    $filetype=$filename["type"];
    $filename=$filename['name']; 
    $filetempname=$filename['tmp_name'];

The array $filename

turns into a string at this line:$filename=$filename['name'];

I'm wondering why you didn't get the error message.



Try another var name instead of $ filename as a function parameter and I'm pretty sure it will work!

First of all install error reporting, on top of the script put this:

ini_set('display_errors', true);
error_reporting(E_ALL);

Then make sure the file type is indeed application/msword 

echo $filetype;


And make sure the path is correct:

echo "resume/".$filename;

Also make sure that:

  • The directory has write permissions.
  • You point the right way
  • Try your way like "./resume/".$filename

  • Try to prefix your path with $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']

if($filetype=="application/msword")

This line won't work because it's almost guaranteed that the browser won't try to determine the type of the mime file. Take a manual if

and it should work.

You should still try to validate the file differently (and absolutely make sure it is not PHP, because that would be a huge security vulnerability).

Try to set display_errors = on, then you will get error messages ;-) Or print some message in the else statement to see if the if condition does not match.

the first item you should check when loading is $ filename [" error "]
