This is really an exciting and informative stuff being published here, I may not be surprised to see the different kind of reactions from peoples as some may like it and some don’t.

I believe the error is due to the fact that your $target_path variable is a URL instead of absolute path. Give that a try and let me know if it solves your problem.

I’m trying to use this, but I keep getting a 404 error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in
/home/caronthegerman/loldmypants.com/pictures/uploader/upload.php on line 73

On line 73, I have
$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploaded_file']['name']);

and $target_path is
$target_path = “http://www.loldmypants.com/picturearchive/useruploadstrue”;

This is like the 5th uploader I’ve tried and I have no idea what I’m doing wrong. Gah…
