Uploading images to a PHP script

hello. I just started learning Java... so... sorry for elementary questions.
I would appreciate it if someone could give me a clue as to what to read in the Java documentation regarding to uploading images to a PHP script on the server.
I dont mind researching by myself but it would be great if someone could give me class names and method names that accomplish uploading image files.
Links to articles or forum threads would be great too!
I really appreciate it.
Thank you
Ivan

just a guess... its URLConnection a good way to go to implement image uploading functionality?
thank you

Problem uploading images with php script.

As a webdebdesigner i developped a cms system to upload images with php to a mysql database. Firefox version 5.0.1 for MAC and earlier have no problems with uploading through the script. But after that version it is impossible to upload images bigger then 250kb. The page where the customer chooses his image for upload stalls and the form is not sent to the actual upload script, which should validate and process the image.
This problem only occurs in Firefox, all other browsers work just fine!
On top of that: Giving feedback to firefox not possible for MAC.

Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web site development issues with Firefox. <br />

PHP script for form to upload 2 files to FTP

Hi,
I have scoured the internet for quite a while now looking for
a free php script that will enable me to:
1. Put a form on a page that has two uplaod boxes for a
client to upload two file svia theeir browser
2.The files will be one image (jpg) and one pdf
3. The files will always (each day) be called headshot.jpg
and resume.pdf
4. The script must allow the files on the server to be
overwritten by the new files of the same name each day
I have found MANY scripts, som eof which i can get to work,
but they were too sofisticated (checked for many things taht i was
not concerned for, didnt allow files to be overwritten, changed
directories of where the files were uplaoded to, changed the file
names automatically) and many that i wasnt able to get to work.
I just need something simple like the above. Unfortunately I
am no scripter, so when i tried to decifer the ready made scripts
and rearrange them to suit my needs, i messed things up.
Thanks immensely in advance of anyone who canb offer m eany
help or point me in a better direction. I wasnt sure where to post
this query/help plea.

Go to
http://www.php.net and read about
file uploads there. You will find
several scripts that will work just fine for you.
Or try this -
<?php
//places files into same dir as form resides
if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) {
$target=$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/uploads";
foreach ($_FILES["files"]["error"] as $key => $error) {
if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK) {
$tmp_name = $_FILES["files"]["tmp_name"][$key];
$name = $_FILES["files"]["name"][$key];
if(move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, "$target/$name")}
print "Upload completed";
else
print "Upload failed";
?>
<body>
<form action="" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<p>Pictures:
<input type="file" name="files[]" />
<input type="file" name="files[]" />
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Send" />
</p>
</form>
This assumes that the incoming files will be properly named,
and that the
upload destination is a folder called "/uploads".

Uploading a file using a php script while running application with LCDS

Hi! I developping an application under Flex 2 / Java -
running on LCDS / JRun server.
I'm trying to add uploading capabilities. I'm using a php
script for the upload part.
First, I just try to put script on the app directory. Doesn't
work.
After that I set up an apache server from where I put a small
web site with my script. It's telling me that my file is
succesfully uploaded, but I can't find the file. The apache log
give me no error.
Someone can help me?

Originally, I had problems w/ the file being placed in
C:/whatever.ext b/c I wasn't using relative paths.
This is the code I use:
$MAXIMUM_FILESIZE = 1024 * 1024 * 2; // 2MB
$newFileLoc = "./wherever/file.jpg"
if ($_FILES['Filedata']['size'] <= $MAXIMUM_FILESIZE) {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'],
"./temporary/".$_FILES['Filedata']['name']);
rename( "./temporary/".$_FILES['Filedata']['name'],
$newFileLoc );
chmod( $newFileLoc, 0777 );

Upload images to a MySQL database (PHP)?

Ok so i don't get any error but is not doing anything to my database, any suggestions?
<body>
<form action="image.php" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
File:
    <input type="file" name="image" />
    <input type="submit" value="Upload"/>
</form>
<?php
//Conect to database
$mydatabase = mysql_pconnect($hostname_mydatabase, $username_mydatabase, $password_mydatabase) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR);
mysql_select_db("database")or die (mysql_error());
//file properties
$file = $_FILES['image']['tmp_name'];
if (!isset($file))
          echo"PLease select a file";
else
$image=addslashes(file_get_contents($_FILES['image']['tmp_name']));
$image_name=addslashes($_FILES['image']['name']);
$image_size=getimagesize($_FILES['image']['tmp_name']);
if($image_size==FALSE)
          echo "That's not an image.";
else
          if ($insert = mysql_query("INSERT INTO table VALUES ('$image_name', '$image')"))
          echo "Problem uploading image.";
          else
?>
</body>

Why do you want the binary value of the image?
Just save the image name as you are and then move the uploaded file to the proper folder on your server.

