Hi I have this function below - if it reurns false I want to also return the error so 
I can print it in my calling function. Can I do this?
Cheers
Matt
function fileUpload($file) {
  if ($file['type'] == "image/gif" || $file['type'] == "image/pjpeg"){ 
    if (@copy ($file['tmp_name'], "images/" . $file['name']))
      return true;
  }else { 
    return false;
  }
}

$error = "";
function fileUpload($file) {
  global $error;
  if ($file['type'] == "image/gif" || $file['type'] == "image/pjpeg"){
    if (@copy ($file['tmp_name'], "images/" . $file['name']))
      return true;
  }else {
    $error = "Something went wrong";
    return false;
  }
}
if ( ! fileUpload ( $file ) ) {
        echo ( $error );
}
Course, there are numerous other ways of doing this.  I persoanlly use 
two custom functions to handle/display errors.
