Please do anyone know how I can rename a file while uploading it?
This is my senario:
I upload form content into a database along with the file name of a picture file. Note, I store only the file name of the picture file in the database, the actuall file is stored in a folder on the server. This works perfectly.
However if two users have their picture files named the same way (e.g my_picture.jpg) only the first guy can upload. The second guy will have to change his file name or may actually end up deleting the first guys picture.
Is there a way I can dynamically rename pictures during the upload irrespective of what the user might have called his file?
Thanks all

I think using rename("/tmp/tmp_file.txt", "/~path/file.txt");

Or see also move_uploaded_file()
