Upload Image into specified directory and generate link into form...

[wispas]

Not sure if this is possible but what i want to do is have a form field and a text input:

 

<form name="myForm">
<input type="text" name="img_url" id="img_url" />
</form>

 

There will be a upload button next to it and when selected will allow user to select file and upload to a folder called 'images' - it will then generate a link with full directory path and if possible will automatically add the link inside the input field...

 

does anyone know if this is possible and would be so kindly show me how to do it. thanks!

I believe no one is going to do jobs for you, but I can give you a hint. Use Google, you can start by searching tutorials about file upload.

Haha - can you do it... lol.

 

Simple enough i managed to get a upload script working:

 

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="upload.php" method="POST">
Please choose a file: <input name="uploaded" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form> 

 

<?php
$target = "images/";
$target = $target . basename( $_FILES['uploaded']['name']) ;
$ok=1;


if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded']['tmp_name'], $target))
{
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded";
}
else
{
echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.";
}

?> 

 

It does not display the image and link when i have uploaded the image. Anyone know why?

Sure I can do copy paste from that site: http://www.tizag.com/phpT/fileupload.php

But I have moved over to frameworks about half year ago and I use pre-made classes.
