Image database

[Anon]

Hi,
I am new to php so I need a little help to point me in the right direction.
I would like to crate a image database except I dont want the image to be stored in the mysql database but in a directory.

I have created a form for the person uploading the file to enter comments and select a file...... now the hard part!

The file is uploaded to the directory and the comments entered in the database, I have not worked out how to creat a link in the database to point to the uploaded file.
I can do it if I add the link later...... is there a way to carry the file name and make it part of a link?

Thanks
Neil

Once you've placed the uploaded image in the directory it's going to reside, you store its filename (and path, if that can vary) in a text field in the database.
