Hello... <? ... ... ... $pat = array("#", "@", "*", "#", "@", "$","'", "`"); $w= '_'; $pic_name2 = str_replace ($pat, $w, stripslashes($pic_name)); $query = "INSERT INTO Travel_Design (Travel_Design_Num, Season, Date, name, filesize, filetype ) VALUES ( '$Travel_Design_Num', '$Season', '$Date', '$pic_name2', '$pic_size', '$pic_type')"; exec ("cp '$pic' './images/$pic_name2'"); ... ... ... ?> $pic comes from a form...I strip out any unwanted junk( it's better when you want to display the file)....I insert the Data to the Database, including the file's location....and copy the file where it belongs... The actual file is uploaded into a temp directory......you have to copy or move the file from that spot to where you want it...At least with Linux...
