Uploads and Databases

[Anon]

I'm fairly new to php, I am able to create a program that uploads a file to a specific location and also one that adds form data to a mySql database. I am generally wondering how i could link these two functions together to be able to add information about the file to the database, resulting in a search engine similar to that of audiofind's.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated

Hi: I think u shall do this like this:
At first u can let your client upload the file to your server side(to be safe u shall limit the filesize to be uploaded). And then u will get the file in a directory at your server side. Then u can use fileopen and insert them to your databse . And if u don't want to backup the file got u shall delete the file from temp_dir .This is a easy way .Good lucky.
