php file upload error

Hello,
I'm trying to get the below script working, adapted from the manual on
php.net. Although i am getting success file uploading, i do not see the file
in the tempoary area. And i'm not sure where to go as the server confirms
file uploaded successfully. Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.

<?php

if (count($_FILES) )
{
var_dump($_FILE S) ;
}

if (is_uploaded_fi le($_FILES['UploadFile']['tmp_name']))
{
print "<h3>File successfully uploaded.</h3>" ;
print "<a href=\"{$_SERVE R['PHP_SELF']}\">Upload Another?<br>" ;
}
else
{
print <<< __HTMLFORM__
<form enctype="multip art/form-data" action="{$_SERV ER['PHP_SELF']}"
method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_ SIZE" value="10290000 ">
Filename: <input name="UploadFil e" type="file">
<input type="submit" value="upload">
</form>
__HTMLFORM__;
print "<br><a href=\"{$_SERVE R['PHP_SELF']}\">Upload Another?<br>" ;
}

?>

PHP automatically removes the uploaded file from the temporary directory
when the script ends. You have to put the file somewhere else while you
have control over it.
And i'm not sure where to go as the server confirms
file uploaded successfully. Any help appreciated. <?php

if (count($_FILES) )
{
var_dump($_FILE S) ;
}

See these links:
http://www.php.net/move_uploaded_file
http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php
print "<h3>File successfully uploaded.</h3>" ;
print "<a href=\"{$_SERVE R['PHP_SELF']}\">Upload Another?<br>" ;
}

Hi Dave

From the PHP Help file - handling file uploads section:

"The file will be deleted from the temporary directory at the end of the
request if it has not been moved away or renamed."

use copy($userfile, "/place/to/put/uploaded/file");

or similar to move the file (or just rename it), then you will be able to
see it.

I have an upload file input as: <input id="MyFile" style="width:300px" type="File" runat="Server"> This works fine, but I find that if my page doesn't pass validation during postback, the page comes back with all the data intact, except for the upload object. The text box for "MyFile" (my example) is always cleared. Why is that and is there a way to stop that from happening? Thanks,
