Upload function not running - El Forum - 11-04-2009

I'm building a simple form to mail script. It's supposed to attach a userfile to the mail.
Code:
function index()
    {
        if(isset($_POST['submit']))
        {
            //rules to <form> Setting $this->data['status']) if rules are broken

            $this->data['content'] = "form";
            $this->load->view('templates/standard', $this->data);

            if(!isset($this->data['status']))
            {

                echo "testing upload";   //This one echoes like it should.
                $test = do_upload();  //The print_r() test gives nada.

                print_r($test);


            }
        }
        else
        {

            $this->data['content'] = "form";
            $this->load->view('templates/standard', $this->data);
        }
    }






//function I'm wrestling form input : <?php echo form_upload('userfile', ''); ?>
    function do_upload()
    {
        $config['upload_path'] = './assets/temp/applications/';
        $config['allowed_types'] = 'txt|odt|doc|pdf';
        $config['max_size'] = '100';
        $config['xss_clean'] = TRUE;
        
        $this->load->library('upload', $config);
    
        if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload())
        {
            $error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
            return $error;   //test
        }    
        else
        {
            $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
            return TRUE;   //test
        }
    }

Edit, What am I doing wrong here?

Don't you need to use
Code:
$this->email->attach()
from the email class?

Edit: sorry - is the upload not working at all? Have you set the enctype of the form correctly?

hi pass form file name to then it will upload you files and also you call your class parameters properly

Code:
$test = $this->do_upload();

<input type="file" name="upload" />
$this->upload->do_upload('upload');

I think so. form_open_multipart('test') gives:
Code:
<form action="http://www.-----.com/test" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

Its stated in the user_guide that upload will assume that there is a field called userfile. So the call should work without passing the field name

yes it will work fine if you field name is "userfile" that is default filename parameter in upload library if you defining you own field name just like upload or uploadfile then you have to give field name as parameter in do_upload() function you can check user_guide it is also there
