Thanks .. but I think you are saying exactly what I wrote I was
doing .. except that you have used exec("cp $file $path") while I
tried PHP's copy() function .. I don't think that will make a
difference...though will give that a try any way.
Forgot to mention in my previous mail that the directory where I
am trying to copy the uploaded file from /tmp is in 777 mode
already.
