PHP - Problem With Photo Uploading Form

Hello:

I wanted to learn how to add a file browse/save and send photo to a contact form.

Form works fine, but I am trying to add this so a user can upload and send a photo of his or her artwork along with the contact information.

Can someone tell me how this work? My other attempts failed so I'm trying to start with a clean form.

This is the code I currently have:
Code: [Select]
<?php

$error = NULL;
$myDate = NULL;
$FullName = NULL;
$Address = NULL;
$City  = NULL;

$Phone = NULL;
$Email = NULL;
$Website = NULL;
$Comments = NULL;

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

$myDate = $_POST['myDate'];
$FullName = $_POST['FullName'];
$Address = $_POST['Address'];
$City = $_POST['City'];
$State = $_POST['State'];
$Zip = $_POST['Zip'];
$Phone = $_POST['Phone'];
$Email = $_POST['Email'];
$Website = $_POST['Website'];
$Comments = $_POST['Comments'];
 
 if(empty($FullName)) {
   $error .= '<div style=\'margin-bottom: 6px;\'>- Enter your Name.</div>';

 }

Hi,

I am working on a registration login system and after a person registers and logs in, they will get the option to upload a profile picture. The picture and registration info will need to be in two different tables. I want to know the best way to associate the two (registration info and photo) so that I know who's picture goes with what registration info? I thought about IP address, but a user might register on one computer and login and upload a photo on another computer. 

How do I use curl to upload an image to this form?
Code: [Select]
<?php
//define a maxim size for the uploaded images in Kb
 define ("MAX_SIZE","100"); 

//This function reads the extension of the file. It is used to determine if the file  is an image by checking the extension.
 function getExtension($str) {
         $i = strrpos($str,".");
         if (!$i) { return ""; }
         $l = strlen($str) - $i;
         $ext = substr($str,$i+1,$l);
         return $ext;
 }

//This variable is used as a flag. The value is initialized with 0 (meaning no error  found)  
//and it will be changed to 1 if an errro occures.  
//If the error occures the file will not be uploaded.
 $errors=0;
//checks if the form has been submitted
 if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) 
 {
  //reads the name of the file the user submitted for uploading
  $image=$_FILES['image']['name'];
  //if it is not empty
  if ($image) 
  {
  //get the original name of the file from the clients machine
  $filename = stripslashes($_FILES['image']['name']);
  //get the extension of the file in a lower case format
   $extension = getExtension($filename);
  $extension = strtolower($extension);
  //if it is not a known extension, we will suppose it is an error and will not  upload the file,  
//otherwise we will do more tests
 if (($extension != "jpg") && ($extension != "jpeg") && ($extension != "png") && ($extension != "gif")) 
  {
//print error message
  echo '<h1>Unknown extension!</h1>';
  $errors=1;
  }

 //$_FILES['image']['tmp_name'] is the temporary filename of the file
 //in which the uploaded file was stored on the server
 $size=filesize($_FILES['image']['tmp_name']);

//compare the size with the maxim size we defined and print error if bigger
if ($size > MAX_SIZE*1024)
{
echo '<h1>You have exceeded the size limit!</h1>';
$errors=1;
}

//we will give an unique name, for example the time in unix time format
$image_name=time().'.'.$extension;
//the new name will be containing the full path where will be stored (images folder)
$newname="images/".$image_name;
//we verify if the image has been uploaded, and print error instead
$copied = copy($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], $newname);
if (!$copied) 
{
echo '<h1>Copy unsuccessfull!</h1>';
$errors=1;
}}}}

//If no errors registred, print the success message
 if(isset($_POST['Submit']) && !$errors) 
 {
  echo "<h1>File Uploaded Successfully! Try again!</h1>";

 <!--next comes the form, you must set the enctype to "multipart/frm-data" and use an input type "file" -->

hi,

i'm trying to create simple form that will also upload only xml data.

first, the user will need to upload an xml document only by clicking submit, the data will be posted to the server and the user will be redirected to uploader.php. This PHP file is going
to process the form data and do all the work.


