"kyle.php file"
  <form action="./kyleuploadgroup.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"name"flieuploader">
                                  
                                    <font color="#000000">            </font>
                                    <p><label for="file"><font color="#000000">Select a file to upload into the group folder:</font></label>                           <font color="#000000"> <br />
                                    <input type="file" name="userfile" id="file" />
                                    Kyle:<input type="radio" name="pathchooser" id="pathchooser" value="./kyle/">
                                    <label></label>
                                    Group:<input type="radio" name="pathchooser" id="pathchooser" value"./group/">
                                    <br />
                                    <button>Upload File</button></font></p>
                                </form>



The "kyleuploadgroup.php" file
    $upload_path = '$_POST["pathchooser"];';

So, what is the issue, You have pasted your code but are not clear as to what do you want to do with it and where are you getting stuck.

i am having difficulty making the radio buttons influence the path in the php script.
 Kyle:<input type="radio" name="pathchooser" id="pathchooser" value="./kyle/">
                                    <label></label>
                                    Group:<input type="radio" name="pathchooser" id="pathchooser" value"./group/">

Having the selected radio value be put in the php code 
 $upload_path = '$_POST["pathchooser"];';


i get invalid directory
However, when i manually type the path in without using radio buttons, it works perfectly.

The downside to that is i'll have to use 2 different file uploaders on the webpage each with a diffect path. EX)
 $upload_path = './group/';
