Hi everyone
I’m currently learning php and I’m finding it quite difficult :ne:
I’m trying to upload some pictures to the server using php however I keep getting this error:
“Notice: Undefined variable: img1\_name in c:\program files\apache esting\upload.php on line 5
No input file”
Note: I’m testing this on my local machine, I’ve also tested it on the server. And the server does support php.
Here is the html code: (some of these code were from a tutorial)
```auto
Upload example
```
Here is the php code:
```php
20000) {
echo "File size is bigger than 20KB";
exit;
} else {
@copy("$img1","/pictures/$img1_name") or die("No copy!");
}
} else {
die("No input file");
}
?>
Uploaded
File name ,
File size ,
File type .
```
Any help would be great 🙂
