Refreshing Issue

[crawfd]

After uploading a picture, the picture displays on the same page, however you need to refresh the page in order to see the new image that's just been uploaded! How can I eliminate this?

I tried adding this javascript above the body:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function reloadpage() {
window.location.reload(true);
}
// -->
</script>

and then call it to the form post using a return. But it doesn't seem to work.........any ideas?

<?
<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="<? echo"$PHP_SELF?page=manage&action=profile" ?>" METHOD="POST">
The file: <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="userfile"  onsubmit="return reloadpage()">
<INPUT NAME="submit" TYPE="submit" VALUE="Upload"  onsubmit="return reloadpage()">

?>

you don't need javascript for this. you just need to conditionally display the picture if the form has been submitted:

if (isset ($_POST['submit']))
{
// code to upload picture
// code to display picture
}

Devinemke,

I believe I do have the form post above those areas already...

<?php

if(isset($_POST['submit'])){

$path = "c:\\apache\htdocs\\mysite\\images\\bios\\";
$max_size = 50000;

if ($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['size']>$max_size) {
	$b = FALSE;
	$message[] = "The file is too big. You must keep image size under 50kb. ";
	} else {
	$b = TRUE;
	}

if (($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type']=="image/pjpeg") || ($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['type']=="image/jpeg")) {
	$c = TRUE;
	} else {
	$c = FALSE;
	$message[] = "Sorry, only .jpg formats allowed. \n";
	}

if ($b==FALSE || $c==FALSE) 
{ 
    $message[] =  "Upload has failed."; 

} 
else 
{ 
$path_parts = pathinfo($_FILES['userfile']['name']);
$seperator = ".";
if (isset ($path_parts['extension'])) {$ext = $path_parts['extension'];} else {$ext = '';} 
copy($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $path . $_SESSION['username'] . $seperator . $ext);

$db = @mysql_connect('localhost','','');
mysql_select_db('journals');

$query = "UPDATE users SET photo='Y' WHERE username = '".$_SESSION['username']."'"; 
mysql_query($query);

$message[] = "Upload sucessful!\n";
$filesize = $HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['size'] * .001;
$message[] = "(File Size: $filesize KB)<br>\n";
}
}

?>

<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="<? echo"$PHP_SELF?page=manage&action=profile" ?>" METHOD="POST">
The file: <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="userfile"  onsubmit="return reloadpage()">
<INPUT NAME="submit" TYPE="submit" VALUE="Upload"  onsubmit="return reloadpage()">

[devinemke]

a few small changes:

<?
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
	$path = 'c:\apachehtdocs\mysite\images\bios\';
	$max_size = 50000;

$is_uploaded_file = true;
$size = true;
$type = true;

if (!is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'])) {$is_uploaded_file = FALSE;}
if ($_FILES['userfile']['size'] > $max_size)
{ 
    $size = FALSE; 
    $message[] = 'The file is too big. You must keep image size under 50kb.'; 
}

if (($_FILES['userfile']['type'] != 'image/pjpeg') &&	($_FILES['userfile']['type'] != 'image/jpeg'))
{ 
    $type = FALSE;
	  $message[] = 'Sorry, only .jpg formats allowed.';
} 

if (!$is_uploaded_file || !$size || !$type)
{  
    $message[] = 'Upload has failed.';			     
}

else  
{  
	$path_parts = pathinfo($_FILES['userfile']['name']); 
	if (isset ($path_parts['extension'])) {$ext = $path_parts['extension'];} else {$ext = '';}  
	move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $path . $_SESSION['username'] . '.' . $ext)

	$db = @mysql_connect('localhost','','');
	mysql_select_db('journals'); 

	$query = "UPDATE users SET photo='Y' WHERE username = '" . $_SESSION['username'] . "'";
	mysql_query($query); 

	$message[] = 'Upload sucessful!'; 
	$filesize = $_FILES['userfile']['size'] * .001; 
	$message[] = '(File Size: ' . $filesize . ' KB)<br>'; 
} 
}
?> 

<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="<? echo "$PHP_SELF?page=manage&action=profile" ?>" METHOD="POST">
The file: <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="userfile">
<INPUT NAME="submit" TYPE="submit" VALUE="Upload">

devinemmke, I used that code, but it doesn't seem to be uploading the photo now to the path. Let me note though that it's updating my query to the Y value below, but not executing the copy portion evidently.

