Hi I am wondering if the input field with type "file" is automatically uploading files to the server when there is a file selected by the user.
The thing I want is that a user can select files to submit it and that a PHP FTP connection is established to upload the files.
I am not sure if the browser pre-uploads the files to a temp directory on the server or does it do that only when you hit the submit button?
Because if the file is already uploaded to the server it would be unnecessary to use FTP to upload the file again only to a different location on the server.
Basically what I want to accomplish is something similar to what we transfer does. I believe they are not uploading before the user hits the button.
Can anybody point me in the right direction and provide me with some extra info about this matter. Haven't found the desired information yet.
Thanks in advance.
The file is uploaded only once the form is submitted (in the same HTTP POST request as all other form fields). Why don't you try it, to see yourself?
And you cannot use PHP to upload a file via FTP from a client to a server. That's not possible. PHP runs on the server, it cannot access files on a client's machine. See also:

I know for the fact that there is trojan or malware in php which represents itself as an image. And I also know that to filter out the file upload we use extensions such as .txt or .png.
Is there a way to scan the files manually when they are being uploaded into the server using server built-in antivirus or the server doing this kind of tasks automatically for us? ( I mean particularly in cpanel )
thanks
If you are worried about code being uploaded to your server in the form of an image, simply re-encode the image upon upload. A file containing code with an image extension will throw an error when the encoder tries to process it.
I'm using blueimp/jquery-file-upload for file upload. My back-end language is PHP. While user uploaded their docs few files were uploaded without any extension. When i see my file upload tracker those document names are "blob". But it is not possible different users uploading files with same name. So it should be something handled inside bluimp source code. blueimp should change some type of file names to "blob" and those documents are uploaded without any extension in server. Does anyone have an idea about this?
I am uploading the video files with flash uploader object and then convert it into .mp4 format through Zencoder. Firstly file gets uploaded into server folder. All the files with extension .wmv , .flv etc. are gets moved to folder, But when I upload .mov file then, it does not gets uploaded into server folder. Is there need to change any server settings?
You should do this async, upload the file, store it (here you make sure your file is saved properly, and then launch the encoding process).
It seems you may be running into some timeout issues, since no especial treatment is needed for .mov files in php or apache.
