I’m not really sure what absolute\_path should be. I tried a few different things, like:

public\_html/livetosk/upload/upload

/home/livetosk/public\_html/upload/upload

</div>

for determining the absolute path (that i was talking about), i have a solution;  
make a .php file containing:

\<?  
echo getcwd();  
?\>

upload this file in the folder you will use the uploader script and see what absolute path it echo’s

I got it. My paths were right, but for some reason my host wouldn’t let me set the folder to the right permissions. I got it working now though. Thank you 🙂
