thanks, Dash. I'm sure that would work, but i'm try to set up a page that
allow a user to upload pictures for use in a photo gallery that i've
scripted (i know i'm reinventing the wheel here). a user might have 50 or a
100 pics, and to upload one by one may be a bit tedious.
does someone have an alternative approach that accomplishes what i'm trying
to do? from what i've read, $_FILES seems to contain an associative array.
i'm not sure what that means, but perhaps that's things off.
i got this from a comment in the docs:
The $_FILES variable is not very well documented. Beware that it contains an
associative array:
array(1) {
["File"]=>
array(5) {
["name"]=>
string(12) "brahhh.jpg"
["type"]=>
string(11) "image/pjpeg"
["tmp_name"]=>
string(14) "/tmp/php2Uyz0c"
["error"]=>
int(0)
["size"]=>
int(36950)
}
}
it seems that $_FILES['userfile'] has a default size of 5. but i'm not sure
how to...comprehend this. any ideas on how to get around this?
thanks.
