Cannot upload files using php 4

Anon

Hi,

I'm trying to upload files using php4. I've got as far as posting the form data to the php page and the file does upload. The problem I have is that the temp file name is always 'none' and the file size is always 0. I've tried changing the php.ini temp location to another folder.

I'm running the ISAPI filter on W2k.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Try this in your codes:

$dir = "the targeted directory"
$file_name = $HTTP_POST_FILES["file_name"]["name"];
$tmp_file = $HTTP_POST_FILES["file_name"]["tmp_name"];
if (is_uploaded_file($tmp_file)) {
copy($tmp_file, $dir . $file_name);
}

Thanks for that. Still get the same though. The original filename and the file type are set, just the size and temp name are not. Almost as if php cannot create the temp file, although I've checked permissions etc and it should be able to.

I don't know whether what I was trying to do is supposed to work or not...

I was trying to get the form to submit to itslef and have the upload code at the start of the page. If I seperate the same code and put it on a page of it's own it works. Try to submit the page to itself and it doesn't.

Anyone shed any light on this?
