Image file is not uploading

[Chrisj]

I don't know why this image upload code isn't uploading the image file to the uploads/ folder.

Any help will be appreciated.

	$allowedExts = array("gif", "jpeg", "jpg", "png");
	$temp = explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
	$extension = strtolower( end($temp) );
	if (  $_FILES["file"]["size"] < 2000000
	&& in_array($extension, $allowedExts) )
	{
	if ($_FILES["file"]["error"]!= 0)
	{
	echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br>";
	} else {
	$length = 20;
	$randomString = substr(str_shuffle(md5(time())),0,$length);
	$newfilename = $randomString . "." . $extension;
	move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "upload/" . $newfilename );
	$file_location = '<a href="http://www.--.com/upload/' . $newfilename . '">http://www.--.com/upload/' . $newfilename . '</a>';
	}
	} else {
	echo "Invalid upload file";
	}

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php">
<input type="file" name="file" id="file">
<input type="submit" name="submitted" value="Submit">
</form>

This change now gets the image uploaded, however this code takes me to the next page.

I'd like to figure out how to stay on the same page after upload. Any help will be appreciated.

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="" method="POST">
<input type="file" name="file" id="file">
<input class="upload-input" type="hidden" name="form_submitted" value="yes" />
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>

Without reloading the page, you mean? That's AJAX, which is simple to implement... except for doing file uploads. Which isn't actually AJAX but whatever.

 

Find yourself a Javascript library that can do file uploads and implement that in your site. Your PHP doesn't have to change much except it shouldn't output HTML (not when it's handling the file upload).
