folder creation and uploads

anf.etienne · February 17, 2009

Hi, i have this code for uploading files onto a server and it works great but im stumped on just 1 thing....baring in mind im a newbie at php lol.

I generate a random number at the start of the code (when the page loads), i have a php form lower down the page that submits to another code with the same page and uploads the images. The problem is the number that is generated when the page loads is never used because when you upload the images it generates another number and creates a new folder. Is there a different way i can do this so just 1 number is generated?

Are you testing to see if the form has been submitted? If not you'll be making a new directory everytime the page loads, not only on form submission

anf.etienne · February 17, 2009

yes i tested to see how it was operating.....

no matter how i lay it out with the submission code on the same page it would create a new folder on reload. So i have had to keep it seperate now im trying to work out a way to route back to the page after submission with the generated number in a variable that i could use after its been made

gevans · February 17, 2009

Add the generated number to a hidden field in your form if you really need to use the 'random number' from a previous page...
