Full Local Path Of $_FILES
When processing a standard file upload form, is it possible to save the full local path of the file? If there is an arror on the form, I want to re-display the file name in the field when it reloads. This data doesn't seem to get posted. All the local path info is stripped off.

$_FILES From The Server - Not Local Machine
I'm just playing with someone else's code and was wondering how to get details of a file that's already uploaded to my server into the $_FILES super global. the code I have is: ...$uploadedFileName = $_FILES['filename']['name']; if($_FILES['filename']['size'] > $maxSize) {... all the checks are done using this and I just want to parse all this info without the user having any control / knowledge of it at all. It's for an image upload script which has been built already, but I want lots of differing quality thumbnails to be generated, but the current code keeps asking the user to input size variables and path details to upload a file from their local machine.

I am able to get the folder name of where a file is in eg /folder/ but I don't knwo how to get the full folder path like: www.example.com/folder1/folder2/folder3/ I know how to get the file and the example.com but not to list all the folders, how can I do this.
Cannot Include() Without Full Path
I'm trying to use include, but I can only use this by giving the full path on my linux system, I presume this is to do with my configuration. I have an include_path, but this seems to make no difference.
Trouble Getting Full Path To Client File
using php 4.2.0 on xp and writing a simple uploader. using $_FILES["name"] was expecting the full path to stick through basename(), but its only returning the already trimmed path. How d'ya get the full path using $_FILES...?
I Have Sub-categories But Want To Display Full Category Path
Let's say I have a simple web application running with just two MySQL tables. The tables structure is as follows: Table: category category_id (PK) category_name parent_category (FK) //references category_id in this table Table: link link_id (PK) link_name link_description category_id (FK) //references category_id in category table Here is the data in the category table 1, England, 0 2, West Yorkshire, 1 3, Batley, 2 4, Leeds, 2 5, Bradford, 2 As you can see Batley, Leeds and Bradford are sub-categories of West Yorkshire which itself is a sub-category of England. What I want to display when I am browsing through sub-categories of links is not only the name of that sub-category but it's category's parents, grand parents and so on like the below example. UK >West Yorkshire >Batley I see this on a lot of directory sites but none of my PHP books cover how this is done. Must be quite simple so can someone please point me in the right direction. Hope I've explained it well enough, haven't a clue what this process is called.
Suppressing Full Path Dump On Interpreter Warnings?
I read somewhere that showing the full path during an error dump is a "bad thing": /dir1/dir2/somedir/script_that_died.php Like during a parse error or a warning from the interpreter. How can I tell the PHP interpreter to show only the script filename and if possible, one or two directories above?
How To Find Full Path Of A File Upload Field In A Form?
I need a way to find the full path of a file uploaded by file upload form box. $_FILES['file1']['name'] gives just file name. I have a file upload form and if the user submitted something wrong I want the page to go back and have the forms maintain its values (the full path to local file, e.g: "c:/docs/landscape.jpg"). Any way to do that? This is a more complex applications so using another upload tool is not an option.
Relative Path / Absolute Path
What is the best way to resolve paths within a document regardless of what path it is opened under? For example: I have x.php and it contains <img src="images...">, (amongst other things, like php code), which resolves the correct image path when opened under / but when x.php is read into a file under /dir the image no longer resolves, for obvious reasons. With absolute paths, this isn't an issue but it is with relative paths. Although I can think of a kludge, or two, I figure that there is a more elegant solution.
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE - Workaround For Local-infile=0
I'm using a PHP script for updating my database which relies on the "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE" command. As my provider recently updated the MySQL-database, he changed the "local-infile" setting to zero, i.e. my update-script doesn't work anymore (=> "The used command is not allowed with this MySQL version"). Is there a work-around to fix this problem? I though about the mysql_options command, but to frankly speaking, I have no clue how to use it and couldn't figure out how to properly use it even after reading the manual ... anyone who could help?
Each $_FILES
nothing shows up when I run this code from a form? I'm trying to cycle through what needs to be uploaded. I have 5 file inputs. echo "Values submitted via FILESbr /> "; reset ($_FILES); while (list ($key, $val) = each ($_FILES)) { echo "$key => $val<br /> "; }
Put $_FILES Into A Session
I'm trying to get my $_FILES arrays into a session because I want to move the files later to a specific directory (ie after I get a result_id from a sql insert). No problem putting the variables in a session but I can't move $_SESSION['userfile']['tmp_name'] anymore. $_SESSION['userfile']['error'] is 0 so I don't really see what could be the problem....
$_FILES/forms
