Problem with PHP file upload/Apache content-type

[Richard Fleming]

We are having problems getting a standard PHP upload program - which runs on other systems to work under Plesk 8.2.1 and Apache 1.3.33.

The upload uses the usual.
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="copyfile.php" method="POST"> but there is never anything in the $_FORM array. After checking to be sure that safe mode was off, and the standard post_max_size,upload(yes),upload_max_size php variables were set, we saw that in the Apache section of phpinfo that the variable Content-Type was set to form/html instead of "multipart/form-data" as in the case when we ran the code on other systems. Moving the code to another domain on the same Plesk controlled server did not work.

We didn't make any changes to the Apache config files, and I don't know how to correct this (or why it occurred in the first place).

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Try something like this:

<?php
$file_dir = "uploadedfiles/"; //PUT A REAL DIRECTORY HERE
$page_name = "index.php"; //PUT THE ACTUAL NAME OF THE FILE HERE


$action = $HTTP_POST_VARS['action'];
if($action == 'upload'){
foreach($_FILES as $file_name => $file_array) {

if (is_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'])) {
move_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'], "$file_dir/$file_array[name]") or die ("Couldn't copy");
echo "file " . $file_array['name'] . " was moved to $file_dir !<br><br>";
}
}
}
?>

<title>A simple file upload form</title>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST" ID="Form1" action="<?= $page_name;?>">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="51200" ID="Hidden1">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="upload" ID="Hidden2">
<p><strong>File to Upload:</strong>
<input type="file" name="fileupload" ID="File1"></p>
<p><input type="submit" value="upload!" ID="Submit1" NAME="Submit1"></p>
</form>

</body>

</html>

See if that helps
