    echo "File Size :".$HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['size']."<BR/>";
    echo "File Type :".$HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['type']."<BR/>";
    echo "<img src=\"$path\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\">";

    Before the line

    $path= "pics/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name'];
    PHP:
    Try adding the code:

    if (preg_match(/"\.JPG$/", $HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name'])) {
	$HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name'] = preg_replace("/\.JPG$/", ".jpg", $HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name']);
}
    PHP:
    This basically says that if $HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name'] ends with .JPG then change that .JPG to .jpg

    Sorry, the correct segment would be

    if (preg_match("/\.JPG$/", $HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name'])) {
    $HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name'] = preg_replace("/\.JPG$/", ".jpg", $HTTP_POST_FILES['ufile']['name']);
}
    PHP:
    I had the / outside of the quotation marks

    Here are some code that I use often you can try and or modify it..

    // checking which type of image is
    $imgType = exif_imagetype($_FILES['upload_image']['tmp_name']);
    // catching extention from file name
    // here you can change ext as you want
    if($imgType === 1){
    $ext = ".gif";
    }
    if($imgType === 2){
    $ext = ".jpg";
    }
    if($imgType === 3){
    $ext = ".png";
    }
    $uplDir = "picture/"; // where you want to your image
    $picName = "picture_name";
    $tarPath = $uplDir.$picName.$ext;
    // lets save pic into picture folder
    move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadIn']['tmp_name'], $tarPath);

    image type list http://php.net/manual/en/function.exif-imagetype.php

    tell me if you have any other problem

    To check a file is there all you need to do is use this function is_file('path to file here') that will return boolean (true/false) if it's true rename the file.

    hey dougvcd,
    you can use file_exists($tarPath); before move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadIn']['tmp_name'], $tarPath);
    cheers