#upload.php

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>

<body>

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST">

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="500" />
Please select the correct file that you require to create an XML export.
<br/>
<label for="uploadfile">Filename:</label>
<input name="uploadfile" type="file" size="100"/>
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />

</form>



</body>

</html> 


second, i'd like to process the data and post the information to another php document that will parse the xml document.

this particular file is not getting past the first if statement. i'm not really seeing why???


#uploader.php

<?php
//File upload restrictions parameters
//Will only restrict to allowing xml documents to be uploaded


if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "application
/xml")
    {
    if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
        {
        echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
        }
    else
        {
        echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
        echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
        echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
        echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";


//Save the uploaded files to a directory
//If the file already exists with the same date stamp, do not upload
        if (file_exists("../upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
            {
            echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
            }
//If the file does not exist, create a new entry
        else
            {
            move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
            "../upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
            echo "Stored in: " . "../upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];
            }
        }
    }
//Create an error messag
else
    {
    echo "This is an invalid file. Please make sure an XML document has been selected to upload. Thanks.";
    }


// make an error handler which will be used if the upload fails
function error($error, $location, $seconds = 20)
{
        header("Refresh: $seconds; URL=\"$location\"");
        echo '<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"'."\n".
        '"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">'."\n\n".
        '<html lang="en">'."\n".
        '       <head>'."\n".
        '               <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">'."\n\n".
        '               <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css">'."\n\n".
        '       <title>Upload error</title>'."\n\n".
        '       </head>'."\n\n".
        '       <body>'."\n\n".
        '       <div id="Upload">'."\n\n".
        '               <h1>Upload failure</h1>'."\n\n".
        '               <p>An error has occured: '."\n\n".
        '               <span class="red">' . $error . '...</span>'."\n\n".
        '               The upload form is reloading</p>'."\n\n".
        '        </div>'."\n\n".
        '</html>';
        exit;
} // end error handler

?>


third, once the simple file parses the information.. i'd like to display a dropdown menu that will allow a person to select what entry they'd like to be displayed, namely page to be redirected to.


#dropdown.php

<?php
$drop = $_REQUEST['dropdown'];
?>



<html>
<body>

<form action="results.php" method="POST" name="links">
<select name="dropdown" value="options">
<option value"form.php">Select a Format</option>
<option value="1.php">1</option>
<option value="2.php">2</option>
<option value="3.php">3</option>
<option value="4.php">4</option>
<option value="5.php">5</option>
</select>

<br/>
<br/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit Query"/>

</body>
</html>


fourth part I, based on the above information... the user should have a page with a include("livesearch.php") for 1.php, but i will place livesearch.php code below...

#livesearch.php

$target_path = $target_path . basename($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name']);


$xmlDoc=new DOMDocument();
$xmlDoc->load("uploader.ph");

$x=$xmlDoc->getElementsByTagName('link');

//get the q parameter from URL
$q=$_GET["q"];

//lookup all links from the xml file if length of q>0
if (strlen($q)>0)
    {
    $hint="";
        for($i=0; $i<($x->length); $i++)
             {
            $y=$x->item($i)->getElementsByTagName('PPC');
            $z=$x->item($i)->getElementsByTagName('url');
                if ($y->item(0)->nodeType==1)
                    {
                    //find a link matching the search text
                    if (stristr($y->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue,$q))
                        {
                        if ($hint=="")
                            {
                            $hint="<a href='" .
                            $z->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue .
                            "' target='_blank'>" .
                            $y->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue . "</a>";
                            }
                    else
                            {
                            $hint=$hint . "<br /><a href='" .
                            $z->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue .
                            "' target='_blank'>" .
                            $y->item(0)->childNodes->item(0)->nodeValue . "</a>";
                            }
                        }
                        }
            }
    }

// Set output to "no suggestion" if no hint were found
// or to the correct values
if ($hint=="")
    {
    $response="no suggestion";
    }
else
    {
    $response=$hint;
    }

//output the response
echo $response;
?> 

fourth part II, the above code will be part of 1.php... this part of the form will ideally return a livesearch query from the uploaded xml document for the checked boxes by an element's name.

