php - Create new folder on upload based on date -

i'm new php , i've written script upload files server appended integer. now, i'm trying adjust script create new folder , name based on date when file uploaded.

i think know need do, i'm struggling syntax.

php:

if(!empty($_files)) {      $temp = $_files['file']['tmp_name'];     $dir_separator = directory_separator;     $folder = "uploads";      $uploaddate = date("m-d-y");     if(!is_dir($uploaddate)) mkdir($uploaddate);      $destination_path = dirname(__file__).$dir_separator.$folder.$dir_separator;      $target_path = $destination_path.(rand(10000, 99999)."_".$_files['file']['name']);     move_uploaded_file($temp, $target_path); } 

any appreciated! thanks.

you should create $destination_path variable first, create folder afterwards. like:

$uploaddate = date("m-d-y");  $destination_path = dirname(__file__).$dir_separator.$folder.$dir_separator.$uploaddate.$dir_separator;  if(!is_dir($destination_path)) mkdir($destination_path); 

or maybe confused $folder , $destination_path $target_path ;)
