uploading a image but error of undefined index

Question

I have a form in which i have to upload the image by its category and move the selected category image to specific folder but when i submit the form the following error occurs ( ! ) Notice: Undefined index: pic in C:\wamp\www\movies poster admin\insertform.php on line 26 the pic is the name of the file but don't know why it did not get the value I know this is a very basic question but i don't know why this error is coming

        $imageprice=$_POST['imageprice'];
        $imagedescription=$_POST['imagedescription'];
        $type=$_POST['category'];

        if ($type="celeb") {
            $uploadDir = 'C:/wamp/www/Movies Poster Site/celeb/'; //Image Upload Folder
            $fileName = $_FILES['pic']['name'];
            $tmpName  = $_FILES['pic']['tmp_name'];
            $fileSize = $_FILES['pic']['size'];
            $fileType = $_FILES['pic']['type']; 
            $filePath = $uploadDir . $fileName;
            $filename = $fileName;
            $ext = pathinfo($filename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
            //$date = date_create();
            //$fileName= date_timestamp_get($date).".".$ext;
            $filePath = $uploadDir . $fileName;
            if (isset($fileName)) {

                # code...

            $result = move_uploaded_file($tmpName, $filePath);
            }
            if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc())
            {
                $fileName = addslashes($fileName);
                $filePath = addslashes($filePath);
            }

`

`$sql="INSERT INTO celeb ". 
        "(image_name,price,description,Type) ".
        "VALUES ".
        "('$filePath','$imageprice','$imagedescription','$type') ";
        mysql_select_db('poster');
        $retval = mysql_query( $sql, $connection );
        if(! $retval )
        {
            die('Could not enter data: ' . mysql_error());
        }
        else
        {
        echo"   <div class='end'>";
        echo "Data Entered";
        echo"</div>";
        mysql_close($connection);
        }

Here is the form

<form method="post">
<div class="insertform">

<!--         <input  type="text" placeholder="image.jpg" name="imagename" id="imagename"><br>
 -->

        <input  type="text" name="imagedescription" id="description" height="300px"><br /><br>


<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">

</div>

you need to add `enctype='multipart/form-data'` to your form as one of the paramaters. Else the form will not post the file/image data. — Schalk Keun, Mar 19 '15 at 07:18