#form.php

<html>

<head>

<script type="text/javascript">
function showResult(str)
{
if (str.length==0)
  {
  document.getElementById("livesearch").innerHTML="";
  document.getElementById("livesearch").style.border="0px";
  return;
  }
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
  {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
  xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
  }
else
  {// code for IE6, IE5
  xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
  }
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
  {
  if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
    {
    document.getElementById("livesearch").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
    document.getElementById("livesearch").style.border="1px solid #A5ACB2";
    }
  }
xmlhttp.open("GET","livesearch.php?q="+str,true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>

</head>


<body>

<?php

echo "<form>
Please place element1 # to search:
<input type='text' size='30' onkeyup='showResult(this.value)' />
<div id='livesearch'></div>
</form>";


// This is to collect box array value as global_variables is set off in PHP5 by default
//
// variable that will send $box information from the checkboxes named getXMLbox to
// an variable array
$box=$_POST['getXMLbox'];
        if(empty($box))
                {
                echo("These are the boxes that WERE not selected: $box");
                }
        else
                {
                $N = count($box);
                echo("These are the boxes that ARE selected: $N ");
                        for($i=0; $i<$N; $i++)
                                {
                                echo($box[$i] . " ");
                                }
                }

while (list ($key,$val) = @each ($box))
        {
        echo "$val,";
        }

echo "<form method=post action='simple.php'>";
echo "<table border='0' cellspacing='0' style='border-collapse: collapse' width='100' >

<tr bgcolor='#ffffff'>
<td width='25%'><input type=checkbox name=getXMLbox[] value='element1'></td>
<td width='25%'>&nbsp;element1</td>
</tr>

<tr bgcolor='#ffffff'>
<td width='25%'><input type=checkbox name=getXMLbox[] value='element2'></td>
<td width='25%'>&nbsp;element2</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td><br/></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td colspan =6 align=center><input type=submit name=SubmitForm value='Submit Query'></form></td>
</tr>
</table>";

?>


finally, i'd like to parse the data with a php5 function and display the xml information onto the screeen or have a dialog box open up for a person to save as.


#simple.php

<?php
/*
we will use simpleXML to transfer xml data
to parse and read xml data
*/

//load the xml file to $file
$file = ($_FILES["file"]["name"]);

#load xml data
$xml = simplexml_load_file($file) or die ("The connection to could not load the XML document. Please try again. \n");

#display the entire document
echo ('$xml');
?>

so basically, i'm a bit lost and not getting the right outcome that i'd like. can someone please assist?

many thanks.

Hello. My question for majority is very simple but not for me...

 

I would like to change photo for other at the top on the subpage in this link http://www.grimlord.eu/index_pl.php?src=gallery&sub=koncertowe

Here is good http://www.grimlord.eu/index_pl.php?src=galeria

What I can do? I used index.pl.php file

 

 

This is my attempt to make an upload script to upload images to my own website.
Code: [Select]
<?php
$ch = curl_init("http://*******.com/imgupload.html");  
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
            array('file'=>"@/home/user/mypic.jpg",
      'submit'=>'Submit'));
$postResult = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
print "$postResult";
?>The working upload form I'm trying to post to:
Code: [Select]
<html>
<body>

<form action="upload_file.php" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="file">Filename:</label>
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" />
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

</body>
</html>
Why doesn't this work?

Hi - I use PHP and CodeIgniter to create a Form which allows the user to amend and then submit the

dates and locations. It looks like this:

Code: [Select]
Pick Up ID Location        Date 1    Date 2    Date 3 Date 4 Remove?


