File upload form

Hi guys,
I’m trying to create a form with file upload. But I just can’t get it to work.
I created a temp folder in the project directory. I changed the upload_tmp_dir in php.ini to this folder and also in the server connect settings. But the file doesn’t even upload to the temp directory let alone get moved to my sought directory.
Have the php.ini settings of my lampp server anything to do with the server connect settings? Is there something I am missing?
The type of the post variable is set to “File”. In php.ini: “file_uploads=On”.
