uploading a file, adding it to the database.

Alright, I have another question.

 

I have been working on this for a couple of weeks now, nothing is turning out good at all. After deleting my last script, I decided to ask here.

 

How do I take the information that the user just uploaded to a directory and add it to the database under their name?

 

I want my users to be able to upload a image, and set it as their avatar. Any Help? Thanks guys!

well... first things first you would need a field in your user table to identify what avatar they are using...

 

I would recommend using a random number to generate a new file name for the files you are allowing the user to upload... have your script upload the file to a folder, then store the location in that field in your database.
