Hi,
that's not a problem to specify where the uploaded file has to be moved
after upload. As you specify for each user a personal directory in the
system, you just need to use a function like move_uploaded_file() to
move the uploaded file to this directory. Each uploaded file goes to,
let's say, /tmp (the directory specified in your php config), and
inherits from a unique filename. This filename is contained in the
$_FILES array available in the script which handles the upload. So if
you have a form containing a file upload field called "file", you can
retrieve the filename of the newly uploaded file using:
$_FILES['file']['tmp_name'] (if the upload went successfully).
You can then simply use:
move_uploaded_file( $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],
'/path/to/user/personal/dir');
This will work even if multiple users are uploading a file at the same
time, as the $_FILES array will contain the info related to a single user.
I hope I've been clear enough...

Hello again;
I have a question about upload temp dir as defined in php.ini;
I have been working on a project that has registered users, each having
a user space portion of the web site file system. I want them to be
able to upload images and such and have the stuff transfered to their
own user spaces. With one up load temp dir designated, how do I
insure that the uploaded files get to the correct destination?
Or, is it possible to designate more than one up load temp dir in
php.ini. (that would be the best solution)
This situation is not a virtual host environment, but one site that
will be using ssl.
I am using Apache on unix based host and am aware that php
assigns a temp name to files that are uploaded, but if different
users are uploading files concurrently, there could be a confusion
as to where each file should be transfered to.
I do not know where else to look for an answer to this question
at present.
Any knowledgeable response appreciated.
Thanks in advance:
Jeff K.
