cant get copy or move_uploaded_file to work

Im trying to get an image upload script to work within a session file.....i can get it to work on a single page without any other script....but i need to have the image upload facility built into a add product form....so the script is currently sitting in a session file at the same point as where the fields are all validatedd....i've tried using copy and move_uploaded_file.

I know the structure of the code is probably not great but i cant seem to find out why it wont work.

$subimgfile is the variable name for $_FILES['imgfile']['name']
and $subimgfiletype is the variable name for $_FILES['imgfile']['type']

re: cant get copy or move_uploaded_file to work

You need to troubleshoot your code. I don't know what those system calls do and what tempnam() does or what you're trying to do with image facilities and add product forms.

Maybe you can describe your problem in a more technical way?

Note: you do know that $_FILES['imgfile']['name'] is only the name of the file, not where it is stored on the server, right? see $_FILES['imgfile']['tmp_name']

Hi,

Thanks for pointing that out.....i kind of knew that but still didnt realise that was my porblem....which it was sot thanks.

The only part i cant get to work now is the resizing

$subimgfile is the $FILES['imgfile']['name'] and
$subimgfiletmp is the $FILES['imgfile']['tmp_name']

I presume this will only work for jpegs....is there a resize script that will work for both gif and jpegs....cheers.

you could try PHP’s GD library.
