http_upload example

#1 (**permalink**) 09-06-2004

The example that come with upload.php in the HTTP_upload package
creaqtes the follow html:
<html><body>
<form action="/public/reenie/t/t.php?submit=1" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
Send these files:<br>
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000">

<input name="userfile" type="file"> <-<br>
<input name="otherfile[]" type="file"><br>
<input name="otherfile[]" type="file"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send files">

</form>
</body></html>
When I try to use it, I choose a file and then I click "sned files".
Nothing happens. The file does not get sent anywhere. Where is it
supposed to be sent ? Theres nothing anywhere about which directory the
file is supposed to be sent to, as far as I can see, so the example
makes no sense to me.

The code you copied takes care of sending the file. You must have a script
somewhere in the server to deal with receiving it. All you need is inside
the $_FILES variable. Print its values with print_r() and you'll see it
clear.
