Dear All,
I am trying to store the location of a image into MySQL database, so
that I can call it back from PHP to display it in a browser. For this
purpose, I have created a table with two columns (BuildingCode,
Location), where building is the primary key and location is the
location where my picture is stored on my PC. My image is stored at
/C:\Users\Sashikanth\Desktop\burruss.jpg/ on my PC.
The following table is an output from MySQL.
+--+-+
| BuildingCode |
Location|
+--+-+
| 176 | c:/users/sashikanth/desktop/burruss.jpg |
+--+-+
Considering my original Image Location on my PC, will the above table be
of any help if I try to retrieve the image using PHP? Is there any
mistake in what I have done till now?
I know that this may be a very basic question and i have searched
through the internet quite extensively but could not find a solid
answer. Would appreciate it greatly if anyone can help.
Thanks,
Sashi

Note that the image needs to be accessible by apache. You may want to
store those images in a folder in or just above the web root and
perhaps create an image upload routine

Hi Bastien,
I did not quite get what you have said. Does it really matter where we
store the image? I mean, we can always retrieve the location and display
it as long as we feed the db with the correct path. And what is meant by
a image upload routine?

Re: [PHP-DB] Storing Image Location in MySQL
Hi JP,
Can you please let me know what is a GD? I have not installed Apache
separately. I am using the WAMP server currently. Do I have to install
any additional stuff before I can retrieve the image location from the
db and display it in my browser?

If you move your app to a new folder, then you have to go through and update all database records to point to the new path. If you store the relative path, you can set a config variable (or work it out yourself), and add the relative path to the end. So in your config: $cfg['folder_name'] = 'c:/apps/my_app_name/'; in the db location will be 'images/image.jpg'; Put the two together to get the full path: $image_path = $cfg['folder_name'] . $db['location']; -- ~ ~ Sashikanth Gurram Graduate Research Assistant Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Virginia Tech Blacksburg, VA 24060, USA -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP-DB] Issue 45979: PHP code attached
This is the page called ~~~ Then you would need to redirect the user to the form page to get the data from the user. Or create an application account that the rest of the application would use. Frankly there is no way that I would ever ask the user for the credentials, if they need different user accounts, I would create each one on the server and allow the application to control what accounts are used. I was suggesting that was the cause of the problem (no post variables). I'd ask a user for the details during an install phase of an app, but that's it. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
