===============================================

<?
//grabs the variables

$title = $_POST["title"]; //brief title blurb
$image = $_POST["image"]; // anchor tag for image
$name = $_POST["name"]; // application name
$description = $_POST["description"]; // long description
$file_up = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['name']; // file app upload
#$file_source =$HTTP_POST_FILES['file_source']['name']; // file source upload
$file_image = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file_image']['name']; // screengrab image upload

$file_size = round($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['size'] / 1024)."kbs"; // app file size kbs

#$source_size = round($HTTP_POST_FILES['file_source']['size'] / 1024)."kbs"; // source file size kbs

$kb = 1024; // Kilobyte
$mb = 1024 * $kb; // Megabyte
$gb = 1024 * $mb; // Gigabyte
$tb = 1024 * $gb; // Terabyte
if($file_size < $kb) {
$file_size." B";
}
else if($file_size < $mb) {
round($file_size/$kb,2)." KB";
}
else if($file_size < $gb) {
round($file_size/$mb,2)." MB";
}
else if($file_size < $tb) {
round($file_size/$gb,2)." GB";
}
else {
round($file_size/$tb,2)." TB";
}
$date = date("j F Y");
$addnews =MYSQL_QUERY("INSERT INTO tblZ_test (id,title,date,image,name,description,file_up,file_size,file_image)". "VALUES
('NULL', '$title', '$date', '$image','$name','$description','$file_up','$file_size','$file_image')");
//success...
{

//File has passed all validation, copy it to the final destination and remove the temporary file:
//copy application and upload
copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],"images/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['name']);
unlink($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name']);
//copy source and upload
// copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['file_source']['tmp_name'],"images/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['file_source']['name']);
// unlink($HTTP_POST_FILES['file_source']['tmp_name']);
//copy image and upload
copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['file_image']['tmp_name'],"images/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['file_image']['name']);
unlink($HTTP_POST_FILES['file_image']['tmp_name']);
// print "File has been successfully uploaded!";
//exit;
}
//echo("Description Added!");
?>

Since you already have the name locally thru

$file_image = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file_image']['name'];

why not do

$file_image = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file_image']['name'];
$file_image = str_replace(" ","_",$file_image);
... copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],"images/$file_image");

I wish my computer would do what I want it to do,
instead of what I tell it to do...

That is halfway there (thanks) that does change the final file name
which is great because it strips white space from the file

but the problem that it has is that when the file is uploaded it uploads the file to a size of 0 bytes
I use a getimagesize() on another page to access this file and it throws a cant seek file error obviously because the file is 0 bytes it contains no data. thanks again for your help hopefully someone will know how to make this work.
i ll add the code again with Bastiens suggested changes
if there is something missing to make the bytes upload please add
Thanks again
