PHP - Moved: Open File In Folder Outside Web

Hi, I have a form where a user selects a file to attach to the email. At the moment when you select a file it uploads from the user device.

How do i change this so that a user can attach a file from a folder on the server. For example the folder name is uploadinvoice

so when the user selects the browse button to attach a file it opens up the uploadinvoice folder on the server so the user can select the file from there ?

Thanks 

coding i have at moment

function ValidateEmail($email)

{

   $pattern = '/^([0-9a-z]([-.\w]*[0-9a-z])*@(([0-9a-z])+([-\w]*[0-9a-z])*\.)+[a-z]{2,6})$/i';

   return preg_match($pattern, $email);

}

Hi everyone, I'm still learning, but getting intermediate in PHP now, but it is still challenge to learn. I'm trying to have php check to see if one file inside folder in server, seem I could not get it right, but I tested it on other site, it works, but not this script, I don't understand why it won't work...maybe logical is wrong?

here my code:

	if ($_POST['video']) {
	        $path1 = "UPLOADS/Home/";
        $path2 = "UPLOADS/Breakfast/";
        $path3 = "UPLOADS/Spider/";
	        $scan1 = scandir($path1);
        $scan2 = scandir($path2);
        $scan3 = scandir($path3);
	        $count1 = count($scan1) - 3;
        $count2 = count($scan2) - 3;
        $count3 = count($scan3) - 3;
	        if($count1 > 0) {
            header('location:exist.html');
        }elseif ($count2 > 0) {
            header('location:exist.html');
        }elseif ($count3 > 0) {
            header('location:exist.html');
        }
	

But other site, it works:

	$scan = scandir($path);
$count = count($scan) - 3;
	echo $count;
	if($count > 1){
    echo "Hello yourself!<br />";
}
	

Anyone will help will be appreciate! Thank you!

Gary
