$_FILES['userfile']['name']
$_FILES['userfile']['type']
$_FILES['userfile']['size']
$_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']

First once you upload file from browser using <form ...><input type=file
name=userfile>, the filename is automatically renamed by another one and put
down to the upload_tmp_dir and after you move or copy it into your
destination directory.

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile'], string destination) or Copy(string
filename, string destination) rename automatically the picture name to
string destination, and you can set the destination's file extension using
$_FILES['userfile']['type'] or $_FILES['userfile']['name'] using php
function like eregi() for example-
