now the file that handles the fileupload
is the following

?php session_start();

ini_set('memory_limit', "400M");
ini_set('max_execution_time', "900");
ini_set('upload_max_filesize', "400M");
ini_set('post_max_size', "400M");



$user=$_SESSION['MM_Username'];

$path="video". "\\" . $user . "\\";

if(!(is_dir($path))){
mkdir(dirname(__FILE__) . "\\". $path,0777);
}

  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
    {
    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
    }
  else
    {
    echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
    echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
    echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
    echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";

    if (file_exists($path . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
      {
      echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
      }
    else
      {
      move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
      $path. $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
      echo "Stored !";
      }
    }

?>

You are missing the enctype attribute on your form.
