$_GET isnt working!!

seany123 · October 29, 2009

i have this code:


<?php
include('templates/header.php');
require('connect.php');

$albumid = $_GET['album'];
echo $albumid;
?>
<html>
<table cellpadding='7' width='100%'>
	<tr>
		<td>
	<form action='upload.php' method='POST' enctype='multipart/form-data'>
	<input type='file' name='myfile'><p>
	<input type='submit' name='submit' value='upload'>
	<input type='text' name='album2' value='<?php.$albumid?>'>
</form>
		</td>
	</tr>	
</table>
</html>

<?php

//properties of the uploaded file.
$name = $_FILES["myfile"]["name"];
$type = $_FILES["myfile"]["type"];
$size = $_FILES["myfile"]["size"];
$temp = $_FILES["myfile"]["tmp_name"];
$error = $_FILES["myfile"]["error"];

$id = $_SESSION['id'];

//Display album name.
$album = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM albums WHERE id='$albumid'");
$albumarray = mysql_fetch_assoc($album);

if ($_POST['submit'])
{
if ($error > 0 )
die("<font size='4' face='arial'>There has been an error uploading your file, please try again!</font>");
else
{

if($size > 2500000) //conditions for file!
	die("<font size='4' face='arial'>That file is too big!</font>");
else
{
$id = $_SESSION['id'];

$users = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE id='$id'");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($users);

$album2 = $_POST['album'];

$userid = $row['id'];
move_uploaded_file($temp,"store/".$name);
$create = mysql_query("INSERT INTO items VALUES ('', '$userid', '$album2', 'i', '$name', '', '$name')");
echo "Uploaded Complete!!!";
echo "HERE: ".$_POST['album2']."".$_GET['album']."";
}
  }
}

include('templates/footer.php');
?>

when testing this code i use the url: http://localhost/visualupload/upload.php?album=6

im trying to make it so $albumid = $_GET['album'];

and it works because it echo's 6... but as soon as i hit the submit button... it stops working.

Where you have the code

<form action='upload.php'

you need to specify the album id again. So it will be something like

<form action='upload.php?album=$albumid' method='post'

Hope this helps

<?php.$albumid?>

This is not valid PHP.
