echo function will send data to final generated HTML.

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.
