hi can some body help me with this upload concept to upload files to rapidshare from my site i already have the regualr upload to my server through my site which is working (how do we do tat to sites like rapidshare megaupload from my site)

study file uploading with cURL [php.net]

You will need to track rapidshare and other free file hosting site's headers; for which you can use different softwares e.g LiveHTTPheader for Firefox.

Then you will use php-cURL to create artificial process similar to third party site and send your files.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, abhilash0000.

how do they distribute files to many servers at a single click

You can distribute files to many servers in a single click by using processes on the server side. cURL is one tool that was mentioned. Basically you are going to accept a file upload and then distribute it via socket connections on your server that accepted the file upload.

There is an old thread in the PHP Forum Library [webmasterworld.com] that describes a Single form posted to multiple locations [webmasterworld.com] that may get you started.

dear friend, you already got lots of ideas from here to work on... you cannot expect to get a working example of this.. you need to do it...

did you study cURL manual? you will find lots of information to proceed from there. Google PHP CURL LIBRARY; follow the second link on the results; you will definitely find file uploading with cURL examples on this site, I had posted one myself a while ago but dont have its exact url so search it... also try joining their mailing list and ask wherever you are stuck..

Can't you use a post code? For the HTML, do this:

index.html

<form action="upload.php" method="post">
<h1>Upload</h1><br>
<table border="0"><tr><td>
<tr><td>File:&nbsp;<input type="file" name="upload"></td></tr></td></tr><tr><td><tr><td><input type="submit" value="Upload"></td></tr></table>

I don't have the time to make the php, but here's one from w3schools.
upload.php

<?php
if (($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif")
¦¦ ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
¦¦ ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")
&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 20000))
{
if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
{
echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
}
else
{
echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";

if (file_exists("upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
{
echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
}
else
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
"upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
echo "Stored in: " . "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];
}
}
}
else
{
echo "Invalid file";
}
?>