1            Canmore                  1 April           1 May        1 June    1 July      Delete


In order to facilitate easy searches and DB management the Dates Table

looks like this:


Code: [Select]
puid locationid dates
1      1           1331668779
15      1           1383668779
12      1           1311746700
5      1           1321746641
16      2           1381668779
9      2           1331746700

Every date falls within the same DB column.

Using Group_CONCAT in the query and EXPLODE in the view , It all works very

well for pivoting the dates into a horizontal display.

The resulting array which feeds the form looks like this:

Code: [Select]
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [location] => Banff
            [locationid] => 1
            [TheDates] => 1311746700,1321746641,1331668779,1383668779
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [location] => Canmore
            [locationid] => 3
            [TheDates] => 1311746700,1321746641,1331746641,1371668779
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [location] => Collingwood
            [locationid] => 4
            [TheDates] => 1311746700,1321746641,1331746641,1371668779
        )



As you can see TheDates for each location is held in a comma delimited

string. They are exploded out such that they can be placed into the view

using this code:

View

Code: [Select]
<?php 
foreach ($pickupdates as $item) {
  $theDates = explode(',', $item['TheDates']);
 ?>
 <tr align="center">
  <td width="100" align="center"><?php echo  $item['locationid'];?></td>
    <td width="100" align="center"><?php $data = array('name'=>$item['location'], 'size'=>20,'value' => $item['location']); echo form_input ($data); ?></td>

></td>

  </tr>
<?php  ;} ?>

</table>

At this point things stop working properly. The form presents the data fine however my amends to the form do  not update the Database.  I get an error saying invalid argument of the 'Foreach'  in the model code below. I know that my model does not work and is flawed. I am not sure how to properly construct the $Data array in the CI form so that my update controller and update model ( Data Access )  amend the fields correctly bearing in mind the nature of the data structures and the fact that it is being presented in a converted Human readable date yet stored as date stamps. 

Controller:

Code: [Select]
function Updatelocation(){
$this->MPickup->Updatelocation();
redirect('admin/pickup_detail','refresh');
}


Model

Code: [Select]
function Updatelocation(){
if( isset( $_POST['locationid'] ) ) {
  foreach( $_POST['locationid'] as $pickupid=>$location) { // ERROR; "Invalid Arguement provide in Foreach"
   $data = array(
'locationid' => db_clean($_POST['locationid']),
'dates' => db_clean($_POST['$theDates[0]']),
'dates' => db_clean($_POST['$theDates[1]']),
'dates' => db_clean($_POST['$theDates[2]']),
'dates' => db_clean($_POST['$theDates[3]']),
   );
  $this->db->where('locationid', $locationid);
   $this->db->update('pudates',$data);
$this->session->set_flashdata('message', 'Table Updated');
}
}
else echo "Update Failed";

}





If ANY ONE  can provide me a steer in the right direction I will be forever

grateful !!

Many Thanks !!

I am trying to get pics uploaded and stored into my database. Problem is, I am not that great with HTML and have just been Copy/Pasting tags to get forms I like and editing where I think things should go. I am pretty sure it has something to do with the html tags I am using, because by itself it works fine, but when I Copy/Paste that code to where, I think, it should be on my registration form, the if statement that checks for type and size regulations always returns false. It must have something to do with the form/post/submit button combo being pasted into, the working, registration form page.

