Hi Tracy

Not sure what you are trying to do but when a file is uploaded to a PHP
script by a form then the details are stored in the $_FILES array as
below...

$_FILES['userfile']['name']
The original name of the file on the client machine.

$_FILES['userfile']['type']
The mime type of the file, if the browser provided this information. An
example would be "image/gif".

$_FILES['userfile']['size']
The size, in bytes, of the uploaded file.

$_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']
The temporary filename of the file in which the uploaded file was stored on
the server.

$_FILES['userfile']['error']
The error code associated with this file upload. ['error'] was added in PHP
4.2.0

Check the section on handling file uploads in the PHP manual and the
functions is_uploaded_file() and move_uploaded_file()
HTH
Rich

Subject: [nycphp-talk] regarding image



HI,
I cant understand this:
in a script that is suposed to upload image, i have,
$data = addslashes(fread(fopen($form_data, "r"), filesize($form_data)));
echo $data;
for this i get the following 'echoed':
GIF89a¾
X
‘\\0\\0Ê¢y`üá!ù\\0\\0\\0\\0\\0,\\0\\0\\0\\0¾
X\\0ÿœ©Ëí£œ´Ú‹³Þ¼û†âH–扦êʶî
ÇòL×öçúÎ÷þ ‡Ä¢ñˆL*—̦ó J§ÔªõŠÍj·Ü®÷ ‹Çä²ùŒN«×ì¶û
ËçôºýŽÏë÷ü¾ÿ,(8HXhxˆ˜¨¸ÈØèø)9IYiy‰™©¹¨ð
why is it so?
is there some way where i can save the path of the image in the mysql
database? i mean, i upload a pict from the desktop and have the path to the
directory where i want to save the image. is there a way where i can have
the field in the mysql table as :
image_path
-----------
"the upload dir path i have specified " + "the image name"
so that i can use this as a link to display the image.
if there is a better way to achieve this, plz help me with it.
Thanks
Tracy
