PHP File Upload Problem

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi, I have written a very simple file upload script but it fails for reasons I can't explain. Hopefully someone here can help me out. I have checked php.ini and file uploads are on with a limit of 10M. Here's the code:

The Form
Code: <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="upload.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" />
Choose a file to upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />
</form>
And the PHP
Code: $target_path = "uploads/";
$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path))
{echo "File has been uploaded";}
else
{echo "The upload did not work.";}
Any help is appreciated. Assuming the target path should be [dir where the form and php are]/uploads - this exists and is 777'd.

Thank you
