[PHP] file uploads
Hi,
I have a file upload problem, but I don't think it's a permission thing
(if only, that would be simple!).
I have written a resizing method for a class I'm working on, and it
always fails on the imageJpeg() at the end of the method. This is the
error I get...
imagejpeg(): Unable to open
'/Library/WebServer/Documents/my_site/_lib/_products/2_big_me.jpg' for
writing in
/Library/WebServer/Documents/my_site/_lib/_classes/class.products.php
on line 132
Now, here's the strange bit, if I call my method and just use
move_uploaded_file() then the image is saved correctly, so I know it's
not the permissions, could someone have a little look at my method and
let me know if there's anything wrong with it please
// $ID is an integer used for naming purposes
// $aImage is an array, it's basically a copy of $_FILES["image"]
// BASE_DIR is a constant var and holds, yep you guessed it, the base
dir of the site!
// IMGMAXHEIGHT & IMGMAXWIDTH are also constants used for resizing
purposes
function storeBigImage($ID, $aImage){
// create filenames
fopen($aImage['name'], 'r');
$aNewImage['real_name'] = $aImage['name'];
$aNewImage['new_name'] = $ID . '_' . 'big' . '_' .
$aNewImage['real_name'];
$aNewImage['image_loc'] = BASE_DIR . '_lib/_products/'
. $aNewImage['new_name'];
// copy original image
$aNewImage['original_image'] =
ImageCreateFromJpeg($aImage['tmp_name']);
$aNewImage['sizes'] = getimagesize($aImage['tmp_name']);
$aNewImage['width'] = $aNewImage['sizes'][0];
$aNewImage['height'] = $aNewImage['sizes'][0];
if($aNewImage['width'] >= IMGMAXWIDTH || $aNewImage['height']
>= IMGMAXHEIGHT){
// calculate ratios
$iRatio_w = IMGMAXWIDTH / $aNewImage['width'];
$iRatio_h = IMGMAXHEIGHT / $aNewImage['height'];
$iRatio = $iRatio_w < $iRatio_h ? $iRatio_w:$iRatio_h;
// calculate new dimensions
$aNewImage['new_width'] = $aNewImage['width'] * $iRatio;
$aNewImage['new_height'] = $aNewImage['height'] * $iRatio;
// save resized image
$aNewImage['new_image'] =
ImageCreateTrueColor($aNewImage['new_width'],
$aNewImage['new_height']);
ImageCopyResized($aNewImage['new_image'],
ImageCreateFromJpeg($aImage['tmp_name']), 0, 0, 0, 0,
$aNewImage['new_width'], $aNewImage['new_height'], $aNewImage['width'],
$aNewImage['height']);
//ImageJpeg($aNewImage['new_image'],
$aNewImage['image_loc']);
ImageJpeg($aNewImage['original_image'],
$aNewImage['image_loc']);
} else {
// save original image
//ImageJpeg($aImage['tmp_name'], $aNewImage['image_loc']);
ImageJpeg($aNewImage['original_image'],
$aNewImage['image_loc']);
//ImageJpeg($this->aArgs['Image']['tmp_name'],
$aNewImage['image_loc']);
}
}
I have ftp'd into my local server and the folder in question is set at
777, and like I said it works fine if I don't use this class
Any ideas ??
Thanks,
Jon

Re: [PHP] file uploads
Just to clarify about using move_uploaded_file()
I call the storeBigImage methid from aother method like so
function addProduct(){
$this->storeBigImage($ID, $_FILES["image"]);
}
that doesn't work, if I use this:
function addProduct(){
// Move the uploaded file to the correct location
move_uploaded_file($$_FILES["image"]["tmp_name"],
BASE_DIR."/_img/_products/".$iProductId."_".$fileName);
}
The above works fine, which I find very strange indeed!
Thanks,
Jon

Re: [PHP] file uploads
Hi Chris, I think you're referring to this: $_FILES["image"]["tmp_name"] In my class I pass this as a reference: $aArgs['Image'] = $_FILES["image"]; Then, $aImage in my storeBigImage() method is passed the $aArgs['Image'] when it's called: $this->storeBigImage($productID, $aArgs['Image']); All the image details are there because otherwise functions like getimagesize would fail, it just won't save the resized or, if the dimensions of the uploaded image aren't bigger than my max width and height, original image, and I really have no idea why!!

