try the following:

$fileName = trim($_FILES['uploadform']['tmp_name']);
$tmpName = trim($_FILES['uploadform']['name']);
$fileSize = $_FILES['uploadform']['size'];
$fileType = $_FILES['uploadform']['type'];

$targetPath = "path/to/files"; // set this to what you want

// upload the file...
if (!empty($_FILES['uploadform']['tmp_name'])) {
 if (move_uploaded_file($fileName, $targetPath . basename( $_FILES['uploadform']['name'] ))) {
  echo "It worked.";
 } else {
  echo "It failed";				
  if (file_exists($_FILES['uploadform']['tmp_name'])) {
   unlink($_FILES['uploadform']['tmp_name']);
  }
 }
}

CHMOD the directory ($targetpath) where you will be uploading your file at.

First of all, you should enable display_errors and set error_reporting to E_ALL.

After doing that, you'll note that PHP is trying to tell you the problem at hand: there is no such index of 'uploadform' in the $_FILES array because that's not what you called the INPUT file element; you called it 'userfile'.
