Use $_FILES.

What is $_FILES?

$_FILES is a two dimensional associative global array of items which are being uploaded by via HTTP POST method and holds the attributes of files. These attributes are as follows:

[name] - Name of file which is uploading
[size] - Size of the file
[type] - Type of the file
[tmp_name] - A temporary address where the file is located before processing the upload request
[error] - Types of error occurred when the file is uploading

Here is an e.g.:

<?php
    echo '<pre>';
    print_r($_FILES); 
    echo '</pre>';
?>

<form action="" method="post">
  <input type="file" name="inputfile">
  <input type="submit" value="Upload">
</form>

i want to know one thing.i am using an html tempate.there is no php.ini file.when uploading the file the name is showing.but when trying to print $_FILES('inputfile').it is showing null.i wnt to know what is the issue? if anybody knows a solution pls help. — jaina, Jun 12 '20 at 06:14
