PHP Gallery Upload Code

Awaddell9950 Feb 6, 2015 4:00 AM

Hi there,

I'm currently in the process of making a website for my my module in my course. I've to add a Gallery page to my website, and it has to have the function of enabling a person to upload an image onto that page. I've been searching around and I haven't really found anything that works for me, yet. I'm just hoping that maybe someone could point me in the right direction in terms of the code? I've got my Login/Register/Logout working with PHP but I just need this one last item to be ticked off the list.

Thanks,

Andrew

HI Nancy!

I've finally found the time to attack this, again. I'm a little stuck on the " $target = "upload/";" bit. I'm not really sure what I've to put in there.

Thats a folder named 'upload' on the server where your uploaded images will be strored.

So if you want to store your images in a folder named 'pictures' then asign that to the $target variable:

" $target = "pictures/";"

You know you need a working server for this to work, right - either a local set up or remote one, have you got either of those set up?

Hi there!

I'm using 000webhost to test the website. When I upload an image, I made sure it was a relatively small .jpg image, it gives me the, "sorry, there was a problem with your file.".

I've got a folder called "images" so would my target be " $target = "images/"

I think? I appreciate the fast response, by the way!

Check to see if FILE UPLOADS is enabled on the server.

Insert the below piece of php code in a blank Dreamweaver php document and save it as php_info.php - upload to server - browse to it and see what information is returned. Scroll down the list to 'Core' and look for file_uploads - it should say On

<?php
// Show all information, defaults to INFO_ALL
phpinfo();
?>

I've checked the document's core, and file_uploads are 'on'.

I'm not really sure where to go from here, haha

Okay, I've got it to work, finally.

I just need to display the images automatically, somehow. Is there a tutorial that carries on from the upload code?
