Automate FTP file on server with a simple php upload script

Hello!!

I am very glad to receive your interesting problem. And I am giving some important suggestions.

This is an exclusive script for uploading file into your server.

Here a function isset is used to locate and upload the file from a specific directory. I am giving just the code for uploading the file type of jpeg and gif.  

<?PHP

$upload_dir ="images";
 
if ( isset($_FILES['fupload'])) {
    $file_name = $_FILES['fupload']['name'];
    $file_type = $_FILES['fupload']['type'];
    
    if ($file_type =="image/jpeg" or $file_type=="image/gif")
    {
        copy($_FILES['fupload']['tmp_name'], "$upload_dir/$file_name") or die("Couldn't copy");
        print "<img src="$upload_dir/$file_name"<p>";
    }
}

?>

 

Regards

Shifflett Laurel
