Image not uploading

Can anyone spot anything here that might be causing the problem, it creates a new subdirectory, gives it the name and sets permissions to 777 so I know that parts ok. I think it must be something here. Im uploading 4 images at the same time so I have it in a loop. Its getting the correct names as ive tried printing $_FILES["$filename"]['name'] and it gives the original name of the file im trying to upload. The path is also correct but i get 'Could not upload', is there something ive missed?

PHP: Select all

copy ($_FILES["$filename"]['tmp_name'], "/home/deano/public_html/Images/$advertid/".$_FILES["$filename"]['name']) or die ('Could not upload'); 

Hi djme,
I assume your uploading via a form???

do you have enctype="multipart/form-data" in your form tag??? eg...
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="admin_add_product.php" method="post">

I resolved a similar issue by adding enctype.

The only other thing I could think of is that you don't have permissions set to upload files in your php.ini file, or you have a limit on the file size, it's usually 2Mb...

; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On

Hope this helps.
Jim.

Hi, thanks but ive sorted it now. I can't remember what I did but I think id got the path wrong.

Don't suppose you know how to delete directories? I have subdirectories which I want to delete (they contain pictures). The pictures are set to 644 but the directroies are 777 so I thought I could just delete the entire directory using

unlink($delete_path);

But when i try it, it says warning $delete_path is a directory and doesn't do it. I can delete individual images using it though. Does this just work for files and not directories or do I need to have the images also set to 777 (I didn't think I would because it deletes the images set at 644 since they are in the directory set at 777)

Thanks