Help with file uploader, php script, Windows Authentication

I am trying to setup a really basic web-based file uploader that I will expand upon later. I have the flex application working well enough (very basic). However, I have a php script in a secure folder using windows authentication. When I try to send the file to the script, it doesn't seem to like my credentials, and refuses to do anything. I do not get an error message; just nothing happens.
My questions are:
Does anybody know where I should've looked before posting this thread?
Do I even have PHP set up correctly? (At first I just made a txt file and put a .php extension on it, then I tried to setup PHP on the server, but it was a little confusing for me)
Is Windows Authentication the problem?
I do plan on implementing SQL Server in the future (to keep track of Files and user-defined attributes for files), but I do not want to store the files in SQLserver, just their pathnames.
Is there a simple way to use ColdFusion (for free) to acheive this end?
I am somewhat experienced at coding applications, but am totally new to server-side scripts.
This is my php script:
<?php
$tempFile = $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'];
$fileName = $_FILES['Filedata']['name'];
$fileSize = $_FILES['Filedata']['size'];
move_uploaded_file($tempFile, "./" . $fileName);
?>
This is my flex application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                  xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                  xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="955" minHeight="600">
<fx:Script>
     <![CDATA[
     private var fileRef:FileReference
     private var uploadFilePath:String
     private function selectFile():void
          fileRef = new FileReference();
          fileRef.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, fileRef_select);
          fileRef.browse();
     private function fileRef_select(evt:Event):void
          fileRef.upload(new URLRequest("http://SERVERLOCATION/PDFUploader.php"));
     ]]>
</fx:Script>
     <s:Button top="30" left="5" label="Browse" click="selectFile()"/>
</s:Application>
Thanks to any who take the time to respond.

Hey, so far all I have found is this tutorial.. I'm about to try it out
http://www.smartwebby.com/Flash/external_data.asp

Using the fileReference class to upload image

I've been using the loadVars to upload text and pass
variables to php and onto the server. I've begun using the Flash
Filereference class so an image can be uploaded directly from a
Flash movie, not involving an html form. But within the
Filereference script I can't figure out how to pass a variable to
php as I did using loadVars method. I've tried a number of hit-miss
ways but they've all been misses.
Right now the path to save an image file is "hard-wired" into
the php script. This is the var that I want to pass.
thanks
The script is here if you need to take a peek:

Someone else asked about this recently. I think the answer
you're after is here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=15&catid=288&threadid =1317799
That's for POST data.
If you want to send additional GET data you could just append
it to the url.

How do i create a website that allows customer to upload images and text?

I need some help i have a friend who has asked me if i can create a website that allows them to upload their own images and text at their leisure.
His company is in the car sales trade so they need to regularly be updating their stock, and this needs to be done by somebody with limited computer knowledge so ease of use is fairly important.
I am using dreamweaver cs4 on a G5 Imac running Snow leopard 10.6.8, my skills are limited to creating uncomplicated websites but i am very keen to learn, i am aware of content management systems such as Druplal but have zero knowledge on how to use these.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Although putting together a form that would upload images and all the descriptions required seems like a fairly straghtforward project, depending on your current skill set.

User Uploaded Image won't display on Mac OSX

I am experiencing something very strange with user uploaded
images on Mac OSX, latest Debug Flash Player 9, Safari and Firefox
2. Everything works fine on Windows (XP and Vista) on all major
browsers.
A user selects a local image to upload. The file gets
uploaded to server, resampled, saved to a public location, and a
response is sent back to the Flash Player in the form of a JSON
object. The response contains the URL to the uploaded image on the
server. The Flash Player downloads the image and adds the Loader to
a sprite that is already on the stage. All appropriate events are
fired. The progress events show that the image is downloading, and
the complete and init events are both fired. Using the Charles Web
debugging Proxy I can verify that everything is working correctly
(upload and download), and no security violations are occuring.
Charles even shows the actual image that gets downloaded. However,
on Mac, the image doesn't display (stays blank, as if it's an empty
sprite), whereas on PC/Windows the image displays fine.
I have placed a crossdomain file in the appropriate location
- even though it is never requested as I don't try to do anything
with the image's bitmap data.
Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to create a new project
to test this out in, but will do as soon as I can, and post a link.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Shaun.

We had a similar problem, maybe it is related to this (it was
done in as2, but the real problem was outside flash)
flash took an enormous time to display thumbs for a gallery
of images.. and directly in ff on osx, the thumb (about 100x100 px)
would load only half way.. and again wait for about half a minute
or more.. and then display. In flash the thumb would remain blank
until the loading was over.. that is for about half a minute or
more.
What this turned out to be, was that the php script on the
server somehow returned header information that the image had the
dimensions of the full-sized image. So after all the data for the
thumb downloaded, the client (browser or flash) would just wait
until a predefined timeout..
Since you are resizing uploaded images I thought this could
be one of the possible reasons, maybe the flash player for osx and
for windows handle such "missing data" cases differently.

