$uploadfile = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'];

which comes out as...

/web/demo/translation/index.html

which seems correct,
[color=blue]
> And what is the error?[/color]

that's just hte point, [error] => 0 - but the line that's throwing the
error is:

if (move_uploaded_ file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile))
{

I have had this code working before on another server, so what am I
doing wrong? Please! Any comments at all would be useful!

:-)

Many thanks,

Amy

here's the whole code

---------------------

<?php

session_start() ;

?>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1" />

</head>

<?php

// In PHP versions earlier than 4.1.0, $HTTP_POST_FILE S should be used

$uploaddir = '/web/demo/translation/';

$uploadfile = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'];

print ($uploadfile);
print ($_FILES['userfile']['name']);
print "<pre>";
print_r($_FILES );
print ("name: " . $uploadfile);

if (move_uploaded_ file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile))
{

$msg = "File (" . $_FILES['userfile']['name'] . ") is valid, and
was successfully uploaded. ";

//print_r($_FILES );
$jobid = time();
$rename = $jobid . $_FILES['userfile']['name']; //or $rename =
$username;
$file_name = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
$read_extension = explode(".", $file_name);

$info = array($rename, $_FILES['userfile']['type']);
session_registe r('info');
session_start() ;
} else {
$msg = "File did not upload successfully, close window and try
againn";
$msg = $msg . print_r($_FILES );
}

?>

<BODY bgColor=#ffffff >
etc. etc.

and the output is this:

------------
