[PHP]
$filename = basename($_FILES['file_upload']['name']);
//echo $filename;

//$filetype = $_FILES['file_upload']['type'];

//if($filetype != '.csv')
//$error["fileext"] = "Please upload a .csv file";

if(empty($filename))
$error["filename"] = "The name of the file was not found.";

if(empty($error))
{
$newfile = "/tmp/" . $filename;
//echo $newfile;
$result = @move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file_upload']['tmp_name'], $newfile);
if(empty($result))
$error["result"] = "There was an error moving the uploaded file.";

}
[/PHP]



Regards Brad
