[SOLVED] Can you please help me in uploading files from client browse

[oceans]

Dear People,

 

Can you please help me in uploading files from client browse and storing in a specific folder?

 

I got this code, but it is not working. I believe it could be the placement.

 

“

 

<form action="examplefileupload.php" method="post"

enctype="multipart/form-data">

<label for="file">Filename:</label>

<input type="file" name="file" id="file" />

<br />

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />

<?php

if (($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif")

|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")

&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 20000))

  {

  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)

    {

    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";

    }

  else

    {

    echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";

    echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";

    echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";

    echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";    if (file_exists("upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))

      {

      echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";

      }

    else

      {

      move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],

      "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);

      echo "Stored in: " . "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];

      }

    }

  }

else

  {

  echo "Invalid file";

  }

?>

 

</form>

Can any one pleae help me, I am getting no where. :'(

What exactly is "missing"? And for everyone's sake, put [ code ][ /code ] tags around your code (without the spaces).

[oceans]

Dear John,

 

Thanks for reply, the whole thing will go into body.

 

I do not know what is missing, I can't upoad *.jpg file, but my code seems OK, it is not working since the first time.

Any Kind hearts!

Please help me,

Dear Frineds,

I am not moving ahead, please help me.

Let's look at an obvious setting situation. Have you checked your php settings to allow an upload to the directory you are trying to upload to? I had my code right and it took me a day and a half to figure out the directory was not set up to allow uploads.

Dear SnowDog,

Thanks I never know I have to enable it, but I found out that it has been enabled by default, got I got to do anymore settings.

[john010117]

1) Set the directory (to which the files will upload to) permissions to 777.

2) Replace your form to this:

<form action="examplefileupload.php" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="file">Filename:</label>
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

(you didn't put the end tag for the form).

 

See if that helps.

Here is my upload code. This is the html form to choose your upload. In the first part I am passing variable some variables through so it knows what table and file I am uploading it and it changes the name of the file. Maybe this can help you. I pieced code together to come up with what worked for me. Hope this helps.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">

<html>
 <head> 
   <title>Untitled</title>
 </head>
 <body>
 <?
 
   $id = $_REQUEST['id'];
   $filename = $_REQUEST['filename'].".mp3"; 
   echo "  <form enctype='multipart/form-data' method=\"post\" action=\"edit_reminder_upload_file.php\">\n";
   echo "  Upload file and rename it to $filename\n";
   echo "  <table width=\"90%\" align=\"center\">\n";
   echo "    <tr>\n";
   echo "      <td width=\"150\" style=\"font-family: verdana; font-size: 12;\">New File:</td>\n";
   echo "      <td style=\"font-family: verdana; font-size: 12;\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"MAX_FILE_SIZE\" value=\"500000000\" /><input type=\"file\" name=\"thumb\" value=\"\"></td>\n";

   echo "        <input type=\"submit\" name=\"submit\" value=\"submit changes\">\n";
   echo "  </form>";
 ?>
 </body>

and here is the 2nd part of upload where it does the work.

 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">

<html>

 <head> 
   <title>Untitled</title>
 </head>

 <body>

<?
$filename = $_REQUEST['filename']; 
$id = $_REQUEST['id']; 

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['thumb']['tmp_name'], "mp3/coaching_call/".$filename))
{
 echo "Upload Success"; 
 include("include/config.php");
 $query = "UPDATE call_reminder SET completed='1' WHERE id='$id'"; 
 mysql_query($query) or die('Query failed: ' . mysql_error());
}
else
{
 echo "Upload Failed";  
}
?>

 </body>
</html>
