Php file upload is not working

Question

I'm trying to upload some images to server. But when i submit the form it will not write the file in the directory. I don't know how to get the exception in php(I'm new to php).

code :

$target = "assets/images/";
$target = $target . basename( $_FILES['file1']['name']);
//Writes the file to the server
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file1']['tmp_name'], $target))
{
  $uploadRes=true;
  echo "sucess";
}
else {
  $uploadRes=false;
  echo "failed";
}

Edit:

Html :

 <form class="form-horizontal" id="addpost" method="GET" action="" name="newpost">
        <div class="control-group">
            <label class="control-label" for="form-field">Post Title</label>
            <div class="controls">
                <input type="text" id="form-field" placeholder="Post Title" name="Post_title" value="" />
             </div>
         </div>

                </option></select>
             </div>
           </div>

     <div class="control-group" style="float:left; margin-right:25px">
        <div class="controls"><button type="submit" class="btn btn-info">
        <i class="icon-ok bigger-110"></i>
        <input type="submit" value="" id="posubmit" style="opacity:0"/>Submit</button>
        <button type="reset" class="btn"><i class="icon-undo bigger-110"></i>Reset</button>
        </div>
     </div> 
     <div id="resp" style="float:left; margin-top:5px">
        <img id="loading" style="visibility:hidden;" src="assets/img/ajax-load.gif" width="16" height="16" alt="loading" />
      </div>
     </form>

I'm submitting the form with ajax.. Any help would be appreciated.

So you upload something to your directory through php? You can also upload it in the server. I asked a question like this: stackoverflow.com/questions/19359101/… I used this: bytes.com/topic/php/insights/… Just a comment. This shouldn't solve your problem but still just wanted to let you know. Maybe it is a solution cause you can choose a directory to save it in. — Loko

You have a random 0 knocking about also, after $uploadRes=false;. — Albzi

your form tag in html should be like the following :

<form class="form-horizontal" id="addpost" method="GET" action="" name="newpost" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
