JonathanAnon Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Working on a housing database, eight text fields (i.e. easy) and 6 images required for each record. I've read through a lot of posts here before and the general opinion is to upload the file to a folder and then include a text field in the database to give the path to the file (as opposed to using a BLOB and uploading the image directly to the database). I have my code prepared to do this BUT - what way should I handle the folders, should I create a folder for each record, should I just have all the images in one folder... what's the best practice on this?

fenway Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Just create a single folder per "filetype", then santize the file and include the UID in the filename.
