Hi everyone, I have been struggeling with this for some time know and don't know where it goes wrong. I want to upload pictures into a folder AND store their path into MySQL. I used a joe's auto tutorial but can't get it to work. All the information is put in correctly but not the picture. Please help me, here's my code: (ps globals are off) if ($_POST[submit]) { $link = mysql_pconnect("localhost","myusername","mypassword"); $db = test; mysql_select_db($db,$link); $query = "INSERT INTO inventory (registration,type,total_time,price,description,picture_name) VALUES ('$_POST[registration]','$_POST[type]','$_POST[total_time]','$_POST[price]', '$_POST[description]','$_POST[picture]')"; exec("cp $_POST[picture] //localhost/seabird.jmtech.ca/OTF.com/images/$_POST[picture_name]"); mysql_query( $query, $link); print 'Thank you<br>You have submitted the following information:<br>'; echo "Registration: $_POST[registration]<br>\n"; echo "Type: $_POST[type]<br>\n"; echo "Total Time: $_POST[total_time]<br>\n"; echo "Price: $_POST[price]<br>\n"; echo "Description: $_POST[description]<br>\n"; echo "temp file: $_POST[picture]<br>\n"; echo "file name: $_POST[picture_name]<br>\n"; echo "file size: $_POST[picture_size]<br>\n"; echo "file type: $_POST[picture_type]<br>\n"; echo "<br>\n"; echo "<img src=images/$picture_name><br>\n"; } else { ?> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>"> <p>Registration<br> <input type="Text" name="registration" size="25" value="N"> <br> type<br> <input type="Text" name="type" size="25"> <br> total time<br> <input type="Text" name="total_time" size="25"> <br> price<br> <input type="Text" name="price" size="25"> <br> Description<br> <textarea name="description"></textarea> <br> picture<br> <input type="file" name="picture" size="25"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Upload"> </p> </form> -- http://seabird.jmtech.ca Attitude is Everything!
