thanbks for that!
quite interesting, but I've now got the copy funstion to work using the
following:-
copy($photo, "$dir/1.gif") or die("The file you are trying to upload
couldn't be copied to the server as it already exists click here to return to menu and try
again");
but when I use:-
copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['photo'], "$dir/1.gif") or die("The file
you are trying to upload couldn't be copied to the server as it already
exists click here to return to menu and try
again");
I get:-
Warning: Unable to open 'Array' for reading: No such file or directory in
/usr/blah/blah/blah
any ideas?
