Hey lads,
I'm having a bit of trouble uploading an Excel (.xls) file to my webserver via a form on my site.
This is a sample script i copied from some tutorial. I just need to be able to upload a files to a directory.
Nothing too complicated, no need for file validation or any security.
Here is the HTML code i'm using:
Here is the PHP code:
It will upload most file types. I've tried it with word (.doc), jpeg, gif and they all work fine. For some reason Excel files wont upload....
P.S. i know this is an very un-secure script. I'm not worried about that as it is only accessible to admins how have been approved by me.

Here is the HTML code i'm using:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" />
Choose a file to upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />
</form>
Here is the PHP code:
<?php
// Where the file is going to be placed
$target_path = "uploads/";
/* Add the original filename to our target path.
Result is "uploads/filename.extension" */
$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
$_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'];
?>
P.S. i know this is an very un-secure script. I'm not worried about that as it is only accessible to admins how have been approved by me.
