Move File

NetworkTown.Net · 10-19-2006, 02:56 PM

HI

I need some help, im making a small mod for a script i use and i need the following, when i fill in a form in 2 of the feilds it is a drop down menu that list's all the files in the files directory and the other in the images directory.

So what i want is when i select the two files from each of the files e.g:

File: blabla.txt (would be located in content/uploaded/blabla.txt)
Img: blabla.gif (would be located in images/uploaded/blabla.gif)

I want is when i click submit the script will move the files to one directory down so then it will be located as this:

blabla.txt would then be located in content/blabla.txt
blabla.gif would then be located in images/blabla.gif

Please if you could help me i would be pleased.

(Without seeing your form:) Most likely it would be something like:

Code:

<input name="oldname" type="text"> and <input name="newname" type="text">

If that's how it is, you'd use

PHP Code:

<?php rename($_POST['oldname'], $_POST['newname']); ?>

So it would look like this:

PHP Code:

 
  <?php

 
rename($_POST['image'], $_POST['file']);

 
rename("/images/upload/$_POST['image']", "images/$_POST['image']);

 
 ?>

Something like that?