Re: [PHP] file uploads
Ok, I've got it sorted now, but I'm buggered as to why this didn't work the way I hoped. It seems that if I use an indexed or associative array to store the location and new image file name, imagejpeg never works, but if I use a normal var it does !! what's with that! // doesn't work $aNewImage['image_loc'] = $aNewImage['image_dir'] . $aNewImage['new_name']; // does work!! $sImageLoc = '/Library/Webserver/Documents/wrox_site/_img/_products/' . $aNewImage['new_name']; Why oh why is that the case ???

Just noticed one thing... maybe it's just a typo, but directory, where
You save uploaded image isn't the same in those examples.
In "move_uploaded_file()" it contains "_img/...", but in
"storeBigImage()" there is "_lib/...". And therefore first case is
working and second isn't.

Re: [PHP] file uploads
I'm trying to return a value if the file uploads correctly, using
return, but I don't seem to be getting anything back.
I've added this to my storeImages method
return = $aNewImage['new_name'];
and when I call the method from my addProduct() method I use this:
$sThumbnailFileName = $this->_storeImages($iProductId,
$aArgs["Image"], 'thumb');
I then assumed I'd be able to just reference the $sThumbnailFileName
var so I can insert the filename into the db, but it always goes in
blank, does $sThumbnailFileName not get returned
$aNewImage['new_name'], or is it stuck in an array or something ??

sorry, made a mistake when writing my email:

should be:

Re: [PHP] file uploads
Hi,
I'm working on a class and when a user submits a form to add a new
product, I'm calling the addProduct method and within that method I
call another method of the class 3 times. Once for a thumbnail image,
once for a preview image and once for the full image, is this
considered the correct approach ???
function myMethod (){
myOtherFunc("full");
myOtherFunc("preview");
myOtherFunc("thumb);
}
Id that the best way to write it ?? It would appear to only have 1
method running at any one time, so making them work in succession would
be the obvious answer:
function myMethod (){
if(myOtherFunc("full")){
if(myOtherFunc("preview")){
if(myOtherFunc("thumb)){
echo "all methods returned true!";
} else {
echo "last method returned false!";
}
} else {
echo "2nd method returned false!";
}
} else {
echo "1st method returned false!";
}
}
Is there not a better way of handling this function chain (for want of
a better word) ???
Thanks,
Jon

I'm trying to return a value if the file uploads correctly, using

I've added this to my storeImages method
return = $aNewImage['new_name'];
and when I call the method from my addProduct() method I use this:
$sThumbnailFileName = $this->_storeImages($iProductId,
$aArgs["Image"], 'thumb');
I then assumed I'd be able to just reference the $sThumbnailFileName
var so I can insert the filename into the db, but it always goes in
blank, does $sThumbnailFileName not get returned
$aNewImage['new_name'], or is it stuck in an array or something ??

Just noticed one thing... maybe it's just a typo, but directory,
where You save uploaded image isn't the same in those examples.
In "move_uploaded_file()" it contains "_img/...", but in
"storeBigImage()" there is "_lib/...". And therefore first case is
working and second isn't.

Not much choice then - you have to present them an interface to all of the products for them to select from. Alphabetical sorting perhaps, with a small search field so they can search on product title perhaps, or filter out specific categories. You can't have them in a drop-down (well, technically you could, but this isn't a PHP issue anymore, it's a user-interface one). -- Best regards, Richardmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] convert date from UK to US for strtotime
Hi,
I'm trying to re-work this code from the php site
<http://uk.php.net/strtotime> so that my users can input dates in UK
format (dd-mm-) and still use strtotime.
// from http://uk.php.net/strtotime
$date=explode("/",trim($records[2]));
$posted=strtotime ($date[1]."/".$date[0]."/".$date[2]);
so far I've got:
// converts a UK date (DD-MM-YYY) to a US date (MM-DD-) so
strtotime doesn't fail
function convertDate ($sDate) {
$aDate = explode("/",trim($sDate[2]));
$return = strtotime ($aDate[1]."/".$aDate[0]."/".$aDate[2]);
return $return;
}
But this always fails, any idea why ??
What I really need is to re-order the string that a user inputs, say,
21/04/2004, so that it becomes 04/21/2004 so I can use strtotime.
Cheers,
Jon

[PHP] best paractice example page creation php / mysql
Hi, One of the sections in the site I'm developing is a training section. Within this section there are sub sections which each need the option of having multiple examples added. Each example will be made up of 2 sections a UL list and a 2 column table with a title and intro as well. The way I was thinking of doing this was to have 3 tables: training_subsections training_list_items training_table_items Then once a training sub section has been added into the system they can then add example pages. With this current setup I was thinking I'd ask the user how many list items and how many table items they want for this item (I will add the option to add more at a later date if nessecary) and then build the form on the fly from these 2 figures. My problem is, is it a 'reccomended' way of doing things to query the db multiple times for each new list_item and table_item in one go ??? I could just have an examples table with say 10 list_item columns and 10 x 2 table columns but that seems like a short cut really and leaves no room for scaleability. Any thoughts ??

