I've been searching for the best way to store images that would be used in a dynamic site. In this situation, a site admin would upload images via a php script. Obviously this creates several problems.
To prevent naming problems, I have php name all the uploaded images and store the name in a mysql db. Then, when needed, php will query to get the name and insert the image name into the image tag. This has always seemed like an incomplete solution because it's hard to manage the files later. Using mySQL to do the whole thing is appealing. I've never tried storing the actual data in my mysql db. It seems like it would be too slow to query, transfer, and passthru. Does anyone have any wisdom on this subject? -- Jim Musil --------- Multimedia Programmer Nettmedia ------------- 212-629-0004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
