Uploading pictures with php to database

[Anon]

Hello.

I want to be able to have a user upload their picture from a website, and store it somehow in a mysql database.

Do you have any suggestions on how I could achieve this?

the user will suplly the local path of the file (eg "C:\pictures\1.jpb") and this must then be stored in a mysql database.

I must then be able to retrieve the picture and present it back onto a webpage at any time.

Thanks,
James.

Store the filename in the database, and the actual file in the filesystem.

Htmltag for uploading a file: <input type=file name=picture>
