The default file upload path is the Temporary directory of your system.
But the problem that I percieve in your case is that when PHP uploads the
file, it gives it a temporary file name ( such as /tmp/shsgtW ). if you are
loooking to store the files in an intelligent manner, I would suggest that
you do not change the file upload path. Let php copy the file where it does
by default. Once the file has been uploaded, copy it to the directory you
want the files to reside in . This way you can also specify a legible name
for the file.
Look in the Uploading files section of the PHP manual and for a good article
on uploadingfiles at phpbuilder.com
hope that helps
