hello all


i've a problem, serious one.


how can i pass the name of a file upload to a function ?


i need to do the upload of 1 file, but want to use a function, so that the main file stays small

the problem is, when passing the file name, throw the $_FILES super global , is not recognized in the function...

here is the code:


############ the function (or part of it)


function uploadfile ($userfile, $name2file,$uploadir) {
        //userfile is where file went on webserver
        echo 'inside'; <<< ---- debuging purpose
        $userfile = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];

        //userfile_name is original file name
        $userfile_name = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];

echo 'User File name: '.$userfile_name; <<< --- debuging purpose

############## main program ##################33

uploadfile ($_FILES['user_picture'],$_SESSION['valid_user'].'_picture',$USERPICS);

this is the call to the function above

the problem is that inside the function, the file name is not recognized...
when i try to print the filename, is empty ....

any ideas ????

it only works if $_FILSE['user_picture'] is $userfile ......

should i pass the values by reference ?i mean, putting some sort of & ??

cheers and best regars

Bruno
