In this file, you can access the uploaded file&#8217;s details through the <code>$_FILES<\/code> superglobal variable:<\/p>\n<pre><br \/>\n&lt;?php<br \/>\nif(isset($_POST['submit'])){<br \/>\n    $file = $_FILES['fileToUpload'];<br \/>\n    echo \"File name: \" . $file['name'];<br \/>\n    echo \"File type: \" . $file['type'];<br \/>\n    echo \"File size: \" . $file['size'];<br \/>\n}<br \/>\n?&gt;<br \/>\n<\/pre>\n<p><strong>That&#8217;s it! By following these steps, you can retrieve the value of an input type file in PHP.<\/strong> You now have access to the file&#8217;s name, type, and size.
