The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

upload.php script not working

Asked by cgustaf in PHP and Databases

Tags: PHP, MySQL

I've got a problem with a file upload script.  The script runs through the first part fine, but the final error message, "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.";  appears.

I have seen a fix for this on Experts and tried to implement it.  But, I could not make it work.

If I could have exact and explicit help with the piece of code needed to be fixed, I'd appreciate it -- i.e. if I could avoid having to guess what you mean.

The form, and upload.php are in the same directory, and the uploaded file shold go to that directory as well.
