[RESOLVED] simple imagemagick upload query

[clairence]

I'm having a hard time finding simple instructions for using ImageMagick.

I see how to manipulate images already on the server,
but no details on uploading an image initially.

How would I upload an image using ImageMagick?

Thanks.

ImageMagick is just a manipulation tool. To upload an image, all you have to do is make sure you specify the enctype of the form to be multipart/form-data

Then make sure you have an input tag with the type of file. That will allow a user to browse for a file on their computer and upload it to your server. From there, verification and manipulation is up to you.

For a simple example please see Handling File Upload in the php manual.

Thanks, Brett.

I am familiar with file uploads in general, I was just under the impression that ImageMagick had its own method of uploading files as well, in addition to its manipulation functions.

I will go back to what I know for uploading and then work ImageMagick after that.

thanks for your reply.
