Image Upload

[brown2005]

Hi I want to upload an image to

 

http://www.mywebsite.com/include/images/

 

but i want it to be renamed to

 

{$name1}_{$name2}

 

i think that is how you write it so if

 

$name1 = "cars"

$name2 = "person"

 

it would be cars_person

 

thanks richard

$new_name = $name1.'_'.$name2;

if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST")

{

 

$uploaddir = "http://www.links-bid.com/include/adverts/";

 

    $pext = getFileExtension($imgfile_name);

   

    $pext = strtolower($pext);

   

    if (($pext != "jpg") && ($pext != "jpeg") && ($pext != "gif"))

    {

       

print "<h1>ERROR</h1>Image Extension Unknown.<br>";

        print "<p>Please upload only a JPEG image with the extension .jpg or .jpeg ONLY<br><br>";

        print "The file you uploaded had the following extension: $pext</p>\n";

 

        unlink($imgfile);

       

        exit();

   

}

 

    $imgsize = GetImageSize($imgfile);

 

    if (($imgsize[0] > 250) || ($imgsize[1] > 200))

    {

 

        $tmpimg = tempnam("/tmp", "MKUP");

 

        system("djpeg $imgfile >$tmpimg");

 

        system("pnmscale -xy 250 200 $tmpimg | cjpeg -smoo 10 -qual 50 >$imgfile");

 

        unlink($tmpimg);

 

    }

 

    $final_filename = str_replace(" ", "_", $imgfile_name);

 

    $newfile = $uploaddir . "/$final_filename";

 

    if (is_uploaded_file($imgfile))

    {

     

      if (!copy($imgfile,"$newfile"))

      {

 

          print "Error Uploading File.";

         

          exit();

     

  }

   

}

 

    unlink($imgfile);

 

    print("<img src=\"$final_filename\">");

 

}

 

where would I put that in this script though? please

[brown2005]

$final_filename = str_replace(" ", "_", $imgfile_name);

 

i see that is the filename being uploaded so do i simply do:

 

$final_filename = $name1.'_'.$name2;

 

or do i need to include str_replace(" ", "_", $imgfile_name);

 

that?

 

 

[brown2005]

i tried

 

$final_filename = $name1.'_'.$name2;

 

but it doesnt work as it doesnt put the extension on the end of the file, so how would i add the extension please?

[monk.e.boy]

$new_name = $name1.'_'.$name2.'.'.$pext;

 

Note the .'.'. looks confusing. A dot appends text to a string. So we are appending the string '.' with the extension 'jpg' to get '.jpg' and this is appended to the file name:

 

'/usr/bin/kittens/hello_world.jpg'

    if(($pext != "jpg") && ($pext != "jpeg") && ($pext != "gif"))

    {

       

print "<h1>ERROR</h1>Image Extension Unknown.<br>";

        print "<p>Please upload only a JPEG image with the extension .jpg or .jpeg ONLY<br><br>";

        print "The file you uploaded had the following extension: $pext</p>\n";

 

        unlink($imgfile);

       

        exit();

   

}

 

    $final_filename = $amount.'_'.$place.'.'.$pext;

 

    $newfile = $uploaddir . "/$final_filename";

 

    if(is_uploaded_file($imgfile))

    {

     

      if (!copy($imgfile,"$newfile"))

      {

 

          print "Error Uploading File.";

         

          exit();

     

  }

   

}

 

    unlink($imgfile);

 

}

 

 

i have that but it is not putting the image in the folder, any ideas?

[monk.e.boy]

do you get error messages?

 

If not, it may be folder permissions. You need to allow apache read/write to the upload folder.
