Image Upload script problem...help

[Immortal55]

Alright, something is wrong with this script and I cannot figure it out, I just get the 'Could no move File' Error that I wrote myself....

[code]
<?php


// code that will be executed if the form has been submitted:

if ($submit) {

    // connect to the database

    require_once('dbconnect.php');
    $conn = db_connect();
    mysql_select_db("user_art");
    
    move_uploaded_file("'" . $_FILES['form_data'] . "'", "art/" . $_FILES['name'] . " ")
      or die('Could not move the file'); // Good to have error checking.
    
    $path = "art/" . $_FILES['name'] . " ";
    
    mysql_query("INSERT INTO user_art (description, path, filename, filesize, filetype)
        VALUES ('" . $_POST['form_description'] . "', '$path', '" . $_FILES['name'] . "','" . $_FILES['size'] . "','" . $_FILES['type'] . "')");

    $id= mysql_insert_id();
    print "<p>This file has the following Database ID: <b>$id</b>";

    mysql_close();

} else {

    // else show the form to submit new data:
?>

    <form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    File Description:<br>
    <input type="text" name="form_description"  size="40">
    <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000">
    <br>File to upload/store in database:<br>
    <input type="file" name="form_data"  size="40">
    <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
    </form>

<?php

}

?>
[/code]

OK.

The $_FILES superdooperglobal is an aary of attributes for the uploaded file.

you MUST reference this array by the inputname of the form....

$_FILES['form_data']['name']
$_FILES['form_data']['type']

etc etc (often good to use the $_FILES['form_data']['error'] to check things!!)

Try that and it should improve things.

alright, well i changed everything so the $_FILES has ['form_data'] before the attribute.....but all that the $_FILES['form_data']['error'] gave me was '0' thats it....does that mean anything?

[Immortal55]

alright, i messed with the script, and its still not working it dosent show the id, hence its not doing the query..... this is the new updated one:

[code]
<?php


// code that will be executed if the form has been submitted:

if ($submit) {

    // connect to the database


    require_once('dbconnect.php');
    $conn = db_connect();
    mysql_select_db("user_art");
    
    $updir = "art/";
    $finame = $_FILES['form_data']['name'];
    $path = $updir.$finame;
    
    move_uploaded_file($_FILES['form_data']['tmp_name'], $path)
      or die('Could not move the file <br> ' . $_FILES['form_data']['error']  .' '); // Good to have error checking.
    
    $descript = $_POST['form_description'];
    $fisize = $_FILES['form_data']['size'];
    $fitype = $_FILES['form_data']['type'];
    
    $result = mysql_query("INSERT INTO user_art (description, path, filename, filesize, filetype)
                    VALUES ('" . $descript . "', '" . $path . "', '" . $finame . "', '" . $fisize . "', '" . $fitype . "')");
                    
if($result) {
    $id= mysql_insert_id();
    print "<p>This file has the following Database ID: <b>$id</b>";
    }

    mysql_close();

} else {

    // else show the form to submit new data:
?>

    <form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    File Description:<br>
    <input type="text" name="form_description"  size="40">
    <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000">
    <br>File to upload/store in database:<br>
    <input type="file" name="form_data"  size="40">
    <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
    </form>

<?php

}

?>
[/code]

what is wrong now?

[Immortal55]

I'm sorry, but I really need help with this.

[ToonMariner]

does the file actually upload?

are you given any errors?

have you echoed out the query that is generatd so you can try to run directly in phpmyadmin?
