ive made the changes and this is the following. Very close I think ;-)

Array ( [ud_image] => Array ( [name] => send-out1.jpg [type] =>
image/jpeg [tmp_name] => C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\php1D4.tmp [error] => 0
[size] => 182419 ) ) UPDATE categories SET catname='Hockey Sticks',
image='', parentid='43' WHERE catid='43'


My script is as follows.

$query="UPDATE categories SET catname='$ud_catname',
image='".$_FILES['image']['name']."', parentid='$parentid' WHERE
catid='$ud_catid'";
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Couldn't execute query: " .
mysql_error());
mysql_query($query);
print_r($_FILES);
