PHP - How To Upload File From Client To Server Using Php
I designed a web form that takes as input a file and that should upload that file on the server. The file is located on the client machine. The page containing the web form is handled by PHP script.
I found out (reading 9483658954 forum topics so far) that there are 2 methods for getting a file uploaded. The first one is using FTP, and the second one using $_FILES variable. Unfortunately i have complains regarding both of the methods. Firstly, when attempting to upload the file using FTP it seems that rather the FTP server is calling "upload" a simple copy action (because the only successful thing i could do with FTP was to copy a file from location A to location B, both A and B being on the server) or I don't know to use FTP (which is probably the right answer). Then, when using $_FILES variable, I was forced to include ' enctype="multipart/form-data" ' in the form tag. After a long documentation I finally figured out that by including the enctype blah blah, the $_POST and $_FILES variables were NULL after the form was submitted.Still can't understand why! Are there any other methods for uploading a file from the client machine to the server? Can I get a competent script for this? Similar Tutorials
i have php at server side and c++ at client side.what i am trying to do is to constantly look for files on server in folder on server if there’s a file in folder then download it on client side and delete it from server folder I wish to create validation rules once which are used both on the client and on the server.
For instance, I will start off with the following PHP object:
stdClass Object
(
[rules] => stdClass Object
(
[email] => stdClass Object
(
[required] => 1
[email] => 1
[remote] => stdClass Object
(
[url] => check-email.php
[type] => post
[data] => stdClass Object
(
[username] => function() {return $( '#username' ).val();}
)
)
)
)
[messages] => stdClass Object
(
[email] => stdClass Object
(
[required] => an email is required
)
)
)
When the edit page is downloaded to the client, I will include this object in some format suitable to the client.
The client will then use the jQuery Validation plugin (http://jqueryvalidation.org/) along with the validation object, and client side validate the page.
When the form passes client side validation and is uploaded, PHP will use the same validation object to serverside validate the form (I have this part working as desired).
My question is how should I pass this data to the client? Originally, I would just use PHP to write some JavaScript.
exit('var myObj='.json_encode($myObj));
Note that when I json_encode the object, the value of $myObj->rules->email->remote->data->username is a string with quotes around it, however, I can easily use PHP to strip these tags before sending it to the client.
As Jacques1 pointed out in http://forums.phpfre...ascript-client/, I should never ever use PHP to generate JavaScript, and should use AJAX to download the JSON directly. I tried doing the later, but found that a callback function could not be included in the JSON.
Please advise on the best way to accomplish this.
Thank you
Anyone know how I can print a file (specifically a PDF) that is stored on the server to the clients computer with a button? I don't want them to be able to view it, just print it. I've done some research and understand that there is no way to print directly without popping up the Windows Print dialog. And that is fine. I just want them to print this file, but not no where it is or be able to type in a URL to access it. Thanks Mike I have a script that uploads my file, but this script requires apache. I want to get this file onto my other server that's running nginx. Is there a way for PHP to write a file to nginx? Alternatively, is there a way for PHP to copy a file from one server to another? Because that will work as well. How do I do this? Hi I have a form which is used to upload files to my server, now i need to move files to another server as soon they are uploaded, but move_uploaded_file will work with local server where form has been submitted. i was thinking to add some ftp functions to upload that file to remote server but is there any better way? that user dont notice ftp connection timing. i wants to use less ftp connections and user should not notice delay timing for image upload. Thanks for any suggestion. i am making song site i want to upload songs files on another instread on which m running my script for uploading songs and adding information in data... mean want to know is there any function or method that i upload files through the panel of www.site1.com and my files upload on an other server www.site2.com. which code i have to write for doing this Hi, I need to make web site, which will get requests from users that log in and activate those scripts. But, the problem is that the server has to, when the script is activated, send request to another PC with the static IP address. Then, that PC should execute the script, send its results to server, and then the server will notice user who activated it (clicked on the link). So, the main problem is that server - client (static ip) communication, when the server is the first who sends request, not the client. Any instructions would be appreciated, thanks in advance. I have a client and a server solution setup at the moment. We are currently creating an API that will be run on the clients end that will allow their clients to connect to them. On our end, we want to log the number of attempts are API is being used so that we may charge the clients appropriately. My question is this. How is the most efficient way of doing this? Do I call mysql_connect from the client and just shoot the insert log statements across the web. Should I create a php script on our end that looks for post/get input and takes the data and inserts it? What if the client can't connect to our server; should I cache the data and send it off all at once? Should I create a job that every hour shoots up x records API requests happened? Relatively confused at what angle I should be taking when approaching this. I want this to be scalable to a point where we can have thousands of requests an hour, and not horribly slow down apache/mysql running at either end (Specially if the server is talking with several clients). files that upload during insert/submit form was gone , only files upload during the update remain , is the way query for update multiple files is wrong ?

