a download page?

eskick

Hi users,
i created a php upload site, i just need to know how to give users a download link to a page, eg:

You upload has completed, to share your file give this link: http://blabla.com/download.php?download=88263 sumthin like that, now how can i do that? i know i need mysql and my site is: http://www.gimehost.com, i could provide the source code i made too. thanks

Basically create a MySQL table that contains all the information about a file, and assign it an integer autoincrementing key. Then, create download.php, use a SELECT query to grab the information about download 88263 (In your example), and present them a page.

My uploads are renamed in random numbers, also heres the source code:

<?php
ob_start();
$site = "http://www.gimehost.com/";   //site name with the directory that the uploading file is on ex. http://your_site/phpimages/
$directory = "s1/";         //directory name, where all the images upload
$size = "100000000";   //maximum size of image in bytes
//show the upload file form
echo "<br>";
echo "<br><center>";

echo "<br>";
echo "<form enctype=multipart/form-data method=post action=?action=upload><input name=userfile type=file>&nbsp;<input type=submit value=Upload></form>";
echo "<br>";
if($_GET['action'] == 'upload')
{
$uploaddir = $directory;
$trim = str_replace(" ", "",basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']));
$name = strtolower($trim);
srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
if(substr($name, -5, 5) == '.jpeg' || substr($name, -5, 5) == '.JPEG' || substr($name, -5, 5) == '.tiff' || substr($name, -5, 5) == '.TIFF')
{
$number2 = rand(0,100000000) . substr($name, -5, 5);
}
else
{
$number2 = rand(0,100000000) . substr($name, -4, 4);
}
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . $number2;
//check the image size
if($_FILES['userfile']['size'] == $size || $_FILES['userfile']['size'] > $size)
{
$size2 = $size/1000;
echo "File size should be less than " . $size2 . "kb";
exit;
}
else
{
if(substr($name, -5, 5) == '.jpeg' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.gif' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.jpg' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.png' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.bmp' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.zip' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.rar' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.swf' || substr($name, -3, 3) == '.gz' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.mp3' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.wmv' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.mp4' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.avi' || substr($name, -4, 4) == '.mpg' || substr($name, -5, 5) == '.mpeg')

{
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) 
{
   echo "Your Uploaded File is now online!.<br><br>";
   echo "<br>Your download link: <br>" . $site . $directory . $number2 . "<br>";

   echo "</center>";
}
else 
{
   echo "Could not upload file";
}
}
else
{
echo "Not a valid file";
}
}
}
?>

Could anyone make the download page please? i aint that good in mysql?

SargeZT

I'd sincerely reccomend learning MySQL, as I doubt anyone here would be willing to make a download page for you. A good starting point is theMySQL Manual. I'd read that, and it will elucidate the path to the download script.

My advice is, never use anything you don't understand.

eskick

i know mysql but i need a tutorial or sumthing to make that download page

SargeZT

In that case, Google would be your best friend. However, I'd reccomend these two.

eskick

is there any script on hotscripts where i could get ideas off it, and it is like the one i want?

johany

This is one way to do it.
Haven't considred any security issues or such so..


//Check 
if($file){
//Give the path to the file
// $file is the name of the file you want to download. 
// $path is the location on the server

  $path = "full/path/to/your/file/".$file;
   header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
   header("Content-Type: application/force-download");
   header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".basename($file));
   @readfile($path);
}
//send the user somewhere
header("location:index.php");

Would you like to private message me your msn address so we can have a talk about this.

johany

It's better if you post any questions you may have here, so that others may benifit from the discussion.
