<img src> small question

[robert_gsfame]

let say i have this <a href="myuploadfolder/picture1.jpg">Picture</a>

 

and when user click on the link, they can see in which folder their picture were kept...is this dangerous?? if yes then how to hide it??

 

thx in advance

I wouldnt consider it dangerous unless you dont want people to hotlink your images.

 

but you can stop hotlinking with:

 

<img src="image.php?myfile=image1.jpg">

 

 

<?php
session_start();
$ticket = "accepted";
session_register($_SESSION["ticket"]);

$path="./myuploadfolder/"; // Path to protected directory
$mimetype ="image/jpeg"; // Mime type of the file

// Check to see if the visitor has the right ticket
if ( $_SESSION["ticket"] == "accepted" ) {
Header("Content-type: ");
readfile ( $path . $myfile );
}

?>
