Answer 1

Thanks guy, it all helped.

My solution was to make a variable with the extension, and then use that through out the file.

//Check file extension
$path = $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"];
$ext = pathinfo($path, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);

and then

move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], "files/$id/$id.$ext"
