How can the problem of missing data transmission be resolved in a PHP form handling file uploads?

When handling file uploads in PHP forms, missing data transmission can be resolved by checking if the file was successfully uploaded before processing it. This can be done by verifying the presence of the file in the $_FILES superglobal array. If the file is not present, an error message can be displayed to the user. 

if(isset($_FILES['file']) && $_FILES['file']['error'] === UPLOAD_ERR_OK){
    // Process the uploaded file
} else {
    echo "Error: File upload failed. Please try again.";
}
