I think he meant the error that caused is_uploaded_file to fail. Obviously ERROR is not going to help narrow anything down. Generally it is a lot easier to help someone if you have some idea of what the problem is.

exactly, i didnt mean to cause offence by my "obvious" answer, but the reason people come to the forums is for help and it makes "our" job harder, if we dont know the error message, as this will more than often tell you exactly what is wrong with your script and line number.
I believe this is also in posting guidelines.........
