hi to all,
i m new to php and trying to upload, save, and display image from mySQL using php, i have a domain online and working by uploading page again and again after changing on it, it has also cPanel.
i have got extenssion of image but now i dont know, where does the server store real (physically) image on server ??
some one has told mn that, the image uploaded by user stores in temp folder with .tmp extenssion, we have to get image from them and rename it with adding extenssion which we got first, then it will have to copy into database.
please tell me, where the tmp folder is located ?? how can i use its path in my php.
best regards:
meji

Re: how to find the path of temp folder, used to store image
Images need to be stored in the public HTML directory for them to be accessible. That is the same directory that your PHP scripts are in. Usually people put images in a 'images' directory. So when you upload, you would put everything in the public HTML directory.
Users uploading with HTTP is a different thing. You should use the move_uploaded_file() function. That function verifies that the file is actually an uploaded file.