This is my working upload test code
Code: [Select]
<html>
<body>
<form method = "post" enctype = "multipart/form-data">
<label for = "file">Filename:</label>
<input type = "file"   name = "file"   id = "file" />
<input  type = "submit" name = "Submit" value ="Submit">
</form>

<?php
if (!empty($_FILES['file']))
{
if ((( $_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif") 
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg"))
&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 5000000))
{
   if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
     {
     header("Location: http://www.drink-social.com/error.php?upload=".$_FILES["file"]["error"]);
exit();
     }

else if (file_exists("/var/www/pics/".$_FILES["file"]["name"]))
{
header("Location: http://www.drink-social.com/error.php?upload=exists");
exit();
}

move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "/var/www/pics/".$_FILES["file"]["name"]);
}
}
?>
</body>
</html>
Now, this is what my registration page, after I Copy/Paste the sections together, looks like:

Code: [Select]
<html>
<body>
Please enter your details below:
<br />
<form name = "Details" method = "post">
<br />
Username: <input type = "text" name = "Username">
<br />
Password: <input type = "text" name = "Password">
<br />
Name: <input type = "text" name = "Name">

City: <input type = "text" name = "City">
<br />
State: <input type = "text" name = "State">

Now let's get those daily deals...

It gets past checking to see if post is empty, but when it gets to see if there is a file, it returns false and brings me to my error page and says there was no file selected...? I am clueless, please advise Thanks in advance, and sorry so long!

Hello, iv found some guides on how to make this form with restrictions, but some of them are not working.

Problems that im having with this:
1) It uploads an image even if its size is bigger than the MAX_SIZE (it shows a message that the file size is too big but uploads anyway) (if i pick a file thats not jpeg/png/jpg/gif it wont upload tho).
2) When i press submit button w/o selecting any files, it gives me the message that file was uploaded. (do i need to add an 'else' in the if(isset) part?)
3) Dunno how to explain this, but when pick some non-image file and click submit, it gives me that the file type is bad (witch it should), however when i choose an image file right after this and click submit again (it says that type is bad again), if i pick same image file for the 3rd time and click submit it gives me the message that it was uploaded.
Same if i do it backwards:
I) pick image, submit - "file uploaded"
II) pick non-image, submit - "file uploaded"
III) pick non-image, submit -"bad type"

Heres the code that i have (i left it with comments, idk if i should have removed them or not):

<?php
//define a maxim size for the uploaded images in Kb
 define ("MAX_SIZE","20"); 

//This function reads the extension of the file. It is used to determine if the

         if (!$i) { return ""; }
         $l = strlen($str) - $i;

Hello:

I would like to know how I can add the option to upload JPGs and/or PDFs to the form I have.

I believe I will need to allow 3 uploads once the whole form is done, but I'm trying to keep it small as I learn this.

Currently, the form saves the data to the database, and emails the results to a contact. This is fine - just what I need to do most of the time.

However, what I'm interesting in doing for this form is to allow the end user to upload/attached JPGs and/or PDFs and save then to the database (and I believe I will need to save the files in a folder on the server, I have one called "EmailedImages"),
and then email the results to the contact, including links that will allow the contact to click and download the attached JPGs and/or PDFs.

I haven't done this before, so can someone point me in the direction of how to do this, or should an example with the code I use:
Code: [Select]
<?php

$error = NULL;
$myDate = NULL;
$FullName = NULL;
$Email = NULL;

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

 $myDate = $_POST['myDate'];
 $FullName = $_POST['FullName'];
 $Email = $_POST['Email'];

 
 if(empty($FullName)) {
   $error .= '-- Enter your Full Name. <br />';
 }
 
 if(empty($Email)) {
   $error .= '-- Enter your Email. <br />';
 }

if($error == NULL) {

$sql = sprintf("INSERT INTO myContactData(myDate,FullName,Email) VALUES ('%s','%s','%s')",

                        mysql_real_escape_string($myDate),
                        mysql_real_escape_string($FullName),
                        mysql_real_escape_string($Email);

                        
  if(mysql_query($sql)) {
  
    $error .= 'Thank you for contacting us.';
    
mail( "email@mywebsite.com", "Contact Request",

"Date Sent: $myDate\n Full Name: $FullName\n Email: $Email\n",
"From: $Email" );
  }
  else {
    $error .= 'There was an error in our Database, please Try again!';
  }
}
}
echo '<span class="textError">' . $error . '</span>';

