What is wrong with this.. It is driving me nuts.

iNod · 08-23-2005, 02:37 PM

Hello,

I am trying to upload a image to uploads directory

PHP

PHP Code:

      $att_path = "/home/user/public_html/directory/uploads/";

    $uniq = substr( md5(uniqid (rand())), 0, 10 );

    $ext = strtolower( substr($_FILES['thumbnail']['name'], -3));

    move_uploaded_file($_FILES['thumbnail']['tmp_name'], $att_path."/".$uniq.".".$ext);

    $thumbnail = $att_path."/".$uniq.".".$ext; 

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/programming/117987-what-is-wrong-driving-me-nuts.html

I removed my username and directory name due to security reasons.

HTML

Code:

<input name="thumbnail" type="file">

Maybe somebody else can find something wrong.

Make sure your <form> tag has this:

enctype="multipart/form-data"

in it.

lol, once i readed in a book, that is little line is easy to remember
enctype="multipart/form-data", but some times you can easily forget about it too,
now i really think that the author sure was right, and i'll be just making a note of that.
