Upload image failed to open stream whilst staying dynamic

[bluns]

Hi guys, I am writing my script so it will work on many setups with little customisation...

Anyways, i want to upload the images to the images/uploads directory but i get a

move_uploaded_file(../images/uploads/1pixel.gif): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in c:\documents and settings\dev\my documents\root\jay\admin\insert_image.php on line 79

and also

Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move 'C:\DOCUME~1\Dev\LOCALS~1\Temp\php38.tmp' to '../images/uploads/1pixel.gif' in c:\documents and settings\dev\my documents\root\jay\admin\insert_image.php on line 79

  $upfile = '../images/uploads/'.$picture1_name;

  if(is_uploaded_file($picture1))
  {
   if (!move_uploaded_file($picture1, $upfile))
   {
  echo 'Could not move file to destination directory';
  exit;
   }
  }

How can i implement this keeping in mind i wish to use this on many setups without customization 🙂

thanks !

First of all (if you want it to work on every server) then you should code with register_globals off. This means that you should use the super-global array $_FILES.

$upfile = '../images/uploads/'.$_FILES['picture1']['name'];

if( is_uploaded_file($_FILES['picture1']['tmp_name']))
{
  if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['picture1']['tmp_name'], $upfile))
  {
    echo 'Could not move file to destination directory';
    exit;
  }
}

Try that, let me know if it didn't work.
