Okay, so I have to move the uploaded file from the temp folder to a
different folder then using PHP, right?
I tried copying a function from my book, but another problem arose:
there is supposed to be an automatic $_FILES superglobal, but this is
not the case for me. It gives me an error when I try to echo something
like $_FILES['upload']['name'] or such.
Once I get aorund this obstacle, I'll be able to try the new temp
folder stuff.
If you know why my $_FILES superglobal isn't working, please help.
Thank you very much

Hi Brian,
An error for echo($_FILES['upload']['name']); does not
necessarily mean that there is no $_FILES superglobal.
The above assumes that you are using a form with <input type="file"
NAME="upload">
Try this
if(!is_set($_FILES))
{
echo("There are no files uploaded\n");
die();
}
foreach($_FILES as $key => $thisfile)
{
echo("For the form input name that is [" . $key . "]\n\n");
echo("Remote file (name) is [" . $thisfile['name'] . "]\n");
echo("Browsers suggested mime (type) is [" . $thisfile['type'] . "]\n");
echo("Actual file (size) is [" . $thisfile['size'] . "]\n");
echo("Server temporary name (tmp_name) is [" . $thisfile['tmp_name'] .
"]\n");
echo("Upload (error) is [" . $thisfile['error'] . "]\n\n\n\n");
}
