Thank you for your reply.
I am very familiar with the PHP code and how to write the page to do the uploads.

What I am asking you for is what do I put in this line of the code:

$uploaddir = 'path to upload folder';

It requires I know the *full path* to my web site, which I don't.  Once within the site I know the folder structure, but I don't know the path for it on the server from the root.

Is there a way you can tell me the path?

Thank you!

Thank you.

Now can you help me get the permissions opened up on both the file upload temp directory and on my site so that I can do uploads?

I am encountering an error that lets me know that at least one of those folders is not writable.
The temp upload directory is /tmp-php/

Thanks,
Sara

That would have been helpful information to know earlier. 

Is there now a support page or area available for discount hosting clients (there never was in the past) that provides information like this or is this forum the best place to do this?

I will try that and get back to you if I have any further issues.

Thanks,
Sara

Hi,

I have done all you have suggested and it still doesn't work.
The error message I get is:

Array ( [image] => Array ( [name] => wwmiccable.jpg [type] => image/jpeg [tmp_name] => /var/tmp/phppeLlcx [error] => 0 [size] => 6230 ) )

This error message shows me that the PHP upload script is trying to use the /var/tmp directory on the server, even though I have created a /tmp-php folder on my site and chmod the settings to 0777.

When I look in my phpinfo() I see that the upload_tmp_dir is set to ./tmp-php/

What can I do to get my temp directory to be recognized properly?

Thanks,
Sara

In face the tmp-php described in tutorial depends from the server ...

According to your error message, try to set right permissions to 777 in the folder you want to upload your files (/images/ for ex.) The file seems to be right uploaded on the server but wrong moved, maybe due to unsufficent permissions on destination folder.

Ok, I deal a read access to your upload script with administrators

Apparently all your images directories are set in 777, so it's ok for uploading files ; but the script try to upload with a full path name (/home/dxxx/...), and maybe he don't find the beginning of the way (due to security rights), so try to set a relative path (spgm/gal/) ...

Otherway all seems to be good, i didn't see specific errors ...

I made a few test last week, and it appears that on your server (discount-hosting) we must define a directory named for exemple tmp , with 777 rights to upload files correctly.
/var/tmp/ exists but is not used due security configuration (safe mode) to upload functions.

Here a little script I test and which works :

if(strlen($_FILES['userfile']['name']) > 0)
{
        $uploaddir = 'tmp/';
        $uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);

        echo "<p>\n";
        if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {
                echo 'Upload du fichier '.$_FILES['userfile']['name'].' reussi !
';
        } else {
                echo 'Upload echoue.';
        }
        echo "</p>\n";