Is there any way of setting the $_FILES array without actually uploading a file through http upload? I ask because I want to send a file that already exists on my server to be handled by my script that deals with normal uploads. The reason the file has to be sent in the $_FILES array is that this is how the upload script receives and processes files and it is zend encoded so I can't edit it!
$_FILES Superglobal: Where Is The Filename
$_FILES superglobal does not work for me, i use php 4.1.1 if i look in $_REQUEST i can finde the path to the uploaded file, but how do i get the name and mime type of that file? thanks for any help
$_FILES[] - Upload Variable Name
Is there a predefined variable name for a file when you are uploading to a server? I need to know the actual file name, Is there a way or will i have to use REGEX to parse out the name from the end of the path?
Can't Upload File To $_FILES
I'm trying to figure out why I can't upload a file in php. I'm trying it locally on a windows XP machine running Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.2.1. That is I am running the browser/server on same machine to test with. I also tried it on a remote linux server, though in that case I'm not sure what the s config settings where, except that it does have PHP and I get the same results. Are there any releevant apache settings ? I have not come accross any. Below is my script, results, and config settings. =------------------------------------------------------ <html> <body> <?php if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET') { ?> <form enctype="mutlipart/form-data" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] ?>" > <input type="file" name="document"/> <input type="submit" value="Send File"/> </form> </body> </html> <?php } else { echo "FILE="; print_r($_FILES); echo "</br></br>POST="; print_r($_POST); } -------------------------------------------------------- on a post I get an empty $_FILES object and something in the $_POST variable from the above prints: FILE=Array ( ) POST=Array ( [document] =feedblitz.txt ) # my php config file has these settings which I also verified with phphinfo() ; Whether to allow HTTP file uploads. file_uploads = On ; Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not ; specified). upload_tmp_dir = "c:playsoaptest"; ; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files. upload_max_filesize = 5M
From POST To GET: $_FILES Empty
I'm passing the code from $_POST to $_GET. I've a page upload using $_FILES. when the page was in $_POST, it worked fine, but now, in $_GET, the $_FILES is empty.
Clearing Out The $_FILES Variable
I posted yesterday and no one answered; I"m wondering if this list is having tech difficulties.... I'm having trouble with my $_FILES variable. What my program does is allow a person to have an image file on their web page. So if there is an upload, it processes it (resizes it if need be). If they choose to keep their old picture, it isn't supposed to do anything, but it still seems to be passing in a $_FILES variable ANYWAY! I did some wrangling to have it process the image based on another field, a checkbox that is checked showing the existing image and it indicates to keep it if it's on ($processsimage="no") But why is it still passing in a value for $_FILES['thefield'] anyway when there isn't anything in that field for upload? It poses a problem when they are adding a page that might not have an image on it (it's a content manager). I hope someone can help with this perplexing problem. I can't go back to using globals as I am on a quest to get away from using globals because it's a security risk, and I've been hacked already, and my ISP would like me to change my evil, global ways and so would i!
$_FILES[var][size] Question
I'm uploading a file to the server - I check the $_FIILES[var][size] variable to check for exceeding a certain limit (250KB in this case) _ I notice that when I try to upload files of 500KB or 900KB [size] holds the value and I can check it - however, if I try to upload a 2300KB file [size] is 0 - does anyone know what might be causing this? Why doesn't that large of a file also get recorded in the [size] variable?
$_FILES Does Not Work On Windows
I'm having a PHP problem. Whenever I use the $_FILES superglobal to upload files via a form, it never seems to work when I run it on any Windows system. However, when I run it on my Mac, the image uploads just fine with the same script. What could the problem be?
$_FILES['uploaded_file']['type']
I want to check the file type so I can add condtion to my image resize script. I have read that $_FILES['uploaded_file']['type'] is unreliable. Is there another way to determin the file type of a file before making copies of it?
Help With Str_replace & $_FILES Arrays Need To Loop?
Ok I am trying to get these loops figured out I have 10 files being uploaded- $_FILES['pic1-10'] I need to run str_replace on all 10 to eliminate any oddities " ","%20" to clean up the filenames before inserting names in db. foreach ($_FILES as $n) { $name=$n["name"] str_replace( " ", "",$name) now how do I get it read back into $_FILES['pic1']['name'] and continure on to pic2?
Fill $_FILES Argument From XML Parser
