copy Copies file Description boolcopy stringsource stringdest Makes a copy of the file source to dest. &return.success; <function>copy</function> example ]]> If you wish to move a file, use the rename function. As of PHP 4.3.0, both source and dest may be URLs if the "fopen wrappers" have been enabled. See fopen for more details. If dest is a URL, the copy operation may fail if the wrapper does not support overwriting of existing files. If the destination file already exists, it will be overwritten. Windows compatibility: If you copy a file with no size, copy will return &false;, but the file will be correctly copied. See also move_uploaded_file, rename, and the section of the manual about handling file uploads.
