nediaz Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Hi I'm a new web developer and I'm working in a website whose goal is upload large image files. The idea is the following 1.- Allow to the user upload large image files(.tiff,.jpg, photoshop extension, corel draw ext,etc). Limit of the files 200mb 2.- Present a status bar when the file is loading 3.- Once the file is loaded show to the user a thumbnail of the image loaded The result would be very similar to the sites: largeformatposters.com, vistaprint.com, etc we don't think to keep the files in the server is just for receiving. I have a account in host dreamhosts How could I carry out this? I need a strategy before of begin to code Regards, Nelson Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/207848-how-to-upload-large-images/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
radar Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 It can be done, first you'll need to check the current upload limit via phpinfo(); if thats not at least 200 megs, you'll need to modify that (but i dont know the code, as ive never had to do it -- part of the beauty of running your own web host, you set it to what you need it). Once you get that out of the line, its some basic PHP to actually upload the image as far as progress bar, im sure it can be done, are you ready to learn AJAX? http://ajaxian.com/archives/asynchronous-file-upload-with-ajax-progress-bar-in-php i just googled this, havent taken a look at it but it might get you on your way to what you want.
