I've written a file upload script... The file input fields are previewpic, secondarypic, and thirdpic.

I'm using the $_FILES superglobal, and move_uploaded_file(); to do the upload.


For some reason, whenever a file containing a space is uploaded, the upload fails.
I really don't want to change the structure of the upload. Is there any way to string replace the spaces for underscores?

I tried str_replace(' ', '_', $_FILES[previewpic][name]); before the move_uploaded_file, but it didn't work.

Any ideas?

Here's The Code:

PHP Code:


        $uploadDir = 'temp_models/';

        $datearr = @getdate();

        $id = $datearr[wday].''.$datearr[mon].''.$datearr[mday].''.$datearr[seconds].''.$datearr[year];

        $uploadFile1 = $uploadDir . $id . $_FILES['previewpic']['name'];

        $uploadFile2 = $uploadDir . $id . $_FILES['secondarypic']['name'];

        $uploadFile3 = $uploadDir . $id . $_FILES['thirdpic']['name'];

        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['previewpic']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile1);

        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['secondarypic']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile2);

        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['thirdpic']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile3); 


WOO! This worked!

PHP Code:


        $uploadDir = 'temp_models/';

        $datearr = @getdate();

        $id = $datearr[wday].''.$datearr[mon].''.$datearr[mday].''.$datearr[seconds].''.$datearr[year];

        $uploadFile1a = $uploadDir . $id . $_FILES['previewpic']['name'];
        
        $uploadFile1 = str_replace(' ', '_', $uploadFile1a);
        
        $uploadFile2a = $uploadDir . $id . $_FILES['secondarypic']['name'];
        
        $uploadFile2 = str_replace(' ', '_', $uploadFile2a);

        $uploadFile3a = $uploadDir . $id . $_FILES['thirdpic']['name'];
        
        $uploadFile3 = str_replace(' ', '_', $uploadFile3a);

        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['previewpic']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile1);

        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['secondarypic']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile2);

        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['thirdpic']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile3);