I changed the portion of your script that was:

<?
        $path_parts = pathinfo($_FILES['userfile']['name']);   

        if (isset ($path_parts['extension'])) {$ext = $path_parts['extension'];} else {$ext = '';}    

        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $path . $_SESSION['username'] . '.' . $ext); 

and changed it back to

$path_parts = pathinfo($_FILES['userfile']['name']); 
$seperator = "."; 
if (isset ($path_parts['extension'])) {$ext = $path_parts['extension'];} else {$ext = '';}  

copy($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $path . $_SESSION['username'] . $seperator . $ext); 

?> 

Although either way I don't see an impact on the refreshing issue. I still need to refesh my browser to see the different image. Logically I understand why it's doing this, ..because every image that I upload overwrites one another because I'm using the same name. Is there any code that I can attach to a photo that would allow me to specifically target that image to refresh?

If I go to Internet Options/General/Settings I can select 'Check for newer versions of stored pages Every visit to the page' and this eliminates the problem however most people have it set to automatically. If a store header information at the top of this particular page with a no cache method, would the upload results refresh that way?

<? 
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) 
{ 
    $path = "c:apachehtdocsmysiteimagesbios";
    $max_size = 50000; 

$is_uploaded_file = true; 
$size = true; 
$type = true; 

if  (!is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']
)) {$is_uploaded_file = FALSE;} 
    if ($_FILES['userfile']['size'] > $max_size) 
    {  

        $size = FALSE;  

        $message[] = 'The file is too big. You must keep image size under 50kb.';  

    } 

if (($_FILES['userfile']['type'] != 'image/pjpeg') &&    ($_FILES['userfile']['type'] != 'image/jpeg')) 
{  
    $type = FALSE; 
      $message[] = 'Sorry, only .jpg formats allowed.'; 
}  

if (!$is_uploaded_file || !$size || !$type) 
{   
    $message[] = 'Upload has failed.';                  
} 

else   
{   
    $path_parts = pathinfo($_FILES['userfile']['name']);  
    if (isset ($path_parts['extension'])) {$ext = $path_parts['extension'];} else {$ext = '';}   
    move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $path . $_SESSION['username'] . '.' . $ext);

    $db = @mysql_connect('localhost','',''); 
    mysql_select_db('journals');  

    $query = "UPDATE users SET photo='Y' WHERE username = '" . $_SESSION['username'] . "'"; 
    mysql_query($query);  

    $message[] = 'Upload sucessful!';  
    $filesize = $_FILES['userfile']['size'] * .001;  
    $message[] = '(File Size: ' . $filesize . ' KB)<br>';  
}  
} 
?>  

<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="<? echo "$PHP_SELF?page=manage&action=profile" ?>" METHOD="POST"> 
The file: <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="userfile"> 
<INPUT NAME="submit" TYPE="submit" VALUE="Upload">

Anyone:-) Ellooohhhhh...it's so empty in here I can here my echo

echo "echooooooooooooo oh oh oh oh";

[jorge_ferreira]

I'm also interested in this matter.
Did you found a way to solve this? Is there any "header" command that we can use to do this?
This is really important to me. Is you find the answer please post it here, ok?

thankx

[Ceril]

So you upload an image, save it somewhere and it does show the old image still? Try this *snipped from php.net/header/

<?php
// Date in the past
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");

// always modified
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");

// HTTP/1.1
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);

// HTTP/1.0
header("Pragma: no-cache");
?>

The above should force most browsers to reload a certain page from scratch ?
