PHP - Local File Browsing To Return File Path
I have a made a section on my site where I can upload files to a specific directory, rename them and delete them. So I don't have to go through a FTP program. When renaming and deleting a file I connect using FTP commands with PHP, except when uploading. When uploading it gets the file that has been uploaded from the form on the page before which has its own code using <input type="file"> to search for a local file, then when submit is clicked it uploads it. Then on my PHP script it moves that file from the temp upload folder to the actual site.
Bottom line is, is there any way I can make a button that opens a file browser on the users PC and returns the filepath chosen? So I can use FTP to upload the file rather than the form? Similar Tutorials<td><label for='images'> <b>File to upload:</b> </label></td> <td><input type='file' name = 'drama_image' '<?php echo $row['drama_image']; ?>'/></ </tr> <?php $target_path = "images/"; $target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['images']['name']); if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['images']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) { echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['images']['name']). " has been uploaded"; } else{ echo $row['drama_image']; } ?> ['drama_image'] is the name of the file I wanna echo it out in the box of file upload so when I save , the default picture will still be there instead of being overwritten as the box does not have any value in it. Hello. if i use a function to my layouts header file it works but if i try the same code to call my css file it doesn't work. any ideas? this is the code that gets the layout and works in the initialize file i have a path to the template: Code: [Select] <?PHP defined('DS') ? null : define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR); defined('ADMIN_TEMP') ? null : define('ADMIN_TEMP', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].DS.'djsonrotation'.DS.'admin'.DS.'templates'); then i have a function that looks for the layouts (header, footer etc) inside of the template set in the database Code: [Select] function include_admin_layout($layout){ $tempBS = basicSettings::find_by_id(1); $TaID = $tempBS->activeAdminTemp_id; $tempID = Templates::find_by_id($TaID); $name = $tempID->name; echo include(ADMIN_TEMP.DS.$name.DS.'layouts'.DS.$layout); } then i call the layout on the page Code: [Select] <?php include_admin_layout('header.php'); ?> THAT ALL WORKS. IT GETS THE HEADER FILE FROM INSIDE admin/templates/template name = ($name)/layouts/header.php this is the code that im trying to use to get the css file that does not work the initialize file is the same: Code: [Select] <?PHP defined('DS') ? null : define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR); defined('ADMIN_TEMP') ? null : define('ADMIN_TEMP', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].DS.'djsonrotation'.DS.'admin'.DS.'templates'); then i have a function that looks for the css file inside template/css/ Code: [Select] function include_admin_css($css){ $tempBS = basicSettings::find_by_id(1); $TaID = $tempBS->activeAdminTemp_id; $tempID = Templates::find_by_id($TaID); $name = $tempID->name; echo include(ADMIN_TEMP.DS.$name.DS.'css'.DS.$css); } then i call the css on the page the same as i did for layouts Code: [Select] <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="<?php include_admin_css('styles.css'); ?>" media="screen,projection,tv"/> THAT DOES NOT WORK BUT ITS ALL THE SAME ????? why is that ????

I got that working fine, but the file path shows up with it. Any idea how to remove it? Here is the code I am using. Code: [Select] <?php $dir = "/downloads/"; $files = glob($dir."*.zip", GLOB_NOSORT); echo'<select name="Files">'; foreach($files as $file){ echo'<option value="'.$file.'">'.$file.'</option>'; } echo'</select>'; ?> Hi, i have problem with libraries, with fpdf and PHPEcel, problem is same... Can't open file C:\xampp\htdocs\skripta\.... - this is path to php script on my computer everything work ok on localhost when i test, but when i upload to web server, pdf script try to create file with old windows path: Can't open file C:\xampp\htdocs\skripta\, and not with linux path... does anyone have solution, and why is that? Is there a way to get the source path for an uploaded file? It seems that's a function of the browser and the two I've tried FF and Safari don't return it in $_FILES['file']['name']. I have an edit page but whenever I click edit the pathname of the original file is not in the file box so everytime I hit the save button , it will be considered as no file so my previous image or file will be overwritten by "nothing". I want to save an image with a unique name that is created from a hash function. How can I cretae the path with the variable... Code: [Select] $hash=$_GET['hash']; $path ="/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/test_upload/images/imagename2.png"; //becomes $path ="/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/test_upload/images/'.$hash.'.png";? What is an equivalent super global to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] that gives me JUST the currently opened document name without the path? e.g. profile.php but NOT: directory1/directory2/profile.php What I mean by that is, if I echo out $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], it will give me the directories as well, but I'm just interested in the document name. I've looked for the $_SERVER super global in the PHP manual, but no results come up. Given a directory - folder1/subfolder1, I would like to loop through all subdirectories under the given directory and return the file path relative to the given directory. Example: Code: [Select] Given Directory FolderA FolderB SubFolderA SubFolderB SubSubFolderA File1 FolderC the file path for File1 should be FolderB/SubFolderB/SubSubFolderA/ Any ideas? Hello Pros...
