Kerry,
While I don't see how this code works on it's own, I'll assume it's
just a segment. There is a superglobal variable that you can use in PHP
called $_FILE. If you write an HTML form capable of uploading a file
then all of the data about the file can be retreieved from the $_FILE
superglobal. You can find more information on this on the PHP website.
I've pasted the think below. Good luck with your project.
