Yuk! Use code tags - can't read that.

The problem is that C:\Documents and Settings\Sando\Desktop\boys.gif is a file on your desktop. It works on localhost, because that file exists on your desktop. You need to upload the boys.gif file to Bluehost and change the line that opens that file.

EDIT (AFTER EXAMINING YOUR CODE FURTHER)
Just wondering, are you trying to upload a file. It seems to me like you are, and sadly, fopen will only work on the server. To understand how to upload files to a PHP script, read this article by Tizag.

Well, Thank you FlashCreations for answering!!!

I am not trying to upload to the server rather to insert into a db
but after reading the file name and size from the tmp folder on the server.

otherwise, I could have used move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], to store on the server ...

please help

[FlashCreations]

So what exactly do you want? Insert the file name into a db?

[JRM]

try moving that directory somewhere below or in public_html (doc root).
Then access it there.

[FlashCreations]

If you are trying to create an uploader, look into PHP file handling and uploading on W3Schools to learn more. If not, simply follow my and JRM's advice: upload the image to your web root (or a folder inside of it) and then change your fopen so that it reflects the new location of the file.
