Re: [PHP-DB] picture into mysql (file address)

One comment is to be sure the destination folder has write privileges for world.

My typical usage is:

2)  // datafile is field name for image/file upload browser
	$img_dir = "../photos";     // must be 777 access
    if($datafile_name != "") {
        if ($datafile_name != "none") {
            $newFileName = $datafile_name;
            if (!(copy($datafile, "$img_dir/$newFileName"))) {
                $errmsg = "<b>copying $newFileName failed</b><br>";
            } else {
                $errmsg = "<b>copying $newFileName succeeded</b><br>";
            }
        }
    }
