I have not been able to upload files using PHP. I have looked at some previous threads and modified a few things but still have no joy. The code lines below show what I am trying within a function called by a form posting userfile1 to it. I am quite new to this so I am expecting I am staring right through the problem. Any pointers most welcome.
When the function is run it just sits there for quite a long time and I have been unable to get any erro messages back,
Help!

Hi Eccles,
Thanks for your post. I have actually sussed the problem and finally got everything working.
Problem was in front of me as you say using $_POST instead of $_FILES but it also was related to me uploading three files cruedly from a single form call where I need to unlink the first tmp_file before moving the next one and so on.
Anyway as I said. Thanks. All part of the learning experience.

Hello,
The main problem you have is that you are using the wrong global array. PHP stores uploaded file data in the $_FILES array.
Firstly your HTML upload form tag should have
see here and the action attribute should point to your PHP process script.
You should then be able to access the uploaded file to save it using the $_FILES array, see here.
PHP.net explains this fully but post back here if you are still stuck.
