Having a browse button to refer to one folder only?

mikebyrne · March 24, 2008

I currently have one folder to store all my images in (../Admin_files/Pictures) but if the user wants to upload a file, the user can potentially save a picture anywhere.

Is it possible to force the browse button to point to one folder??

My button code is:


          <!-- picture1 start -->
          <div class="editLeftBox">PICTURE 1:</div>
          <div class="clr">
            <!-- -->
          </div>
          <div class="padTop5">
            <!-- -->

          </div>
          <div class="clr">
            <!-- -->
          </div>
          <div class="editLeftBox"><img src="Pictures/No_image.png" alt="pic1" width="150" height="200" /></div>
          <div class="clr">
            <!-- -->
          </div>
          <div class="padTop5">

            <!-- -->
          </div>
          <div class="clr">
            <!-- -->
          </div>
          <div class="editLeftBox">
            <input type="file" name="uploadfile" class="newsUpFile">

The user can only upload the file to where you want them to.

Want to explain the problem???

Sorry, the user can potentially save the picture files anywhere ie desktop Z: drive etc is it possible to code the browse button so it only point to specfic location. In my case ../admin_files/Picrtures

cooldude832 · March 24, 2008

no but u can make the user put it where u want.

mikebyrne · March 24, 2008

Sorry you've lost me. What do you mean make the user put it where u want??

cooldude832 · March 24, 2008

well considering we dont' see any code I can't help you that much, but the fact is you control uploads by your coding not the end user

mikebyrne · March 24, 2008

The problem is that im not sure where or how to code it so the user is restricted. Do I code around the browse button itself or is it a seperate php command?

My completed code is

<?PHP

require_once("adminconnect.php");

$ProductNo = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['ProductNo']));
$ProductName = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['ProductName']));
$Description = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['Description']));
$Price = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['Price']));
$Stockamount = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['Stockamount']));
$Type = $_POST['Type'];
$Display = strtoupper($_POST['display']); 

$tbl_name="product";

if($_POST["action"] == "Add"){

        $valid=1;
	if ($_POST['Type'] =="") {
                $valid=0;
                $style_name = "background-color:#FF5959";
                $error_type = "Please enter the product type<br>";
							 }	

	if ($_POST['ProductName']=="") {
                $valid=0;
                $style_name = "background-color:#FF5959";
                $error_name = "The Product Name seems to be mising?<br>";
                                		}

	if ($_POST['Description']=="") {
                $valid=0;
                $style_name = "background-color:#FF5959";
                $error_description = "Your description seems to be mising?<br>";
									}
	if ($_POST['Stockamount']=="") {
                $valid=0;
                $style_name = "background-color:#FF5959";
                $error_amount = "Please enter the ammount of stock recivied<br>";
									}
	if ($_POST['Price']=="") {
                $valid=0;
                $style_name = "background-color:#FF5959";
                $error_price = "Please enter the product price<br>";
									}	
	if(!is_numeric($_POST['Price'])) {
   				$valid=0;
                $style_name = "background-color:#FF5959";
                $error_price1 = "Please enter numeric values only";
                                        }

if ($valid==1) {       
                $sql="INSERT INTO $tbl_name (Producttype, ProductName, Description,Price, Stockamount, Display) VALUES ('$Type','$ProductName', '$Description', '$Price','$Stockamount''$Display')";

echo $_POST['ProductNo'];
echo $_POST['ProductName'];
echo $_POST['Description'];
echo $_POST['Price'];
echo $_POST['Stockamount'];
echo $_POST['Type'];
echo $_POST['Display'];
echo $sql;

$result=mysql_query($sql)or die(mysql_error()."<p>With Query<br>$sql");
}
}
?>

i don't see any file uploaded in there

mikebyrne · March 24, 2008

There isnt any yet. My problem is that I want the user to only upload to a certain folder as opposed to saving it anywhere

cooldude832 · March 24, 2008

maybe u should go to php.net and read how file uploads actually work cause you have no clue right now.
