Hi, i have wrote forms that allow me to upload images and save into the folder and send image file path name to the database, i have run it and test is works fine when save images into the folder but is not sending data to the mysql database. i'm not sure what went wrong but the result is not telling us the errors. it said it has send to database but the truth is not sending to database.
This is mysql table name
please create folder name images
CREATE TABLE employees (name VARCHAR(30), email VARCHAR(30), phone VARCHAR(30), photo VARCHAR(30))
this index.php form page
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="add.php" method="POST">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
E-mail: <input type="text" name = "email"><br>
Phone: <input type="text" name = "phone"><br>
Photo: <input type="file" name="photo"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Add">
</form>
this is retrieve information from index.php page
<?php
//This is the directory where images will be saved
$target = "images/";
$target = $target . basename( $_FILES['photo']['name']);
//This gets all the other information from the form
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$phone=$_POST['phone'];
$pic=($_FILES['photo']['name']);
// Connects to your Database
mysql_connect("your.hostaddress.com", "username", "password") or die(mysql_error()) ;
mysql_select_db("Database_Name") or die(mysql_error()) ;
//Writes the information to the database
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `employees` VALUES ('$name', '$email', '$phone', '$pic')") ;
//Writes the photo to the server
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name'], $target))
{
//Tells you if its all ok
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded, and your information has been added to the directory";
}
else {
//Gives and error if its not
echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.";
}
?>
and this final step to view it.
<?php
// Connects to your Database
mysql_connect("your.hostaddress.com", "username", "password") or die(mysql_error()) ;
mysql_select_db("Database_Name") or die(mysql_error()) ;
//Retrieves data from MySQL
$data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM employees") or die(mysql_error());
//Puts it into an array
while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $data ))
{
//Outputs the image and other data
Echo "<img src=http://www.yoursite.com/images/".$info['photo'] ."> <br>";
Echo "<b>Name:</b> ".$info['name'] . "<br> ";
Echo "<b>Email:</b> ".$info['email'] . " <br>";
Echo "<b>Phone:</b> ".$info['phone'] . " <hr>";
}
?>