Re: [PHP] best paractice example page creation php / mysql
Ahh, i was originally thinking of having a examples table, but when
writing the post I decided it might not be nessecary :-)
ok, that bit I understand fine, it's getting the data into the DB first
that's bugging me, would something like this be ok ?
function addNews($aArgs, $aListItems, $aTableItems) {
// create example record
$sql = "INSERT INTO _training_examples (
training_id,
status,
created_dt,
modified_dt
) values (
".$this->$_iTrainingId.",
1,
NOW(),
NOW()
)";
if (DB::isError($rsTmp = $this->_oConn->query($sql))) {
catchExc($rsTmp->getMessage());
return false;
} else {
/ Use MySQL's LAST_INSERT_ID() method to query for the
insert id
$sql = "SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()";
// Check for DB class exceptions
if (DB::isError($iExampleId = $this->_oConn->getOne($sql)))
{
// Report exceptions if present
catchExc($iExampleId->getMessage());
// Unset the product id
unset($iExampleId);
}
$i = 0;
while (count($aListItems)){
// add multiple records to db for list_items
$sql = "INSERT INTO _training_list_items (
training_id,
example_id,
listitem,
status,
created_dt,
modified_dt
) values (
".$this->$_iTrainingId.",
".$iExampleId.",
".$aListItems[$i]['List Item Text'].",
1,
NOW(),
NOW()
)";
$i++
}
And then repeat the 2 while loop for the table_items table.
Is it ok to have INSERT statements enclosed in a while loop ???

There is no reason why you can't, but I'm quite convinced that with a
little more fore-thought you could come up with a table structure that
meant you didn't have to do this.
For example (if I've understood your post correctly) why not have a
training_examples table and then use an ExampleID for the subsections,
list items and table items.
That way you know which example you're dealing with and can bring back
all of the sub sections accordingly, linking in the list and table
items.
If this isn't possible, post a few more details about what you want to
achieve and perhaps your table schema.

Is there a way I can force PHP's time functions not to read date

in the American MM-DD- format?
I am using strtotime and strftime and date at various points (mainlty
to
avoid some niggly 0/NULL problems between PHP and mySQL
and datefields).
My date calculations (which are done in mySQL) are coming out with
screwy results: adding 6 months the 3rd July becomes 7th September.
("03/07/2004" reads as 7th March, add six months for 7th September
which is then displayed as "07/09/2003").
Is there a way I can have strtotime read "10-01-2004" (and all other
such
date connotations) as the 10th Jan and not 1st Oct?
Thanks.

[PHP] dynamic array creation from form elements
Hi,
I've got a dynamically generated form and once it's submitted I need to
_push the data from my form elements into an array so I can ad them to
the db. My form elements are created like so:
$i = 1;
while ($i <= $iListItems){
?>
List Item :
++$i;
?>
And after the form is submitted I assumed I could do this...
$aListItems = array();
$i = 1;
while ($i <= $iListItems) {
$tempItem = $_POST["listItem" . $i];
array_push($aListItems, $tempItem);
++$i;
}
print_r ($aListItems);
but nothing appears to be added to the db, how can I access the $_POST
vars within a loop ??
Thanks,
Jon

Re: [PHP] dynamic array creation from form elements
Hi Rich,
$iListItems is set when a user chooses how many list elements they
require (this is for the example pages I was asking about) and is
always greater than 0 (we don't get this far in the script if it's
not!).
Anyway, it was my silly fault, I had changed the name of my form
elements whilst trying to fix it but hadn't gone back to the very
begining in my browser so my loop was looking for the wrong post names!
Doh!
Thanks,
Jon

I can't see the whole script, so this is just guess work - but your
loop is checking to see if $i (1) is less than $iListItems, but as far
as I can see this isn't defined anywhere in your code, so the loop
will never actually go through because it's saying 1 <= 0.
Where is $iListItems set and to what value?
Your loop will work, but it's not obvious it's getting the chance to.
Also you don't need to array_push it, you could just do:
$aListItems[] = $tempItem;

List Item :
Why don't you just skip the whole "$i" counter thing and name your
input elements as "listItem[]" ? Name every one of them that; the same
thing. Now when you submit your form, you'll already have an array,
$_POST['listItem']. $_POST['listItem'][0] will be what was in the
first one, $_POST['listItem'][1] in the second, etc.

Re: [PHP] Re: Flash-PHP Socket Connection
