Little problem with new file name function

[eluser]CroNiX[/eluser]
Because of this:

Code:

$url = base_url($this->upload_dir . '/' . $file);
        
$uri = $url . '.' . $ext;
if(file_exists($uri))

Code:

$uri now = http://yoursite.com/some_dir/the_file.ext

It should be a filepath

Code:

/the/file/path/to/the_file.ext

, not the full url. It's a file on the filesystem, not a web resource.

PHP Manual: file_exists()
