// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Upload')
$upload = new COM("Chilkat.Upload");

// Specify the page (ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, Python, Ruby, CGI, etc)
// that will receive and process the HTTP Upload.
$upload->Hostname = 'www.mywebserver.com';
$upload->Path = '/receiveUpload.aspx';

// Add one or more files to be uploaded.
$upload->AddFileReference('file1','dude.gif');
$upload->AddFileReference('file2','swordfish.xml');
$upload->AddFileReference('file3','sample.doc');

// Do the upload.  The method returns when the upload
// is completed.
// This component also includes asynchronous upload capability,
// which is demonstrated in another example.
$success = $upload->BlockingUpload();
if ($success != 1) {
    print $upload->LastErrorText . "\n";
}
else {
    print 'Files uploaded!' . "\n";
