PHP - Uploading From One’s Own Computer & Internet
I know about
<input type="file" >which allows one to upload files from one’s computer. But now I need a pop-up window that allows the user to choose first if he uploads from his computer or from the internet. How may I achieve that ? This question is perhaps better suited for the "Javascript" or even "AJAX" forum ; if someone advises me to, I will move that question and put it in the appropriate forum. Similar TutorialsI have used sessions before I don't know whats going on. My sessions wont die. this is what im doing: <?php session_start(); $_SESSION['user'] = $_POST['email']; $_SESSION['pass'] = $_POST['pass']; ?> ok new page <?php session_start(); echo $_SESSION['user']; echo "<br>"; echo $_SESSION['pass'] ?> OK great is show the same info but now if I close my browser and go back to the second page where it echos it still shows the user//pass I have tried restarting and it still saves the dam session!

Example: MAIN, HOME, OFFICE, TOM32154}}{|\] like when first naming a PC with a new windows install. Hey, I'm trying to code a page which is supposed to bring up the time of a person's computer. Is this possible without majorly complicated coding? I'm good with GMT offsets and stuff but I don't know how to get the time of a person's computer. I don't want other stuff, just the time so I can edit the time based on where they are. I don't know if I'm making sense so here's an example... If someone does a forum post at 2pm Sydney time but it's 5pm Perth time. How can I make it so that someone in Perth sees 5pm but someone in Sydney sees 2pm...without them manually telling me their timezone? I read about using IP addresses but don't know much (Ok anything) about this , any hints or good sites to view would be appreciated? Or the answer if it's not too complex. Preferably I'd like to get the time in the 11 digit "time()" format so I can use it in tables and translate it with an existing function. IceKat Hi all, I've created a data-entry HTML page that posts to update.php. I am using mysql to store the data entered. When I enter data and hit "update database" button, the php file pops up and correctly shows the data entered, but the update.php file does not show that same data on another computer. I have checked the mysql database and it clearly shows that it the new data has been stored. Why isn't the data showing up on any other computer? I can provide codes as needed. Thanks. Richard i have recently bought a new samsung netbook so i downloaded the latest version of WAMP to develop my site. However when i run my site i get the internal server error associated with the htaccess file. The thing is that this file works on my desktop pc.

This topic has been moved to Miscellaneous. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=318425.0 Hi, I have a challenging dilema. A client keeps track of his stock using a microsoft access database in store. His ecommerce website which is hosted elsewhere uses php and mysql. Is it possible to to integrate the 2 so that when someone buys a product from the website, the store MS access database is updated to reflect this and vice versa? If so how would I go about it? Thanks in advance. P.S: I'm extremely tempted to suggest that he should stop using his ms access db and instead reccommend that I set him up a suitable backend on his website for keeping stock control, then he just login to that in the store. Hello Good day,
I am have a project for company. Can you please give me advice on how will I going to determine each computer assigned to each employee.
I have my own working unit (PC), of course that i used to login on our company web site. But when someone try to log in on our web site using their own account on my working unit it will be registered as fraud.
My problem is how will i am going to check if accountTwo try to log in on accountOne pc unit. Right now we're using cookie but if they use other browser or private browser the data on the cookie was not send on the request.
Righ now I am trying to determine using Mac Address of each PC, but still can't figure out how to get the Mac Address. It gives the server address where the site was hosted.
Is there a reason why on my local machine with php, my login system works, but then when I upload my files and test it on my web host, the login system doesn't work properly. I'm using the same php version on my local machine and on my webhost, so I don't understand why it wouldn't work the same. When I try logging in on my webhost, everything processes as normal when a correct user/pass combo is found in the database, however, my session just doesn't seem to be saved, and therefore I won't be logged in. It'll end up refreshing to the home page (as I have it setup), but it won't show me as logged in. Is there something special I need to do in order for the session to be stored correctly? (I realize I haven't pasted any code, but I'm not sure exactly how much code would be needed for me to show in order to resolve the issue). <?php shell_exe ("172.18.9.25\photoshop\photoshop.exe"); ?> When I run this from the server computer program opening. But when i tried from a diferent computer it is only downloading the exe file to the client computer. How can I open the application from a diferent computer in the same network. Hi Guys
I run a small roofing company and have been asked by many customers to be able to view / print / save Invoices & Estimates online rather than post etc. I host my own private site using IIS 7, with PHP and MySQL installed and setup properly, I also have a hosted domain from 1and1 What I would like is: Login Area (I can do this using the MySQL for the database) Once the user logs in, I want them to be directed to their "own" page with links to Their Own Invoices, Estimates and PIctures I would like an option somewhere for them to upload pictures into their own folder so if anything happens to their roof, they can simply log onto their account upload the pic of the damage and I can see it. and vice versa Can someone help me out a little?

I have a form with only 1 text box (input type=text) in this textbox I enter a local path on my computer to a specific folder. in this folder I have few files, each has a set name that I know in advance. what I want to do is to be able to upload all those files in my local folder to the server, without making the user click browes and pick them 1 by 1. I searched and searched but I see it's not as simple as I thought cuz I can't just set the value of the input file.. since my page has a form eitherway I thought of maybe doing something sneaky and hiding the input files and some how passing them the path of each file (the folder path will be taken from the not hidden textbox) and the file name is known to me so I can add those 2 somehow.. I can't find a way to do that, so I wonder if any of you have an idea? maybe it's possible to set the file path after the form is submited? basicly I think it's possible to give the name of the file, but I also need the temp name of the file ($_FILES['docfile1']['tmp_name']), and this I don't know how to set.. this is my code for uploading a file with <input type=file> Code: [Select] if ($_FILES['docfile1']['name']!='') { $target = 'import/'; $target = $target . basename($_FILES['docfile1']['name']); if ($target =="import/myfile.xlsx"){ if (file_exists($target)) unlink($target); if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['docfile1']['tmp_name'], $target)) { echo 'success'; }else{ echo 'fail'; } }else{ echo 'fail'; } }desperately need help! I have made a script to upload a few files from the pc to my server.. like i upload big files which are generally above 50mb of size.. but most of the times as there is some problem with the internet the hours of wait is just ruined.. is there a better way to upload files.. or anything that if the internet connection is interupted the downloading starts from wer it stopped cuz of the problem.. please help.. i use the normal function for uploading a file move_uploaded_file($_FILES['song1_upload']['tmp_name'] can anyone give a better idea than this? |
