Description
bool
copy ( string source, string dest)
Makes a copy of the file source to

Note:
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.
| Warning |
If the destination file already exists, it will be overwritten.

rename(), and the section of the manual
about handling file
uploads.
