PHP upload file to BLOB

Question

So the issue I am having is it seems I cant send the file I want to the server.

I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, but thought I would ask

 <?

$file = file_get_contents($HTTP_POST_FILES['img']);
print $file;

?>

<form action="" method="post">
<input type="file" name="img" />
<input type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>

what you're trying to achieve with print $file; ?

And use $_FILES not $HTTP_POST_FILES

You need to set the correct enctype to multipart/form-data on the form if you want to be able to upload files to the server:

<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="file" name="img" />
    <input type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>
