I am attempting to create a form which allows the renaming of a selected file within the form, before submitting the upload.
I created the form with a 'text' field named "new_fileName" in addition to the file-picker.
On the upload.php side, I changed the variable to $newname, and tried a few ways to use that to change the name of the uploaded file. Including using it to replace the ['name'] part of the $filename variable. But so far, no success with anything.
FORM
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title> Rename and Upload Form </title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" />
<br><br>
<input type="text" name="new_fileName" placeholder="Rename File"/>
<br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Rename and Upload" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
upload.php
<?php
$newname = $_POST['new_fileName'];
$filename = $_FILES['file']['name'];
$location = "upload/".$filename;
if( move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $location)){
echo 'File uploaded successfully';
}else{
echo 'Error uploading file';
}
?>
After a bit of tinkering with the 'upload.php' page, this is what ended up working to change the name of the file before submitting the upload form.
This code also adds the file-type extension to the new file name.
(New) upload.php
<?php
$filename = $_POST['new_fileName'];
$name = $_FILES["file"]["name"];
$ext = end((explode(".", $name)));
if($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == 'POST') {
if ($_FILES['file']['error'] > 0) { echo 'Error: ' . $_FILES['file']
['error']; }
if (file_exists('upload/' . $_FILES['file']['name'])) { unlink
('upload/' . $_FILES['file']['name']); }
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], 'upload/' . $_POST =
$filename . "." . $ext);
echo 'File uploaded successfully' ; }
else { echo 'Error uploading file'; }
?>

I am trying to upload a file from one folder on my Pc to another folder on the XAMPP server. Then after uploaded the file must be deleted from the source.
I have written this code which uploads the file to the folder on the XAMPP server but does not remove it from the source and it shows the error "Unlink resource temporarily unavailable".
my code is :
<?php
if (isset($_POST['save'])) {
// destination of the file on the server
$destination = 'uploads/' . $filename;
$file = $_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name'];
$size = $_FILES['myfile']['size'];
$filepath = 'uploads/'.$filename ;
//-------------------------------
elseif (file_exists($filepath)) {
echo '<script type="text/javascript">';
echo ' alert(" Failed, Sanad already exist")';
echo '</script>';
} else {
if (move_uploaded_file($file, $destination)) {
$filename = $_FILES['myfile']['name'];
//$filename = $_POST['myfile'];
//$file_Path = 'uploads.$filename;
$file_Path = 'D:/pic/'.$filename;
echo $file_Path ;
// check if the file exist
if(file_exists($file_Path))
{ unset($filename);
unlink($file_Path);
echo 'File Deleted';
}else{
echo 'File Not Exist';
}
}
}
}
?>

I'm very new to coding.
I'm trying to upload an image (any file for now) in a particular folder.
<?php
$name = $_FILES["file"]["name"];
$tmpName = $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"];
if(isset($name)){
if(!empty($name)){
$location = "uploads/";
$destination_path = getcwd().DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;
if (move_uploaded_file($tmpName,$destination_path.$location.$name)) {
echo "uploaded!";
}
else {
echo "boo";
}
}
else {
echo "please choose a file";
}
}
?>
<html>
<body>
<form action="upload.php" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="file">
<br>
<br>
<input type="submit" value="SUBMIT">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Everything is getting executed properly until the "move_uploaded_file" if-condition. Getting the else-echo-statement("boo")

This issue might have been discussed multiple times but I wanted a simple PHP script to upload a file, without any separate action file and without any checks. Below is my written code:-
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="fileToUpload" id="fileToUpload">
<input type="submit" value="upload file" name="submit">
</form>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo '<p>FILE UPLOAD</p><br>';
$tgt_dir = "uploads/";
$tgt_file = $tgt_dir.basename($_FILES['fileToUpload']['name']);
echo "<br>TARGET FILE= ".$tgt_file;
//$filename = $_FILES['fileToUpload']['name'];
echo "<br>FILE NAME FROM VARIABLE:- ".$_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"];
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
if(file_exists("uploads/".$_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]))
{ echo "<br>file exists, try with another name"; }
else {
echo "<br>STARTING UPLOAD PROCESS<br>";
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], $tgt_file))
{ echo "<br>File UPLOADED:- ".$tgt_file; }
else { echo "<br>ERROR WHILE UPLOADING FILE<br>"; }
}
}
?>
</body>
</html>
I saved it in /var/www/html/phps/ location. But everytime I try to upload the file, I get ERROR WHILE UPLOADING FILE error. What am I doing wrong here. P.S. I have no previous experience of PHP, I just started with bits & pieces from internet.
Thanks

<?php
$target_dir = "uploads/";
$target_file = $target_dir .
basename($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], $target_file)) {
echo "The file ".basename( $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]). " has been uploaded.";
}
else {
echo "Sorry, there was an error uploading your file.";
}
?>
I hope that this thing will work and this is what you are in need of.
<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$image = $_FILES['fileToUpload']['name'];
$tempname = $_FILES['fileToUpload']['tmp_name'];
move_uploaded_file($tempname, "foldername/$image");?>
Im doing a webpage and have a problem with file upload, that changes the file name umlauts into a weird name.
For example when i upload a file called "töö.docx" and look at the name in the uploaded folder, it shows me this "tƶƶ.docx".
When i call out the name of the file in index.php it shows me the correct name "töö.docx".
But after i go into the upload folder and change the name "tƶƶ.docx" manually into "töö.docx" and than call out the name of the file in index.php, it shows me "t��.docx" which is wrong.
Here is the code for upload in index.php:
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<strong>File upload:</strong>
<small>(max 8 Mb)</small>
<input type="file" name="fileToUpload" required>
<input type="submit" value="Upload" name="submit">
</form>
And here is the upload controller code:
$doc_list = array();
foreach (new DirectoryIterator('uploads/') as $file)
{
if ($file->isDot() || !$file->isFile()) continue;
$doc_list[] = $file->getFilename();
}
$target_dir = "uploads/";
$target_file = $target_dir . basename( isset($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]) ? $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"] : "");
$file = isset($_FILES["fileToUpload"]) ? $_FILES["fileToUpload"] : "";
$up_this = isset($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"]) ? $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"] : "";
$file_name = isset($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]) ? $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"] : "";
if (!empty($file)) {
if(isset($_POST["submit"])) {
if (file_exists($file_name)) {
echo "File already exists.";
exit;
} else {
$upload = move_uploaded_file($up_this, $target_file);
if ($upload) {
echo "File ". '"' . basename($file_name). '"' . " has been uploaded";
} else if (!$upload) {
echo "Could not upload file";
exit;
}
}
}
}
I use the variable $doc_list to call out the names of the documents in folder in index.php:
<div>
<?php if (!empty($doc_list)) foreach ($doc_list as $doc_name) { ?>
<tr>
<td><?= $doc_name ?></td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>
</div>
I've set the website charset into utf-8. and i still don't know why it's not displaying the correct file name with umlauts.
Try to add accept-charset="UTF-8" like this:
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" accept-charset="UTF-8">
