php uploading

okay, I've got me hands on a little bit of code to upload a file ive submitted with a form, which looks something like this :

Code:

if ($img1_name != "") {
        @copy("$img1" , "/home/admin/www/fileupload/$img1_name") 
                or die("Couldn't Upload Your File.");
} else {
       die("No File Specified");
}

I then modified it, with the intention to change the directory i was uploading to, not knowing my whole path, and also to assign a variable which would point to the image to be put into my database

Code:

if ($pic_name != "") {

        @copy("$pic" , $PHP_SELF."/imgs/") ;
                $pic_url = $PHP_SELF."/imgs/".$pic_name;
                $wasuploaded = "1";
}

the file got there okay (i can get name and size etc.) and APPANRENTLY it was uploaded (the $wasuploaded was true) but the copy command didn't seem to do anything.
What i do wrong?

You probably have a file permissions error.

Turn off the error surpression and see what its trying to tell you.

*Leave off the '@'*

Code:

copy("$img1" , "/home/admin/www/fileupload/$img1_name") 
                or die("Couldn't Upload Your File.");
