thanks so far, but

i get a parse error for the following line:
$file_dir_=_"c:wwwuploads";_// directory where you want file to be uploaded to

yet i have a directory on my C: called wwwuploads

does anyone know the solution? do you not need to place slashes in directory paths?

It should be

$file_dir = "c:\\wwwuploads"; // directory where you want file to be uploaded to

not

$file_dir_=_"c:wwwuploads";_// directory where you want file to be uploaded to

If I was to use this with .ZIP files could I get away with changing this part

if (substr($file_array['type'], 0, 5)=="image") {


To this

if (substr($file_array['type'], 0, 5)==".zip") {


If not how would I do it?

For zips try:


$ftype = $HTTP_POST_FILES['fupload']['name'];
$ftype = substr($ftype, strlen($ftype)-4, strlen($ftype));
if ( $ftype == ".zip" ) {

Do you have PHP installed? Do other PHP scripts work?
