<?php


// filename: upload.form.php


// first let's set some variables


// make a note of the current working directory relative to root.

$directory_self = str_replace(basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']), '', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);


// make a note of the location of the upload handler

$uploadHandler = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $directory_self . 'upload.processor.php';


// set a max file size for the html upload form

$max_file_size = 1300000; // size in bytes


// now echo the html page