I've a function asking for a $_FILES argument: function insertarticle($particle,......,$pUserID,$pOptions, $files){ in this function I do add the record and then save the files in a subdirectory specific on some datas. This function is used by my "insert" form, letting the user to select images files to upload with <FILE> html tag. The files to upload are then passed to the $files like this: insertarticle(1884,......,4,$Options,$_FILES); for mantainance purpose, I avoid as much as possible to have the same code in 2 different pages. Also, using actually this function to add a record in the database (quite complex code) and saving files from a form, and using the same function to add records from an XML parser, I can't send images files to the function. My parser can save the images files on the server's directory, but how to pass $files parameters in order to save those files ? It's there any way to take the string containing the base64 image code (I do actually save it locally) and put it in a $_FILES array for passing it to the function ?
Access The $_FILES Array Without A Re-loading?
My user is uploading an image file with a files variable (userfile) in a form. After he's selected his image file, I want to be able to display it so that he can see what he's about to upload. Is there anyway I can access the $_FILES arrray so that I can get $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] so that I can find his image file so that I can then display it? - e.g. using javascript with an onclick or mouseover event. Without having to reload the script or load a new script?
$_FILES['File']['type'] Returns Nothing
I have an MP3 Upload site, but when a user logs in and uploads a file, more than half of the time the MP3's MIME type returns absolutely nothing! I don't think it's the code, because some of the music uploads well, it's just about 65% has no MIME! Any explanation?
File Field Validation $_FILES??
I have the following code that validates my form fields. I have a file field called file that I cant figure out how to validate. Code:
Any Reason Why $_FILES['userfile']['error'] Wouldn't Be Populated?
I am in the middle of writing an image upload script and am limiting the size of uploads via upload_max_filesize. This all seems to be working well, and if I try and upload a bigger file then I get an UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE sat in $_FILES['userfile']['error']. All hunkey dorey. However, in my testing there are one or two large files that cause problems. PHP appears to abort the upload early as it should, but when my script runs, $_FILES isn't populated at all?! I have tried to narrow down the difference in these file but I can't seem to find anything definate. All the ones that fail are AVI or WMV files if that gives any clue, but even if I rename them to MPG (others of which work ok), and check the MIME type being sent up has also changed to mpg, then they still fail as before. I have sent bigger and smaller files all ok, so it's not size. I can't see anything in the filename itself that would cause problems.
$_FILES[$field_name]['tmp_name'] Dirname Missing Trailing Slash
I've beat my head every way I can think of against this wall. Maybe someone here just knows the answer. I'm testing an upload class on my laptop WAMP server. When I run the test script, everything is fine. When I put together my own form and test uploading the same file, it fails because the $_FILES[$field_name]['tmp_name'] value is missing the trailing slash at the end of the temp dir name, so that the temp name looks like this: c:/wamp/tmpphp11.tmp instead of: c:/wamp/tmpphp11.tmp as in the packaged demo script. I know that this value is set in php.ini. But that can't be the problem as everything works fine in the demo script. As far as I can discern, this value -- the temp dir name -- is handled internally by PHP and not affected by the script, so I can't even check the value and add the slash if it's missing. So my question: does anyone know why the trailing slash is being dropped in my script? I've tried every variation I can think of. I even tried to replicate my error in the demo script by changing some of its form settings. I can't get the two script to do the same thing with this $_FILES[$field_name]['tmp_name'] value, even though everything else should be equal. All I can figure is that it has something to do with the forms' x/html settings. The only other significant different between the two scripts is that mine posts to itself and the demo to a separate page. Anyway, if you can answer this for me, you'd really make my day! :)
Full URL Include Using PHP
I am trying to insert a full URL include using PHP. The problem is the link within the PHP is using my domain name instead of it's own. Example: URL When it should be: URL Any clue as of why? Here is the include code that I used:
Retrieving Full Url?
Is there any way to pull from a variable of some sort the full address in the browser. Including any get variables currently there?... I ask because I have a number of different things, filters and such that should be compounded on each other. example. user has selected to filter a page by some field, user name or whatever depending on the data, then they choose to delete a record... etc. there are many uses i see, very possible with a lot of tweaking, but i thought there might be an easier way.
Mod_rewrite, XBitHack Full
Does anyone know how to get rid of the?id= I built a PHP shopping cart that works like so. http://www.MyDomain Name.com/products.php?id=108 I added the following .htaccess file so I can make the pages html. AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .php .htm XBitHack full Is there a way to use make the variable pass so that the URL and Links look static instead of dynamic? Example: http://www.MyDomain Name.com/products/108.html Is there some way to do this using mod_rewrite, or some other method? I have a few hundred products, with frequent inventory changes, so I don't really want to make them static by hand.

