Uploading Pictures

@DJRobThaManJun 18.2006 — #I actually am working on a projectr where I have to do the same. Here is my code:

[code=php]
 <html>
 <head>
 <title>
 
 <?php
 
 $files = glob("images/*.*");
 $i = 0;
 
 while($files[$i])
 {
 if(substr(strstr($files[$i], "/"), 1) == $_FILES['pic']['name'])
 {
 ?>
 Upload Failed
 </title>
 </head>
 
 <body>
 
 
 There is already a file on the server with the name <?php echo $_FILES['pic']['name']; ?>.  Please rename your file and try again.
 <div style="float: right;">
 <a title "Click here to view a list of files on the server for reference" href="images.php">List of files on server</a>
 </div>
 <?php
 exit();
 }
 
  $i++;
 }
 
 if(!empty($_FILES['pic']['name']))
 {
 ?>
 Uploading File
 </title>
 <script type="text/javascript">
 <!--
 
 function sendInfo()
 {
 
  var pic = "images/<?php echo str_replace(' ', '_', $_FILES['pic']['name']); ?>";
  var imgInfo = "<?php echo str_replace('"', '"', $_POST["text"]); ?>";
  var start = <?php echo $_POST["start"]; ?>;
  var info = opener.document.getElementById("post").value;
 
  if(document.selection)
  {
   opener.sel.text = "<img alt="" + imgInfo + "" src="" + pic + "">";
  }
  else
  {
   opener.document.getElementById("post").value = info.substring(0, start) + "<img alt="" + imgInfo + "" src="" + pic + "">" + info.substring(start, info.length);
  }
 }
 
 -->
 </script>
 </head>
 
 <body>
 
 <?php
 echo "Uploading file...";
 $fup = move_uploaded_file($_FILES['pic']['tmp_name'], "images/" . str_replace(' ', '_', $_FILES['pic']['name']));
 
  if($fup)
  {
   echo "<br>" . $_FILES['pic']['name'] . " has been successfully uploaded.";
  }
  else
  {
   echo "<br>The file <b>" . $_FILES['pic']['name'] . "</b> failed to upload.  Please try again.";
  }
 ?>
 <div style="float: right;">
 <a title="Close window" onClick="<?php
 if($fup)
 {
 echo "sendInfo(); ";
 }
 ?>javascript:window.close();" href=""><?php
 if($fup)
 {
 echo "Apply Changes to the Main Window";
 }
 else
 {
 echo "Close Window";
 }
 ?></a>
 </div>
 <?php
 }
 else
 {
 ?>
 Uploading File
 </title>
 </head>
 
 <body>
 
 An error has occurred with the upload of the file <b><?php echo $_FILES['pic']['name']; ?></b>.  Please try again.
 <?php
 }
 
 ?>
 
 </body>
 </html>
 [/code]

I've bolded the most important part I think (the part where the php code actually takes the picture from the user's PC and uploads it to the server). Everything else is error catching and a little formatting, as well as adding text to a textarea in another window (that's there because in my project I have a new pop-up with this code appear for the upload and then after the image is placed on the server I insert code into the textarea of the previous window).

I haven't checked this code in a while, but I remember it working the last time I used it. Let me know if it works out for you.

PS Okay, so the bold tags don't work within the php tags. So here is the excerpt I was talking about.

[code=php]
 <?php
 echo "Uploading file...";
 $fup = move_uploaded_file($_FILES['pic']['tmp_name'], "images/" . str_replace(' ', '_', $_FILES['pic']['name']));
 
  if($fup)
  {
   echo "<br>" . $_FILES['pic']['name'] . " has been successfully uploaded.";
  }
  else
  {
   echo "<br>The file <b>" . $_FILES['pic']['name'] . "</b> failed to upload.  Please try again.";
  }
 ?>
 [/code]

One more edit:

In $_FILES['pic']['name']... "pic" is the name of the file input in the form where the user selects which image to upload
