 He!

 Don't use the function 'copy', but 'move_uploaded_file'.

  Steve,
 
  When you use input type=file the web server uploads the file to a
  temporary directory which it must have write access to, i.e. the user
  that the httpd process is run as must have write access to /php/tmp.
 
  To my knowledge there is no way of allowing the httpd process to write
  to that directory using your ftp users/password. Bear in mind that you
  could change the temporary upload directory from /php/tmp to /tmp.
 
  do you have full access to you box or only an account?
 
  hope this helps
 
  ciao
  Andre.

The directorys will still need the permissions set so anyone can read/write
to the directorys (Using chmod if using linux)
