How to Upload File in PHP
Here is simple example about how to do a file upload using PHP. First let’s create the HTML page for upload form.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 | <html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Upload Form</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Simple Upload Form</p>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="p_upload_file.php">
<label>
<input type="file" name="file_upload" id="file_upload" /><input name="submit" type="submit" value="Upload"/>
</label>
</form>
<p> </p>
</body>
</html> |
HTML Upload Form
Save it with name upload.php. Next, we will create the PHP script called p_upload_file.php that handle the file upload. Here is the code.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | <?php // script name: p_upload_file.php if ($_FILES["file_upload"]["error"] > 0) { echo "Error: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["error"] . "<br />"; } else { echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["name"] . "<br />"; echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["type"] . "<br />"; echo "Size: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["size"] . " bytes<br />"; echo "Stored in: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["tmp_name"]; } ?> |
On PHP there is $_FILES array that hold items uploaded to the particular script via the HTTP POST method. The $_FILES['file_upload'] above is associated with input tag name ‘file_upload’ on our previous HTML upload form.
Above code I’ve taken from http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_file_upload.asp. Every file upload on PHP, the file actually will be saved first on your server default temporary upload folder. On my machine the result would be like below.
Upload: Sakkc_logo.gif Type: image/gif Size: 8090 bytes Stored in: C:\xampp\tmp\php20B0.tmp
I upload Sakkc_logo.gif file and after uploaded will be saved on C:\xampp\tmp\php20B0.tmp. You can move the uploaded file with move_uploaded_file() function on PHP. For example I want to copy the uploaded file to my web root folder, so the code will be like below.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 | <?php // script name: p_upload_file.php if ($_FILES["file_upload"]["error"] > 0) { echo "Error: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["error"] . "<br/>"; } else { echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["name"] . "<br/>"; echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["type"] . "<br/>"; echo "Size: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["size"] . " bytes<br/>"; echo "Stored in: " . $_FILES["file_upload"]["tmp_name"] . "<br/><br/>"; // move uploaded data to web root folder if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file_upload"]["tmp_name"], getcwd() . "/" . $_FILES["file_upload"]["name"])) { echo "Your uploaded file now moved to " . getcwd() . "/" . $_FILES["file_upload"]["name"]; } } ?> |
The sample result will be like below.
Upload: stock_raw.xls Type: application/vnd.ms-excel Size: 35328 bytes Stored in: C:\xampp\tmp\phpD5B0.tmp Your uploaded file now moved to C:\xampp\htdocs/stock_raw.xls
Now your file will be moved to your web root folder and you can process it for later purpose.
