Uploading the same image to two different folders

[crowden]

Hi,

I'm trying to upload an image to two different directories, one for the regular image and one for the thumbnail.

It moves to the first directory just fine, but won't move it to the second.

It won't even give me an error message other than the one I specified in the ELSE.

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name'], $uploadimage))
            {
                if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name'], $uploadthumb))
                {
                    //run my query to insert into db here
                    if(mysql_query($ins))
                    {
                        $status = "<p class=\"successmsg\">Image was successfully uploaded.</p>";
                        $showform = false;
                        
                        //GET Uploaded Image Size
                        list($width, $height) = getimagesize($img_name);
                    }else
                        {
                            $status = "<p class=\"successmsg\">Image was not uploaded. (sql)</p>";
                        }
                }else//if thumb is not uploaded
                    {
                        $status = "<p class=\"successmsg\">Image was not uploaded. (thumb)</p>";//It gives me this message
                    }
            } 

Is this sort of thing even possible? I need it to go to the two different folders so I can resize them after they've been uploaded.

Thanks for any help!

Maybe try copying the file after uploading it the first time?

move_uploaded_file should semantically strike you as why you can't put it in 2 different folders.

Maybe try copy();

Thanks to both for the quick response.

wonshikee - it doesn't really strike me so.

I thought since it's a temp file that it would be accessible to use more than once. Eh, live and learn.
