Upload script - Help with an error.

[Imrie]

Ok, i have made some progress. I got a script from about.com however i need a hand adjusting it to my needs. I have done some

Here is the form:

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="script.php" method="POST"> 
Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br> 
E-mail: <input type="text" name = "Author"><br> 
Phone: <input type="text" name = "phone"><br> 
Photo: <input type="file" name="photo"><br> 
<input type="submit" value="Add"> 
</form>

This is script.php:

<?php 

//This is the directory where images will be saved 
$target = "images/"; 
$target = $target . basename( $_FILES['photo']['name']); 

//This gets all the other information from the form 
$name=$_POST['name']; 
$author=$_POST['author']; 
$phone=$_POST['phone']; 
$pic=($_FILES['photo']['name']); 

// Connects to your Database 
mysql_connect("") or die(mysql_error()) ; 
mysql_select_db("imrieimag") or die(mysql_error()) ; 

//Writes the information to the database 
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `CLAAS_Couagar` VALUES ('$name', '$Author', '$phone', '$pic')") ; 

//Writes the photo to the server 
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name'], $target)) 
{ 

//Tells you if its all ok 
echo "The file  has been uploaded, and your information has been added to the directory"; 
} 
else { 

//Gives and error if its not 
echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file."; 
} 
?> 

All is good and working, The thing i need to do to this is:

Add this drop down bar:

<select name="options">
        <option value="CLAAS_Cougar ">CLAAS_Cougar </option>
        <option value="CLAAS_Disco ">CLAAS_Disco </option>
        <option value="CLAAS_Round Baler ">CLAAS_Round Baler </option>
        <option value="CLAAS_Xerion">CLAAS_Xerion</option>

        <option value="John_Deere_Corn_Header">John_Deere_Corn_Header </option>
        <option value="John_Deere_Corn_Seeder">John_Deere_Corn_Seeder</option>
        <option value="John_Deere_Front_Loader">John_Deere_Front_Loader </option>
        <option value="John_Deere_Machine_40">John_Deere_Machine_40 </option>
        <option value="John_Deere_Seeder">John_Deere_Seeder </option>
        <option value="John_Deere_Square_Baler">John_Deere_Square_Baler </option>
        <option value="John_Deere_STS">John_Deere_STS </option>
        <option value="John_Deere_Telehandler">John_Deere_Telehandler </option>
        <option value="John_Deere_Tiller">John_Deere_Tiller </option>
        <option value="Lexion">Lexion</option>
        <option value="Livestock_Trialer">Livestock_Trialer</option>
        <option value="Manure_spreader">Manure_spreader </option>
        <option value="Manure_Tanker">Manure_Tanker</option>
        <option value="Miscellaneous">Miscellaneous</option>
        <option value="New_Holland_NCR">New_Holland_NCR</option>
        <option value="New_Holland_TG">New_Holland_TG </option>
        <option value="Plough">Plough</option>
        <option value="Truck">Truck</option>

   </select>

And the info will be submitted to a table in the name of the option value of the dropdown bar.

Lastly i need to upload 2 files at once.

Thanks for your help!!!!!

Dont need any resrictions etc. at this time. Just another upload field.

scripts.php

<?php 

//This is the directory where images will be saved 
$target = "images/"; 
$target = $target . basename( $_FILES['photo']['name']); 

//This gets all the other information from the form 
$name=$_POST['name']; 
$author=$_POST['author']; 
$phone=$_POST['phone']; 
$options=$_POST['options'];
$file1=($_FILES['file1']['name']); 
$file2=($_FILES['file2']['name']); 
$pic=($_FILES['photo']['name']); 

// Connects to your Database 
mysql_connect("") or die(mysql_error()) ; 
mysql_select_db("imrieimag") or die(mysql_error()) ; 

//Writes the information to the database 
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `CLAAS_Couagar` VALUES ('$name', '$Author', '$phone', '$pic', '$options', ''$file1', '$file2')") ; 

//Writes the photo to the server 
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name'], $target)) 
{ 

//Tells you if its all ok 
echo "The file  has been uploaded, and your information has been added to the directory"; 
} 
else { 

//Gives and error if its not 
echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file."; 
} 
?>

Only thing to do is to set up file1 and file2 upload path and upload them like pic.

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['pic']['tmp_name'], $target)

}	
} else {

if ($success) {		

mysql_connect("","imrieimag", "");

mysql_query($query);	
}
}
?>

The directory uploads is chmodded to 777.

error:

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/uploads/aw14.zip) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/fhlinux164/m/mysimtractor.com/user/htdocs/form3.php on line 29

I'm sure it is, but I'm willing to bet that you're not refering to /uploads. In fact, I bet that directory doesn't even exist.

If you begin the path with a forward slash, then you're specifying the absolute path. The absolute path to the "uploads" directory is probably something like /home/your_username/public_html/uploads/ or something like that. Either use $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] to begin an absolute path, or just use a relative path.