Passing variable to PHP script

Hi,
I'm new to Oracle&APEX...
I would like to upload a file to server filesystem, but I could not fid a way this to be done via APEX?
(I somebody can give me a solution You are welcome)
I know how this could be done in PHP so I created a script, but I need then to confirm to the database that the file is uploaded. To do this I need to have variable transferred to my PHP script.
I've tried to build a button to pass the value with ?var=:P5_value, but only "P%_value" is passed as text not the value of this variable.
How this can be done?
Any suggestions?

Hello,
You should use the webdav functionality in XE.
http://daust.blogspot.com/2006/03/where-are-images-of-application.html
then you get the best of both worlds you get files in the database but they can be accessed as if they are in the filesystem.
Note: APEX need to be replaced with HTMLDB for Oracle XEI have no idea what you are saying here, HTMLDB and APEX are the same thing.

Multiple Upload Image Problem - Resize GIF files

The Multiple Image Upload script seems to handle .jpg images without problems.
However, .gif files return the error:
"Error converting image (image resize). Image processing library not available or does not support operation. (imagemagick library is not working or not found)."
The problem is caused by the fact that script that I'm using tries to pass a parameter that is not valid for gif processing:
myimage.gif' '-quality' '80'
The "quality" parameter works only for jpeg and .png files as described here:
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php#quality
Please ensure that the script makes difference between .gif and .jpeg files and use the correct parameters so we can resize the images properly.
Thanks in advance,
Márcio

Hi Marcio,
>>
Can you tell me the inconveniance of using GD instead of Imagemagick, or its, shortly similar?
>>
sorry, but never worked with ImageMagick so far, so I can´t compare
>>
The "quality" parameter works only for jpeg and .png files as described here
>>
yeah, it seems that this is a small bug in ADDT´s "includes/common/lib/image/KT_Image.class.php" file. Was just checking the code in there, and indeed it adds this extra parameter regardless the image type -- but I do have an idea how this file can be modified to not use this parameter if the file in question has the suffix ".gif".
If you feel a little adventurous, I´ll happily invite you to modify some code in this file -- please let me know if you´re ready for some instructions. However, if so, please make a backup of this file first...

OK, that tutorial is different than what I assume you want. I suspect you want the ability to have users upload images and store the metadata of those images in a database, correct? That tutorial only shows how to upload to a specific location so the image can
be displayed in an iframe.
Search for "php file upload scripts" to see how to upload to a file system and store the metadata in the database.
>and no, mostly i have used the dreamweaver features to avoid it as much as possible
As you are seeing, DW code is very limited in what it can do. It also generates code that is not up to current standards,and is very difficult to work with if you need to modify it. Basically, it's junk. Forget it and learn how to read and write code. There are tons on tutorials on how to get started with PHP. DW Server behaviors only seem like a time saver in the beginning. In the end, you'll end up wasting more time using them than learning how to code yourself.

Allowing visitors to upload images

I would like to allow visitors to upload images to my site
(.jpg and .gif ONLY). I have searched online and found a few
different codes, but I would like to make it so that I would have
to appove the images first (they would either be emailed to me or
saved in the file manager). I also want it so people don't have to
register before uploading an image. My site is not that popular.
Does ANYONE know how to do this.. The closest thing I found
was this page:
http://www.abynex.com/imageupload.html
I paid for the code, but don't completely understand it. Is
there another way to get this action on my site.
I don't know what PHP and MySQL are or how to use them. I do
have a paid site and domain. Does this have anything to do with the
website settings. Under that section, I see the Absolute Root Path
& FTP Host/User .
I am lost
Thanks

Don't you get any help files with the purchase?
The first place to ask the question would be to the author of
the script no?

Problem when trying to rename uploaded images using session value

Hi,
I have a form where 9 images are uploaded made into thumb nail size and then stored in a file. What I´m trying to do is rename those thumbnails from their original name to username_0, username_1, username_2 etc for each of the 9 thumbs. The username comes from the registration form on the same page. I have created a session variable for the username and am trying to use that to change to name of the image name, whilst my images are uploading and resizing the name stays as the original and not as the new username_$number. I have pasted relevant code below and would very much appreciate any help with this:
<?php session_start();

I hope i´ve supplied enough information and look forward to receiving any help or advise in this matter.

Use double quotes here:
$newname = str_replace ('name', '$username_$number', $name);
Change it to this:
$newname = str_replace ('name', "$username_$number", $name);
