Chapter 11 - File Upload

[mica123 0]

I am sorry, Larry, I have to ask yet another question.

I ran the 11.4 script - it works, there are no error messages, only

the successful one "Your file has been uploaded."

 

But there is no file in the destination folder. I use your line of code:

if (move_uploaded_file ($_FILES['the_file']['tmp_name'], "C:\Main\uploads{$_FILES['the_file']['name']}")) {

I have xampp and I created a folder outside xampp as you can see - I have all the permissions.

I tried everything and still no file.

Regards

Sorry, please disregard this question - after countless checks and rewrites it now works -

but I am not sure why. It may have been due to a typing error.

Thanks.

Computers are sometimes a mystery. Glad it's working now, regardless!

Thanks, Larry. Thank you too for writing this book - I very much appreciate the clear explanations and examples.

Sometimes I get confused - for example in this very Chapter it took me some time to work

out that making a new directory in fact means making a new subdirectory in a directory I was supposed

to create beforehand.

Thanks for your patience.

Oh, thank you so much for saying so! I really really really appreciate it!
