获取上传文件的真实路径

I need to get the aboslute path of a file uploaded by the user in PHP. How can I do that? Im doing this cause I need to post the information to an API via cURL

The file path is stored in the $_FILES array - just apply realpath to that

realpath($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']);

A few points:

• Check that the file is the uploaded file with is_uploaded_file
• Move it to a new location using move_uploaded_file
• The API you're after will want a url for the file - rather than a file path - assuming the api is not on the same server
