That is the problem, i can see the name of the file with $txtPhoto['name'] but when i use the same with temp_name, i get nothing, one weird thing is this [error] => 0 [size] => 17008 , what is that? this is the code that is giving the problem $txtPhotoData = addslashes(fread(fopen($txtPhoto, "r"), filesize($txtPhoto))); And this is the error Warning: fopen() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in > /usr/www/users/zululr/marketplace/myzululand/specials_proc.php on line 49 I did not do the code im just trying to help out, if never use this kind of code to work with photos, i normally use move_uploaded_file and put the path in the databse, but it look like this code puts the photo in the database as binary or something.
