It isn't made very clear on the website as the HTML markup hasn't been included in the code box. What you should do is copy the complete thing, like this: (I've also added the <html> tags as these were missing from the original script)

Code:

<?php 

$max_size = 15; //Your maximum file size(in mb); 
$direc_copy = "uploads/"; //Directory to copy to 
//Seperate with a comma 
$accepted_file_list = "video,image"; // the files types you will allow to be copied, Possible options are: 
//text,image,audio,video,application 

$accepted_file_list = explode(",",$accepted_file_list); 
$max_size = (($max_size * 1024) * 1024); 
$submit = $_POST['submit']; // get the submit 
if (isset($submit)){ 
       $filename = $_FILES['file_upload']; //get the file details 
    $mime_type = explode("/", $filename['type']); //get the first bit of the mime type 
     if (($filename['size'] > 0) and ($filename['size'] < $max_size)){ //check if a file actually exists. 
        if (in_array($mime_type[0], $accepted_file_list)){//check if the file is in the accepted_file_list array 
            copy($filename['tmp_name'], $direc_copy . $filename['name']); // copy the file 
            $message = "Your file has been uploaded."; //message if copied 
            }  
            else { 
                $message = "Filetype not supported"; //message if filetype not supported 
                } 
        } else { 
            $message = "File is outside of the allowed boundaries"; 
            } 
} 
?> 

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>

<form action="uploader_test.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="fileuploader" id="fileuploader">
<input type="file" name="file_upload" id="file_upload">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>

<?php echo($message . "<br>" . "The link is " . $direc_copy . $filename['name']); ?> 

</body>
</html>

You would copy and paste all of the code into a plain text document and save with a filename of 'uploader_test.php' then upload it. Also make sure you have a folder called 'uploads' in the same directory as the script.
