[PLUG] PHP question

Sun May 19 04:21:09 UTC 2002

OK, I put a phpinfo() at the top of my script and it shows this:

_FILES["file"] Array
(
    [name] => somefile.txt
	 [type] => text/plain
	 [tmp_name] => /tmp/phpQl537A
	 [size] => 56
)

Soooooo...  It looks like PHP knows about the file I uploaded, but for
some reason my script doesn't see it.  When I print the $file and
$file_name variables, I don't get anything.  And /tmp/phpQ1537A doesn't
exist when I look in /tmp.
Thanks for your help.
