I figured it out...
You can put everything in one file...
<form name="form1" method="post" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="imagefile" size="20">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
<?
if(isset( $Submit ))
{
if ($_FILES['imagefile']['type'] == "image/pjpeg"){
$extension=".jpg";
// define the base image dir
$base_img_dir = "images/";
// generate unique id for use in filename
$uniq = uniqid("");
// new file name
$filename = $base_img_dir.$uniq.$extension;
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["imagefile"]["tmp_name"], $filename)
or die ("Could not copy");
echo "";
echo "Name: ".$_FILES['imagefile']['name']."";
echo "Size: ".$_FILES['imagefile']['size']."";
echo "Type: ".$_FILES['imagefile']['type']."";
echo "Copy Done....";
}
else {
echo "";
echo "Could Not Copy, Wrong Filetype
(".$_FILES['imagefile']['name'].")";
}
}
....
and then whatever else you want it to do (be sure to include connecter to
MySQL database). thanks to everyone who helped, especially
