Hi,
I check the posts about uploading images from browser. No one give me a
whole procedure how to do it. My friend told me I can upload binary/image
file using following steps:
I want to know are these steps standard steps that insert images into a table?
Step 1 upload it
<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<tr><td>upload </TD><TD><input type="file" name="pic"
size=40></td></tr></form>
<?
if($pic_name != '')
{
$len = strlen($pic_name)-4;
$ext = substr($pic_name,$len);
$ext = strtolower($ext);
$File="/www/pics/test".$ext;
exec("cp $pic $File");
Use the move_uploaded_image function in PHP. Safer and easier.
}
?>
Step 2 Read it
$fd = fopen($img_name, "r");
while ($post_file = fread($fd, 4096))
{
$filestuff .= $post_file;
}
fclose($fd);
Step 3 insert or update into the table using insert or update
Are you sure you want to keep the file in the database? It will bloat it
out quite a bit (depending on the size and type of your files of course).
Why need keep either a filename or filepath and just store the file itself
on the machine ?
Anyway, check out the pg_lo_import function in the PHP manual for a
starting point.
