How do I reference HTTP_POST_FILES for the filename?

[AlbertAguirre]

I am uploading a file and I want to get the filename.

I thought this worked but I was WRONG!:

HTTP_POST_FILES["fieldname"][name]
- or -
HTTP_POST_FILES["fieldname"]["name"]

Nope, no good.

How do I do it?

HTTP_POST_FILES? does that exists?

don't you mean HTTP_POST_VARS ?

think this may be what you mean ...


if (is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {
$upload_file = file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']);
echo "found this file: $uploaded_file";
}else {
echo "bugger all here";
}
