I have written a simple image uploading system to go along with a simple
database. This will be a part of a publiclay accessable search engine for a
jewelry companie's web site. Almost every entry has a corresponding image.
But that was the easy part... The problem now is that I need to display the
images next to the corresponding info on the same page.
I do not know much about UNIX permissions but I am strongly advised to keep
the permission settings on the public-html directory set to 0755 at the very
least. Since the PHP script inhereits user permissions (and not the Owner's
permission) this means that I can not upload the files to the Public-html
directory where I could easily grab them with a URL. The only place I have
access is outside the public html directory. Of couse I can open any number
of images I like and read them to the browser screen... but they can not
mingle with HTML becuase I have to set the header("Content-type:
image/jpeg") in order to display the image in the first place. ARRGGH!
It is forcing me to use frames or a floating window to display the images..
which is absoutely totaly unacceptable. Aside from being a hack solution
there is no way I can align the images with the corresponding database info.
And inline frames are not supported by all browsers.
*sigh*
I am being blocked on all ends and I need a solution fast. Any help will be
**GREATLY** appreciated.
