uploading mp3 files to folder on server via php form..

[pjc2003]

hi,

 

Im trying to design a webpage form in php that allows uploading of three mp3 files to a folder on my server. The webpage should convert the name of each mp3 file uploaded to 1.mp3 , 2.mp3 and 3.mp3 and whenever a new song is uploaded it should replace whatevers in the folder on the server, im totally stuck as where to begin..

 

Any help would be great,

 

Many thanks,

 

Pete.

try this, youl have to make a folder called uploads, in the folder where this page is saved

 

<?php
$path = "uploads/";
if (!isset($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile'])){
echo "
<FORM ENCTYPE=multipart/form-data ACTION='' METHOD=POST>

  <p>The file:<br>
    <INPUT TYPE=file NAME=userfile>
  </p>
  <p>
    <INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE=Upload>
  </p>
</FORM>
"; }else{
if (is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {
if (($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type']=="audio/mp3")")) {
if (file_exists($path . $HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name'])) { echo "<font color=red>Error</font>! The file already exists, try calling your file a different name.<br><FORM ENCTYPE=multipart/form-data ACTION='' METHOD=POST>

  <p>The file:<br>
    <INPUT TYPE=file NAME=userfile style='border: 1px solid #222222; background-color: #111111; color: #888888'>
  </p>
  <p>
    <INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE=Upload style='border: 1px solid #222222; background-color: #111111; color: #888888'>
  </p>
</FORM>"; }else{
$res = copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $path .
$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name']);
if (!$res) { echo "upload failed!<br>"; exit; } else { echo "upload sucessful<br><br>"; }
echo "File Name: ".$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name']."<br>";
echo "File Path: <a href=uploads/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name']." TARGET=_BLANK>uploads/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name']."</a><br>";
echo "File Size: ".$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['size']." bytes<br>";
echo "File Type: ".$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type']."<br>";
echo "<img src=uploads/".$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name']."><br>";
}}}}
?>

I have an idea, look at line 20 and find the error, we are here to help, not coddle, you need to do some stuff yourself.  I know where the error is, but I need you to find it yourself.

[pjc2003]

on line 20 i thought it was missing a "

 

 

if (($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type']=="audio/mp3")")) {

 

so ive changed it to :

 

 

if ("($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type']=="audio/mp3")")) {

 

but it now comes up with:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /usr/home/longnines/public_html/fyp/upload.php on line 20

 

Im quite new to PHP so just after some guidance not people to do work for me.

 

Thanks.

When you get an error saying unexpected something, it usually means that something is there that isn't supposed to be, in this case, the " in the line that you found was not supposed to be there.
