Php new page

[mindblown]

I'm looking to create a form that will upload a file either picture or video and embed it in another page from a template.

I'm not looking for someone to give me the code just sort of the way to go about it.

Would it be inside a <div> or an <iframe> and what would create the blank plage a target_blank action or something?

Any help would really be appreciate.

Thanks in advance!

I don't really understand what exactly you're asking. So you're wanting a new page for every single thing that is uploaded?

 

Would it not be easier to possibly store the filename/filetype in a database and then retrieve it when the time comes? That way you would only need a couple of pages max. 1 to upload and 1 to display.

 

Actually you might not even need a database. You could pass through the filename as a GET or POST variable and grab it that way.

 

Take for example: http://www.examplesi...?file=image.jpg

 

and then on the display page:

 

<?php
$filename = $_GET['file'];
?>

<img src="images/<?php echo $filename; ?>" />

well i want to create a feed where everything in the feed would be embedded in its own location.

Maybe I'm wrong in calling it its own page but i what a seperate url for everything uploaded. Any suggestions?

You need to read some basic PHP tutorials.
