I am trying to create a check in my code to see if an image was selected in my form

if(isset($_FILES['image']))

doesn't seem to work, as in it keeps telling me is NOT set even when I select an image to upload. I've heard of using

if($_FILES['image']['name'] != "")

but don't seem that working either...

Help please...thanks.

Did you include [FONT=Courier New]enctype="multipart/form-data"[/FONT] in your <form> tag?

Yes sir.

How about either echoing or logging what's in $FILES just to see if you're actually getting anything, and if so, how the array is indexed and such (remember that array keys are case-sensitive, just in case):

echo "<pre>".print_r($_FILES, 1)."</pre>\n";

// or:

error_log('$_FILES:'.PHP_EOL.print_r($_FILES, 1));
