Re: FN-FORUM php upload problem

sounds like the receiving program is trying to access the file directly
on the client machine whereas it should be getting it from it's own
temp directly - you need to use $HTTP_POST_FILES['varname']['tmp_name'].

have you read http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php
thoroughly?
