So I never seen anyone use copy to move the uploaded file to it's destination,if you followed any tutorial they would have used this function, very curious did youactually upload anything with copy to the destination?http://www.php.net/m...loaded-file.php Also you need to escape your user submitted data before having it in the query.http://www.php.net/m...cape-string.php You should look at mysqli since mysql is deprecated and will disaper from the near future.http://www.php.net/mysqli

You did not mention what is hppening instead, what does it show, errors. If you have outputs already made it should not send headers second time and show some error. does it show anything? make sure you have error enabled to show all level of error
