Need help with retrieving images...coding is correct according to tutorials

Can someone tell me what I am missing? I have looked at a ton of
tutorials about retrieving images as an image instead of binary from a
file.
I have verified the image goes into the file perfect.

Thanks in advance

<?PHP
require_once('common.php');
session_start();

startFormHeader();

$name = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];

$size = $_FILES['userfile']['size'];
$tempFile = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
if ($userfile=='none')
{
echo "Problem: no file uploaded";
exit;
}

if ($size==0)
{
echo "Problem: uploaded file is zero length";
exit;
}

if (!is_uploaded_file($userfile))
{
echo "problem: possible file upload attack";
exit;
}


$upfile ='showVehicle/'.$userfile_name;

$copy = copy($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'],"showVehicle/".$name);


if(!$copy)
echo "System error: was not able to load image";
else
echo"File uploaded successfully<br><br>";



$grab = "showVehicle/".$name;
$fp = fopen($grab, "rb");
$contents = fread($fp, filesize($grab));

fclose($fp);


footer();
?>

I didnt really look at your code becouse I do not understand the question,
you verified the image goes into a file, so whats the problem?

Before sending $contents to the webclient, you must tell him it's an
image you're sending him otherwise it will show it as text. So use
header() before sending the file content :

<?php
header("Content-type: image/png"); //Header for a PNG file
echo $contents;
?>

Unless I'm missing something, you haven't described the problem. Please tell us
what the problem is and what, if any error messages you get. If your script
works in some cases, but not others, let us know and note the differences.

$userfile is not defined anywhere...
