RE: [PHP] File Upload Form
Hello, I found the solution to my problem here it is. Adding the following line in the HTML seems to make the PHP code work well with the Upload Form. Don't know why but, I guess this makes the document HTML compliant.

[PHP] File upload form
Below is the (very) simple form that I'm using to allow users to upload files to my site: --- Upload Attachment Upload File You are uploading from an unsecure server. Close Window --- The problem that I'm experiencing using the above form is that when some users (and the problem is consistent for those users) submit the above form, *none* of the POST variables are getting passed to the receiving page. None of the hidden variables, not the "input type = file" variable, _nothing_. However, the majority of my users have absolutely no problem using this form. Just those very few. Now, when I change this line: to this: (ie, remove the ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"), all of the POST data gets sent to the receiving page for those users. What is going on? Why is the POST data not getting sent to the server when theENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"is included in the form definition? And why only for a very small subset of users? Thanks for any insight you can give! Chris

I don't know what all of them are using, but most are using IE. I don't know how feasable it would be to get them to all change browsers, especially when they are not having this problem on other sites (Yahoo, for example). The problem is originating from my server. There is some combination of the ENCTYPE of the form and some setting on our server that is causing the POST vars not to get sent. Chris

Another thing of note: These same users that are having problems with my file upload form are not having problems with Yahoo!'s email attachment form (a file upload form as well). So I copied all the same HTML code from that form and put it on my site to test. The only thing I changed was the ACTION field and I modified their "Done" button to be a submit button. When they submitted that form, the POST vars didn't come through either. The only thing I can think of is that there is an issue with our Apache or, more likely, our PHP configuration. However, I'm not sure of where to even start looking. Again, any help would be greatly appreciated! Chris
