The code is below:
$desiredPath = 'uploadedFiles/';
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST")
{
print "Picture Info"."<br>";
print_r($_FILES['picture']);
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['picture']['tmp_name'], $desiredPath.$_FILES['picture']['name']))
{
print 'File Upload Successful';
print '<div>';
print '<img width="300px" src="'.$desiredPath.$_FILES['picture']['name'].'">';
print '</div>';
}
else
{
print 'File Upload Failed with error code: '.$_FILES['picture']['error'];
}
}

Answer 1

Your code:
$desiredPath = 'uploadedFiles/';
Have you tested that the directory exists, before moving the file to it?
Code below:
if(!file_exists($desiredPath)) {
mkdir($desiredPath, 0755, true);
}
It's just a suggestion. I was trying to create an upload script myself and that little block of code solved all my problems
