dwex Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 <td><label for='images'> <b>File to upload:</b> </label></td> <td><input type='file' name = 'drama_image' '<?php echo $row['drama_image']; ?>'/></ </tr> <?php $target_path = "images/"; $target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['images']['name']); if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['images']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) { echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['images']['name']). " has been uploaded"; } else{ echo $row['drama_image']; } ?> ['drama_image'] is the name of the file I wanna echo it out in the box of file upload so when I save , the default picture will still be there instead of being overwritten as the box does not have any value in it.

PFMaBiSmAd Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 You already have a thread for this problem. Don't start another one. I would probably help if you actually provided an actual example showing what you are talking about (in your original thread.)

maxudaskin Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 You cannot put a specific value in. It is very difficult, if not impossible to know the information of where the file would be (username, location, security, ect.)

dezkit Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I told you the solution in the last thread... here is some code: <td><label for='images'> <b>File to upload:</b> </label></td> <td><input type='file' name = 'drama_image' /> Ignore: <input type='checkbox' name='ignore' value='1' selected='selected'></td> </tr> <?php if(!$_POST['ignore'] == "1"){ //not ignore $target_path = "images/"; $target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['images']['name']); if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['images']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) { echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['images']['name']). " has been uploaded"; } else{ echo $row['drama_image']; } } else { //ignore } ?> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/209740-how-to-echo-target-path-or-file-name-inside-upload-file-box/#findComment-1094928 Share on other sites More sharing options...
