It posts the information to a php file, and from there the php works its php magic and the file should magically appear, except that I have very little experience with php and can't seem to figure out what's wrong. Here's the code from the php file, blatantly stolen from a free tutorial site: Code:<?php $target = "upload/"; $target = $target . basename( $_FILES['uploaded']['name']) ; $ok=1; if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded']['tmp_name'], $target)) { echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded"; } else { echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file."; } ?> Here's the code from the HTML upload page, which works perfectly: Code:<html> <body> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="upload.php" method="POST"> Please choose a file: <input name="uploaded" type="file" /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Upload" /> </form> </body> </html> With an HTTPSocket, I have tried posting both the URL path and shell path of the FolderItem I would like to upload, but I am receiving an error each time. I believe it has something to do with the form enctype being "multipart/form-data", but again, I don't have much experience with php. Is there something blatantly obvious that I am missing? It seems simple to me (set form data, post to php page, give php a blowjob while it works its mysterious wonders, and be happy that there's now another file on the server). Judging by the HTML form, it seems like all I would need to post would be a value for "uploaded" (via dictionary). If you see something wrong here, aside from me giving virtual blowjobs to php pages, please please help me out. I'll work on making the upload form more secure in the future, after I've finished reading about php.