Variable Does Not Get The Full Word
I am trying to extract information from mySQL.

Full URL Address In A Variable
I have a website where I invite people to write a review about a product. When a person wants to write a review, I ask him either for LOGIN or REGISTRATION, after successful LOGIN or REGISTRATION, I want him to show the page where he was before the LOGIN or Registration. Let say my URL address looks like this "http://www.anydomainnamexyz.com/directory/hardware/product.php?pid=1&brand=Imate&model=Jam&ram=64" I am confused how to catch the whole URL into a single variable called $page_back, so I can send back the user to the above page after successful LOGIN or REGISTRATION.

Full Proof Arrays
I have a really large system that pulls lot's of stuff from a database. From about 4-5 different queries it runs arrays of data into arrays from the fields. I have a products array on the first one which collects customers, products and other information. As follows [customerid] [customername] [customerid] [products] [productid and information in this array] Basically this is the array setup that is created at first. However when it goes through future database structures new customers might get added entirely (which should add a new customer id and customer details). Or some NEW products might get added(which need to add without having a chance of overwriting current projects. Then again some products might have data that need's to be added to that specific product. Does anyone have a tutorial, tips, tricks on writing "intellegent" arrays?
Displaying Full URL Address From Mysql DB
Hi all I am having a problem, displaying a field form my mysql db. the field is a text varchar(80) containing url's (web addresses more importantly). the issue is, when a user enters into the db an address without the 'http' suffix on the start of the url, I try to display it.. but obviously the browser then renders it as a file to the root directory when actually its an entire new url. Did I explain that good enough?

DB Access Objects VS Full Code
I was wondering if there is any difference in performance between using DB access objects and standard DB access code. Reason I'm asking is I believe each object takes a piece of memory and if I have a site that gets huge traffic and is heavily populated with DB info wont it burn through the server memory rather fast? For example I use this type of structure in a lot of my programs to perform queries on the DB’s. PHP Code:

Readdir Is Not Reading The Full Directory, Why?
I wrote earlier this day about this problem but thought it had something to do with images. However, I found out that for some reason the readdir function is not working properly on my Suse 9.1 server. I can only read a random number of files and directories per folder. When I repeat the command for the same folder I get the same output. If I use the readdir test script on an older machine everything works fine. My server has Suse 9.1 installed with all php modules that come with it. Has anyone had this problem before? I could not fine anything similar on goggle.
Full-text Indexing Of Pdf, Rtf, Txt, Html
I have a big pile of files on my local machine that are in a variety of formats - txt, rtf, pdf, html, etc. What I'm looking for is a script that will crawl through the files and perform simple full-text indexing on them, and will allow for queries to be executed on the index. I gave PHPDig a shot but it prefers web-based setups - my files are all stored locally and will only be accessed locally.
