File Upload used in modules

Client Joined: Oct 07, 2003 Posts: 735 Location: Ohio

Does anybody have some examples for me to study?

I have been looking at this example but it doesn't seem to fit my needs.

At least I can't get it to work.

I want to utilize file upload in a module I am making. The files are images I need uploaded to an images/map directory.

Can you have the form and the upload part of the script on the same page?

I've looked at Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!, but Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! is ranked a little higher.

There are several factors that affect upload, including file size (both in the form settings and in the php.ini settings). You can often restrict by file type, too.

The form and upload can be part of the same php file, but it can't happen without submitting the form unless you use something like AJAX (even then, it's still not really the same form).

Trying this out.

My upload page is named MapUpload.php and is located in the admin directory of my module.

It looks like this.

http://www.eto-league.com/MapUpload.txt

I have a page called uploader.php in the same directory.

http://www.eto-league.com/uploader.txt

Then upload.class.php in the same as well.

http://www.eto-league.com/upload.class.txt

I don't think my <form action= is correct in the MapUpload page. It cannot find uploader.php since I have it pointed to ".$admin_file."

I change it to uploader.php and all I get is a blank page that has the url pointed to : http://www.eto-league.com/uploader.php