?>



<form name="myform" action="" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="myDate" size="45" maxlength="50" value="<?php echo date("F j, Y"); ?>" />


Full Name: <input type="text" name="FullName" size="45" maxlength="50" value="<?php echo $FullName; ?>" />
Email: <input type="text" name="Email" size="45" maxlength="50" value="<?php echo $Email; ?>" />


<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />

</form>

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

I know it's very messy, I'll probably end up rewriting it but this is what I get after supplying the right fields and uploading an image for the want section:

Code: [Select]
Number of offer titles:1
number of want titles:1
cat: 1
title: This is the title
message: None still testing it!
want_no_values: 1
offer_no_values: 1
w img name:
want1ptswant1pts
The only bit that is of any use is the name section:

Code: [Select]
w img name:
Nothing is recieved and the file is not uploaded!! I probably have missed something out but I am very new to php so please help!!

Thanks

I have been spending the majority of this week figuring out why my files are not showing up at my upload location that I set up in my newly created simple upload form. It just seems like php doesn't like me at all. Here is what my code looks like below.

Code: [Select]
<?php 
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['thefile']['name'], $upload_file))
$destination = "/www/zymichost.com/m/t/l/mtlproductions/htdocs/";
$upload_file = $destination . basename($_FILES['thefile']['name']);{
echo "Your file has been uploaded successfully!";
}/* else {
  echo "Your file did not upload successfully. Check to make sure your file meets the requirements and then try again.";
  print_r($_FILES);}*/?>

I have the orange marked areas commented out due to the unexpected T_ELSE error thing. What do I do to get my files to show up at my upload location when I use my upload form? Thanks!

Hi,

I have a strange problem with uploading files. My script was working fine on the test server but since moving to the live server it isn't working. Here is a printout of the FILES variable:

Code: [Select]
Array
(
    [file] => Array
        (
            [name] => filename.ppt
            [type] =>
            [tmp_name] =>
            [error] => 1
            [size] => 0
        )

)
Does anyone know what the problem might be? The error message that comes back is 'Invalid file'.

Code: [Select]
function upload_ppt_files() {

echo 'print_r($_FILES) = '.print_r($_FILES).'<br />';

global $CFG;

if (($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint") && ($_FILES["file"]["size"] > 100))
  {
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
{
$CFG->message = "Error code:". $_FILES["file"]["error"];
manage_ppt_files();
}
  else
{

if (file_exists("../../uploads/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
  {
$CFG->message = $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists.";
manage_ppt_files();
  }
else
  {
  move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "../../uploads/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$CFG->message = "File uploaded successfully.";
manage_ppt_files();
  }
}
  }
else
  {
$CFG->message = "Invalid File.";
manage_ppt_files();
  }

}

I am having trouble getting my upload file to work...

Form HTML:
Code: [Select]
<form action="" method="POST">
<input type="file" name="file" />
<input type='"submit" name="upload" value="Upload" />
</form>

PHP:
Code: [Select]
if($_POST["upload_avatar"]){
$upload_path = "images/users/";
$file = $_FILES["file"]["name"];
$extension_types = array("gif","jpg","jpeg","png");
if($file){
$filename = stripslashes($_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$extension = getExtension($filename);
$extension = strtolower($extension);
$size = filesize($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"]);
if(in_array($extension, $extension_types)){
if($size <= $max_file_size){
$file_search = glob($upload_path . strtolower($username) . '*');
array_map("unlink", $file_search);

$file_name = $upload_path . strtolower($username) . "." . $extension;
$copied = copy($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $file_name);
if (!$copied){
$r_error = "Upload has failed";
}
}
else{$r_error = "File too big";}
}
else{$r_error = "Unknown file extension";}
}
else{$r_error = "No file chosen";}
}

Every time, it gives me the "No File Chosen" error.  It doesn't seem to be actually uploading the file... I hope this isn't just some stupid thing I am looking over, can someone help me?
