File Upload Problem (Cannot Create Dir)

Think this is a 'gotcha' with file uploads and PHP

Okay, I just know this is going to end in my embarrasment ;)

I chmod -R 777 this dir /var/www/html/site.com/images/

I'm getting this PHP error:

Warning: Unable to create '/var/www/html/site.com/images/': Is a directory in blah

From this code snippet:

if(is_uploaded_file($_FILES['formbigpic']['tmp_name'])) {
 $uploaddir="/var/www/html/site.com/images/";
 $file2write=$uploaddir.$_FILES['name'];
 copy($_FILES['formbigpic']['tmp_name'], $file2write); 
 print("success!");
 exit;
 }

Anyone see the 'gotcha'? I've checked the 'common pitfalls' etc in the manual and cannot work out why it does this?

Many thanks!

Nick

I think I see the error.

$file2write=$uploaddir.$_FILES['name'];

should be

$file2write=$uploaddir.$_FILES['formbigpic']['name'];
