Using HTML POST to upload file via PHP

Question

I am trying to upload a local file to webserver using HTML POST method and PHP. this is my php code:

<?php


if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
$updir = "/var/tmp/";
$upfile = $updir.basename($_FILES['rawexcel']['name']);

if(is_uploaded_file ($_FILES ["rawexcel"]["tmp_name"]))
{
move_uploaded_file ($_FILES["rawexcel"]["tmp_name"], $upfile);

} else {echo "error uploading file ".$upfile;}
} else {echo "not isset post method";}
?>

and HTML code is:

<div class="container" id="upl">
<h4> Upload files</h4>
<form action="upl.php" enctype="mutipart/form-data" method="post">
<p> upload your files to DB</p>
<p><input type="file" name="rawexcel" id ="rawexcel"> 
<input type ="submit" value="Upload" name ="submit"></p>
</form>
</div>

$_FILES["rawexcel"]["error"] shows 0 and from running this peice of code i get

error uploading file /var/tmp    

I guess file name was not retrieved from html?

Answer 1

Error is in enctype:

enctype="multipart/form-data" 

not:

enctype="mutipart/form-data"

Answer 2

You have typo mistake in enctype="multipart/form-data" , instead of this you typed enctype=" mutipart /form-data" . So " mutipart " spelling is need to correct.
