Question

I want to create an uploadscript. This is my JS:

$("#subUpload").live("change", function(){
    var fd = new FormData();
    var file = this.files[0];
    fd.append("subUpload", file);

    $.ajax({
      type: 'POST',
      cache: false,
      url: "script.php",
      processData: false,
      contentType: false,
      data: fd,
      success: function(data){
        alert("Message: " + data);
      }
    });
});

And this is my PHP:

<?php
    if($_FILES['subUpload']['error'] == 0){
        if(is_dir('./files')){
            if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['subUpload']['tmp_name'], '/files/'.$_FILES['subUpload']['tmp_name'])){
                echo"UPLOADED";
            }else{
                echo"FAIL";
            }
        }
        else{
            echo "Uncorrect Path";
        }
    }
    else{
        echo $_FILES['subUpload']['error'];
    }
?>

I always get the message “FAIL”.
I’ve set the folder permission to 777.
Any ideas?

bool move_uploaded_file ( string $filename , string $destination )

you need to give a name to that file not just the folder

see http://php.net/manual/fr/function.move-uploaded-file.php

 (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['subUpload']['tmp_name'], '/files/'.$_FILES['subUpload']['name'])

if more problem check is_dir('/files') until you find the correct way to point to it
