HOW to upload to two places?

[MOzgaf]

this is what i have so far but it uploads to the first location but not second.

$newname = dirname(__FILE__).'/upload'.$myvar;
	  $newcopy = dirname(__FILE__).'/copy'.$today.$myvar;
      //Check if the file with the same name is already exists on the server
      if (!file_exists($newname)) {
        //Attempt to move the uploaded file to it's new place
        if ((move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded_file']['tmp_name'],$newname))) {
           echo "It's done! The file has been saved as: ".$newname;
        } else {
           echo "Error: A problem occurred during file upload!<br>";
        }
		if ((move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded_file']['tmp_name'],$newcopy))) {
           echo "It's done! The file has been saved as: ".$newcopy;
        } else {
           echo "Error: A problem occurred during file upload!";
        }

where the second location prints the file name with a date.
thanks in advance.

Try this:

<?php

	$newname = dirname(__FILE__).'/upload'.$myvar;
    $newcopy = dirname(__FILE__).'/copy'.$today.$myvar;
	
    
    if (!file_exists($newname)) {
		if(!file_exists($newcopy)) {
			if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded_file']['tmp_name'],$newname)) 
			{
				echo 'File 1 has been uploaded...<br/>';
				
					if (move_uploaded_file ($_FILES['uploaded_file']['tmp_name'],$newcopy))
					{
						echo 'File 2 too! Lets party! <br/>';
					}
					else
					{
						echo 'but file 2 wasn t? <br/>';
					}
			}
			else
			{
				'File 1 wasn t uploaded so File 2 neither.<br/>';
			}
		}
		else
		{
			echo 'File 2 already exists! <br/>';
		}
	}
	else
	{
		echo 'File 1 already exists! <br/>';
	}
	?>

What does it display?

I think you both miss the concept of "move".

Once you move it once, it is no longer there!

You need to COPY the file if you need another 'copy'.
