[PHP] File Upload Issues

[Shad Kaske]

I was hoping to get a bit of help with a strange file upload issue that I am having. Below is a simple form that I am using as an example. The output from the $_FILES array follows that. The thing that I am unable to resolve is the fact that the file upload returns the name of the file the user is uploading, but will not give me the tmp_name or the type. I am having this problem with this form and another as part of an application I am working on, however, I have another form with 2 file upload fields that works normally.

HTML FORM:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="test.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="2048">
Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file" size="25">
<input type="submit" value="Send File" name="submit">
</form>

PHP CODE & OUTPUT:
code:
echo "Temp Name: " . $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] . "<br>";
echo "File Name: " . $_FILES['userfile']['name'] . "<br>";
echo "File Type: " . $_FILES['userfile']['type'] . "<br>";

output:
Temp Name:
File Name: news.pdf
File Type:
