How to get the information about the uploaded file in the receiving Script?
This receiving PHP script can get the information of the uploaded file using the predefined array called $_FILES. PHP arranges this information in $_FILES as a two-dimensional array. We can retrieve it as follows.
$_FILES[$fieldName][‘name’] – It represents the file name on the browser system.
$_FILES[$fieldName][‘type’] – It indicates the file type determined by the browser.
$_FILES[$fieldName][‘size’] – It represents the size of the file in bytes.
$_FILES[$fieldName][‘tmp_name’] – It gives the temporary filename with which the uploaded file got stored on the server.
$_FILES[$fieldName][‘error’] – It returns the error code associated with this file upload.
