[SOLVED] Problem with mysql data insertion

Recommended Posts

I am using this script to load a file into the webserver, and store the path in the database.  That is working fine.  However, when I try to upload other information from the same field I keep getting the field name in the data. 

<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="2000000">
Title: <input type="text" name="title" id="title">
Description: <textarea name="description" id="description"></textarea><br /><br />
<input name="userfile" type="file" id="userfile">
<td width="80"><input name="upload" type="submit" class="box" id="upload" value=" Upload ">
</form>

 

Instead of posting the actual input field into the database, it is taking the name:

Title: <input type="text" name="title" id="title">

This results in name.

 

PHP:

$uploadDir = 'upload/';

if(isset($_POST['upload']))
{

$fileName = $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
$tmpName = $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];
$fileSize = $_FILES['userfile']['size'];
$fileType = $_FILES['userfile']['type'];

$filePath = $uploadDir . $fileName;

$result = move_uploaded_file($tmpName, $filePath);
chmod($filePath, 0755);
if (!$result) {
echo "Error uploading file";
exit;
}


if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc())
{
$fileName = addslashes($fileName);
$filePath = addslashes($filePath);
} 
mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pwd);
mysql_select_db($db_name);

$query = "INSERT INTO upload2 (name, size, type, path, title, description) ".
"VALUES ('$fileName', '$fileSize', '$fileType', '$filePath', 'title', 'description')";

mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed : ' . mysql_error());

Shouldn't this:

$query = "INSERT INTO upload2 (name, size, type, path, title, description) ".
"VALUES ('$fileName', '$fileSize', '$fileType', '$filePath', 'title', 'description')";

Be this:

$query = "INSERT INTO upload2 (name, size, type, path, title, description) ".
"VALUES ('$fileName', '$fileSize', '$fileType', '$filePath', '$_POST[title]', '$_POST[description]')";

 

Just pointing out the issue, you should sanitize the input too...
