Another form problem...

Anon

Well, I'm using enctype="multipart/form-data" but now I can't preview the image...

Here's the deal:
The user selects image in index.php, it's submitted to do_form.php3 and there I check pixel size, filesize and I want him to see what he's going to send to my database BEFORE he presses submit once again...

Ok this is the code:

if ($img != "none") {
echo "<img src=\"".stripslashes($img)."\">\n";
echo "<font face=\"verdana\">";
$size = GetImageSize("$img");
checksize($size[0], "450", "width");
checksize($size[1], "450", "height");
echo "$img_size bytes</font><br>\n";
} else {
echo "<img src=\"alert.red.gif\">\n";
}

When I try to echo img src stuff, all I get is <img src="\php2"> in the source code where the image is suppose to be rendered...

With thanks in advance, Arni Hermann

I also check for mime type and filename...

Can you show us the code from the calling page?

It looks like $img isn't being set properly.

Anon

No prob.,

Isn't this what you're talkin' about?

Sorry if I'm a bit confused, I'm just having trouble following what you're doing.

You have a form with a file input type.
When this field has been filled in, (the file has been selected), you want to display the image file, dynamically, before the form is submitted?

If that is what you're trying to achieve, then you're going to need some client-side scripting in there as well.

For instance, you could display a place-holder image, then use javascript to change the value of that image to that of your input field, whenever your input field changes.

Does that sound sorta like what you're trying to do?

Cheers,
