PHP - Rename Uploaded File
Hi everyone, im a newbie and have written this script, has taken me a day to get here.
The form inserts data into the database, uploads a file and sends an email. All this works fine, what i am trying to do is rename the file to the id of the record and check to make sure it is a pdf. I would really appreciate any help. I've tried and tried and just cant get it to work. <?php switch ($_REQUEST['action']) { case 'recruit': foreach($_POST as $key=>$value){ $$key = $value; } if ((!$name) || (!$email) || (!$phone)) { $error_msg = 'Fields marked<span class="gold"> * </span>are required to submit the form'; }elseif (!eregi("^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$", $email)) { $error_msg = 'Invalid email address'; } echo "$error_msg","<br><br>"; if ($error_msg == ''){ $date=date("d/m/y", time()); $add="recruitment/".$_FILES[userfile][name]; $cleaned = stripit($add); $add2 = $cleaned; if(move_uploaded_file ($_FILES[userfile][tmp_name], $add2)); $Q = mysql_query("INSERT INTO recruitment (`name`,`phone`,`email`, `qual`,`exper`,`file`) VALUES ('$name','$phone','$email','$qual','$exper','$cleaned')"); foreach($_POST as $key=>$value){ $$key = htmlentities(stripslashes($value)); } $companyname = 'Mead Business college'; $companyemail = 'ross@emediastudios.com.au'; $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"; $headers .= "From: ".$name." <".$email.">\r\n"; $headers .= "Reply-To: ".$name." <".$email.">\r\n"; $to = "".$companyname."<".$companyemail.">"; $subject = "Mead Business College Recruitment Form Submission"; $message = '<style type="text/css>"; <!-- .style { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; } --> </style> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td class="style"> <b>Details:</b><br /><br /> <b>Name:</b> '.$name.'<br /> <b>Email:</b> '.$email.'<br /> <b>Mobile No:</b> '.$phone.'<br /> <b>Qualifications:</b><br> '.$qual.'<br /> <b>Experience:</b><br /><br />'.$exper.'<br /><br /> <b>Uploaded resume:</b> http://www.mydomain.com.au/'.$cleaned.' </td> </tr> </table>'; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); echo '<table width="99%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td class="mybody">Hi '.$name.',<p />Thank you for your enquiry.

I was told that storing a photo as a blob was much harder than simply storing a photo's url or directory location...
So... when a file has been selected through the browse-file manager triggered by
<input type="file"...>and the file selected is shown, when a person pusehs "upload" what is supposed to happen? Do I need some kind of FTP client to access the server and place the photo in there? It seems so easy in a way like the built in filemanager in cPanel... What am I missing? Thanks for any help. What's the maximum file size I can upload through a regular form ? If it's server dependant, how do I find out my max ? I tried to handle a 550MB file (on localhost) - I only wanted to show the filename, but it hung up for about 10secs, then returned nothing. Hi I need to change the name of a file being uploaded by a user. The reason i need this is because there is a strong possibility that duplicate filenames would be logged. This is the code i have currently: Code: [Select] $upload_path = 'cv/'; // The place the files will be uploaded to (currently a 'files' directory). $filename = $_FILES['userfile']['name']; // Get the name of the file (including file extension). $ext = substr($filename, strpos($filename,'.'), strlen($filename)-1); // Get the extension from the filename. // Check if we can upload to the specified path, if not DIE and inform the user. if(!is_writable($upload_path)) die('You cannot upload to the specified directory, please CHMOD it to 777.'); // Upload the file to your specified path. if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'],$upload_path . $filename)); This code works fine to upload the file in the current name. I assume i need to seperate the filename from the file extension, and i can then assign a new variable to the filename. Easier said than done though as Ive tried many combinations of things. Is there a simple way using this script? or will i need to start from scratch? Cheers Why does the following code not detect the following file? After I select a file and I click upload, it goes back to the upload form. <?php include_once("includes/config.php"); //grab their type if(!$_COOKIE['user']) { //they are a guest $info = "Guest"; } else { //they are a user $info = $_COOKIE['user']; } if(!$_FILE['file']) { $content = '<form action="submit.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <label for="file">SELECT SKIN:</label> <input type="file" name="file" id="file" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </form>'; } else { if($_FILES['file']['error'] > 0) { $content = "There was an error trying to upload the skin ".$_FILES['file']['name'].".".$_FILES['file']['error']; } } ?> <html> <head> <title><?php $title; ?></title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="theme/style.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="header"> MCSkins </div> <?php echo "Submitting as: ".$info."<br/><br/>".$content; ?> </body> </html> My 1st try practice uploading file to the server and it was successful. Now I wonder how can I set a default file name to the file that will be uploaded and overwrite the existing one. I have tried experimenting on the code but I can't get it to work. Here's my simple code.. edit_logo.php Code: [Select] <?php <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="uploaded_logo.php"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" /> <tr> <td>Choose a Logo to Upload: </td> <td><input name="uploaded_file" type="file" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td><input type="submit" value="Upload File" name="submit>"</td> </tr> </form> ?> uploaded_logo.php Code: [Select] <?php if($_FILES['uploaded_file']["type"] == "image/gif") { $target_path = "logo/"; $target_path = $target_path. basename($_FILES['uploaded_file']['name']); if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploaded_file']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) { echo "<span class=\"error_validation\">The Logo has been successfully changed!<br></span>"; echo "<span class=\"error_validation\">Upload Logo Again? <a href=\"edit_logo.php\">Click Here</a><br></span>"; } else { echo "<span class=\"error_validation\">There was an error uploading the logo.

We are only accepting image file. Pls. try again.<br></span>"; echo "<span class=\"error_validation\">Upload Logo Again? <a href=\"edit_logo.php\">Click Here</a><br></span>"; } ?> So what the code suppose to do is.. If I upload an image file as the new logo it should have the default logo name "my_logo.gif", then it will overwrite the existing one... Anyone? Hi guys, I need some PHP/jquery code that constantly checks a folder for when files are added to it, then grabs the file/s and processes them through a php function.

Any help/suggestions are much appreciated. Cheers in advance.
