I tried to change input type in a form from "text" to "file" (so I can find pics easier) in Dreamweaver.  It didn't work.  It lets me find the pic, but then no value is passed.

 

From

      <input type="text" name="image" value="image/" size="32" />

To

 

      <input type="file" name="image" value="image/" size="32" />

 

Thanks for your help!

If i am not wrong you are trying to upload files. If then google "PHP Uploage Files". The strategy is usually to save filename (with path, depends), and a separate code to deal with the upload of the file to a specific folder (note, create this folder yourself on the server, PHP will not create it for you).

 

add this after GetSQLValueString function

 

if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "form1")) {

$uploaddir = 'images/';

$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['image]['name']);

move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image]['tmp_name'], $uploadfile);

$_POST['image'] = basename($_FILES['image]['name']); //filename of the uploaded file

}

 

//the rest is okay

 

$editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {

  $editFormAction .= "?" . htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

}

 

if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "form1")) {

  $insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO products (prodItemNum, productName, price, `description`, inventory, vendorID, categoryID, image, onSale) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
