>From http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php : "Files will by default be stored in the server's default temporary directory, unless another location has been given with the upload_tmp_dir directive in php.ini." "$_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] The temporary filename of the file in which the uploaded file was stored on the server." Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-02 12:16:42] jgiglio at smythco dot com Description: ------------ PHP loads entire uploaded files into RAM, which makes the feature useless except for toy websites. PHP should be smart enough to spool large uploads to disk, like CGI.pm does. It would also be very nice if there were a way to get the name of the temp file spooled to, so that the user can be given feedback on their upload as it progresses, but this is not necessary. I'm putting this in as a feature request, because I know you guys don't consider it a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24919&edit=1
