How can the uploaded file be directed to a specific target URL using PHP?

To direct an uploaded file to a specific target URL using PHP, you can first save the uploaded file to a specific directory on the server using move_uploaded_file() function. Then, you can use the header() function to redirect the user to the target URL with the uploaded file as a parameter. 

// Save the uploaded file to a specific directory
$target_dir = "uploads/";
$target_file = $target_dir . basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]);
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $target_file);

// Redirect the user to the target URL with the uploaded file as a parameter
$target_url = "http://example.com/target.php?file=" . $target_file;
header("Location: $target_url");
exit();
