Okay i want people to be able to upload some minor files to my site. I wrote a simple php uploader.
I made an html file upload.html and wrote it like this:
<html>
<body>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="2000000000000000" />
Choose a file to upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

Then a php file uploader.php and wrote it like this:
<?php
  {
// Where the file is going to be placed
$target_path = "uploads/";

/* Add the original filename to our target path. 
Result is "uploads/filename.extension" */
$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
$_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name']; 
  {
$target_path = "uploads/";

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
    echo "The file ".  basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']).
    " has been uploaded";
} else{
    echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}
  ?>

And when i upload a simple picture file just to test it, it brings me to a balnk page without the error message or confirmatino message, and the file isnt uploaded to /uploads. Is this because this isnt allowed? Or am i doing something wron?

File uploading scripts are not allowed on free hosting. Please use ftp or our own file manager to upload files.

If you want to create a page that allows users to upload files to you, here is the solution:

Check out http://www.uccs.edu/~formmail/

If you are familiar with code, you can use his script in your page to send an upload to your email.  You can use this to allow your users to send attachments to your email. 

I have used it and it works.....  until the university takes it down.

Good luck.