Hello; I know there is a way but I just can't get it out of my head. I have my code that i want to show to the user and then i have code i want to execute but not show anything to user. I no am not making my self clear which i am sorry for so ill give you an example. <? show_my_site(true); // Now i have code which will never output anything but the webbrowser will always wait for it to complete my_function_that_takes_time(true, 'Very Long'); ?> So what i want is some code to tell the browser thats it! You have everything. I cant use die; or exit; because i want to execute the code. Thank-you Paul Can someone please help me in setting up OAuth server and client implementation in PHP? Even after lots of googling I could only find very basic and raw examples which are very difficult to understand. Thanks in advance. Hi All - I'm trying to see if the below is possible using PHP. is it possible for php to allow a user to check if a port is open/listening on a remote server/PC, from their local machine. I've seen scripts on the web that talk about opening cmd.exe - this won't work as not all of my users will be on windows. Also saw fsock.. but the remote server is not serving http page(s). Also saw telnet, but again, some of my users may not have that windows feature enabled. Desired workflow: 1. user enters the server hostname/IP and a port 2. my php webapp will emulate checking if that hostname and port is open from the local user's computer.
thanks! This topic has been moved to Miscellaneous. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=347977.0 I have a PHP web system that store in a windows server. In the system, there is a function for user to upload files to another server (Shared server in Unix). When i try to upload a file, it gives warning: Warning: move_uploaded_file(\\unixserver/sharedfolder/upload/test.txt) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\wamp\www\upload\index.php on line 40 For your information, my username has been assigned in xxx's group that has access to read and write on that folder. Besides, i'm able to open,create and delete files on that folder's server manually (samba). The safe mode setting is off. Does anybody has any idea why this thing happen? Hey. I am wanting to move a couple of files from my current server to another. If i am uploading the file this is fine but if it is already on the server then im not sure how to move it. When uploading I can just use ftp_put($conn_id, $destination_file, $myFile, FTP_BINARY); What i need to do is figure out how to get a hold of the file and store it in $myFile then this would work fine. Is this possible? Cheers HI Gurus, I need to export (download) a csv file from the web server to my client. How can this be done in php ? How is the save as dialog invoked ? (I am assuming that file save permissions are allowed) I read that if you invoke the following script (eg form submit), it will work .. <? header("Content-type: text/plain"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=YOUR_FILE.csv"); ?> Any advice ? Steven M I have a web portal which is scripted using client side scripting language i.e HTML. I want to create a login page in .php and want the other pages to be in .hmtl. Can i do so? I want to do this because i want the login password to be stored in a database. Also I want the password to get encrypted (by either MD5 javascript or OpenSSL ) when user enters it inside the login form. I cannot create the entire portal in php because my portal makes use of C code. And php doesn't have an interface with C language. Can a user get directed to a .html page after a secure login from login.php page ? My main aim is to secure the access to my web portal using a password. I tried to authenticate the login using javascript where the password was stored in an array. But i feel any one having moderate knowledge can easily break that password.
