File Upload: Where'd It Go?

MaxD

I'm trying to upload files through my script. I have a form with the proper ENCTYPE, and it submits to my upload script:

function upload(){
  if(!empty($_FILES["userfile"])) { 
    $uploaddir = "./";
    if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["userfile"]["tmp_name"], $uploaddir . $_FILES["userfile"]["name"])) {
      echo("file uploaded");
    } else {
      echo ("error!");
    }
  } 
}

this works fine except I have no idea where the file is going.

"I put a button on it, but I dare not press it for I don't know what it will do"

I've searched my computer for the file that I uploaded and all I can find is the original...

being as such, I can't really change the $uploaddir because I don't know where it's root is.. my htdocs folder, the script's folder, the drive root, on a seperate harddrive, or on some alternate plane of existance.

$path = "the path where you want to pur the file";

//example /usr/files_upload/

if($file_name != "")
{
$dir_fichero = $path . "/" . $file_name;
copy($file_name, $dir_fichero);
}
