Hey guys I am building a website and the clients wants the ability for customers to upload their pictures to the website. I was wondering if any of you had a php java or whatever that could tell me how to do this? basically like myspace where you can upload pics to the site and see it automatically....


thanks guys,

you might be able to rip it out of phpnuke type of coding and get it to work if you would want to use that.

this is pretty simple in php, as long as the server supports it.

you make a form that looks basically like this:
[HTML]
<form method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data' action='[some page].php'>
<input type='file' name='thefile' value=''>
<input type='submit name='submit' value='submit'>
</form>
[/HTML]

then on the [some page] you need something similar to:
[PHP]
<?
if(is_uploaded_file($_FILES['thefile']['tmp_name'])==true) { //make sure it uploaded
$extension=strtolower(ereg_replace(".*/","",$_FILES['thefile']['type'])); // type will be like 'image/gif' or 'image/jpg'
if($extension!='gif' &&$extension!='jpg' &&$extension!='png') {
die('not a valid image');
}
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['thefile']['tmp_name'],'pictures/'.$_FILES['thefile']['name'].".".$extension) or die('failed to move file');
// then you can open the image in GD to make sure it's a valid image, and not an exe or something like that
}
?>
[/PHP]

I found an easy to use file file upload script. It does not put the files on automatically, but it will upload to your server, send you (or the admin) an email telling you there is a file waiting, and you can then put the pic wherever you want.

You can also use a wiki.
