PHP - How to Upload a File to Your PHP Web Server - HTML Form and PHP Script Tutorial.avi HD

This video shows you how to use PHP to upload a file to your PHP web server. I start with the HTML form, that prompts the user to browse for a file to upload. Things to watch for: Use the enctype="multipart/form-data" attribute in your form declaration. If you forget that, nothing will work. The form action must be the name of the php file that processes the form: action="upload_file.php" The method should be POST: method="post" Note that the $_FILES["file"] variable is an array with such goodies as: error, name, type, size, and tmp_file to access;
