Form submission

[shage]

We have a form submission using ajax progress bar on upload, we want to submit the upload using php is that possible?

some reason if i try to post using the vars it gives me nothing with curl, since curl and js dont get along atleast as much as i know

[shage]

holy grail

If its just plain text, there is no reason as to why you should not use MySql, but if it is files that you want uploading, you have to change your server settings to 777 or xxx and use php to upload the file to a directory in your server, and then insert the link automatically generated using php to MySql for referring. Go and see about.com. Search for 'Uploading Files'.

I hope that this helps,

Thanks

[shage]

its upload form to say imageshack etc, we are trying to upload family albums, so no access to db, and the enctype="multipart/form-data" i think is messing it up

[Thauwa]

I did not understand your statement  

[shage]

thanks for trying

[mikesta707]

the enctype has to be multipart/form-data for file uploads to work. I don't quite get what your problem is though. do you have any code that is giving you problems? you said you are using Curl. Why are you trying to use Curl. is the upload happening on your server or someone else's
