spikypunker Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Right Feel a bit stupid about my last post cause i was being dumb and then the thread got too big, so i'm reposting it much simpler. ok I'm trying to allow a user to select a news item then a file and then get php to upload the file (will be a GIF) and name the file on the server in the uploads folder as the ID of the news item they chose. addimage.php <body> <form method="post" action="selectimage.php"> <? mysql_connect("db1", "stanga_1", "***"); @mysql_select_db("stanga_1") or die ("unable to connect"); $query = "SELECT * FROM news"; $result = mysql_query($query); $num = mysql_num_rows($result); mysql_close(); $i = 0; while ($i < $num) { $newsno = mysql_result($result,$i,"newsno"); $date = mysql_result($result,$i,"date"); $head = mysql_result($result,$i,"head"); $body = mysql_result($result,$i,"body"); ?> <input name="item" type="radio" id="item" value="<? echo $newsno; ?>"> <? echo " <span class='style2'>$head</span><br>"; $i++; } ?> <br /><Br /><br /> <span class="style1">Now Select the Image you wish to upload</span>...<br /><br /> <input name="uploadFile" type="file" /><br /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Add Image"/> </form> </body> selectimage.php <body> <span class="style1"> <? $id = $_POST['item']; $id = $id . ".gif"; $target_path = "uploads/"; $target_path = $target_path . basename( $id); echo $target_path; if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedFile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) { echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded"; } else{ echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!"; } ?> </body> So bascially this is passing the variable and creating the right file string but it's not uploading anything!!! It comes up with the message i've written in the script: "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!" This is driving me crazy! peace Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/85548-php-file-uploader-help-updated-ignore-previous-thread/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
