PHP - Video Uploading Script With Conversion To Multiple File Types?

Hey all,

I am building a simple cms. I have a posts table and I have an images table. A post has many images and images has a foreign key to the posts table. So when a user edits, updates, creates, and deletes a post, they affect the images related to the post. Sometimes a post can have more than one image, like three images. Hence I rendered this in the view (note that I am using a datamapper that converts tables to objects and fields to key/value pairs):

Code: [Select]
foreach($records as $post){
echo form_open_multipart("homes/update/$post->id"); //File uploads require a multipart form. Default form handling uses the application/x-www-form-urlencoded content type. Multipart forms use the multipart/form-data encoding. //this is critical to pass the id as part of the action attribute of the form, so we can use our params hash to target the id to update the specific record
 
  echo label('Update Title');
echo form_input('title',$post->title);
echo label('Update Body');
echo form_textarea('body',$post->body);

  $images = $post->images->include_join_fields()->get();
if(!is_null($images->image_file_name)){ 
  echo label('Update Images');
foreach($images as $image){
echo form_upload('image_file_name',$image->image_file_name); 
}
}

}
echo form_submit('submit','Update');
The above line of code will render a few input file types. The problem occurs during posting to my update method. It is looking for one parameter from the input file field and so if I upload three different images, it will only look for one and write only one to database:

Code: [Select]
$field_name = 'image_file_name';
  if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload($field_name)){
  $error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
echo $error['error'];
// redirect('homes/edit');
  }
else {
  $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
$image_file_name = $data['upload_data']['file_name'];

Is it possible to do wht I am trying to do? Should I only have on input file type per form submission or is that I need to fix the code to accomodate for multiple submissions by creating an array of sorts?

Thanks for response.

Hey, been trying to make a form to upload an image to the server and also email the image as attachment. After nearly a week I managed to make it work. Only some validation needs to be done.

My next step is to make it work for multiple files, ie. 5. The form will have 5 boxes to upload images and no more. I have tried a few different things with for loops ( ie for $i=0; $i<5; $i++ {...} ) but no luck. I can't think of any solution of a loop to upload multiple files and then email multiple attachment as my code.

The code is:


<?php
session_start();
$imagename1 = $_FILES["uploadFile1"]["name"];
    $_SESSION['imagename1'] = $imagename1;

$imagename1 = $_SESSION['imagename1'];

Hey all

So have been working on a file upload script, it was uploading the file but also adding the path name instead of NULL to mysql when no image was to upload, that is now fixed however now it won't upload the actual image to the directory.  I tried undoing the mysql changes but it still won't upload the image to the directory.  Am testing on my own computer using xampp so no file permission issues, plus it was working before.  Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

Hey Guys,

How are custom Mime Types achieved?  Had a quick search through the forums, and most of the posts relate to mail() questions.

Did a google search and found a completely useless article that told me to edit a non-existent text box.
Quick example, the file type I want is .WAgame, I got this far before I realised what I was doing didn't make sense.  So I looked up mime types, knowing that this file would not exist.

if ($_FILES["file"]["type"] != "file/WAgame")
      {
       naughty!
      }


Help!
Edit:

Hi phpfreaks, please I have being working on a media site for few months now and I have designed everything that needs to be designed but A♏ having problems with my uploading code its not storing the file size in the database,  I have tried and tried and all what have being doing seem to be taking me away from the right way with my little understanding of php. Here is the code that is giving me headache
