You cannot open a remote file by using it's directory path on the remote system. The two ways to do this would be to a) (recommended) open it with a URL, thus the 'client' computer would need to be running a web server, or b) mount the remote drive as a share on the *nix box, and access the file thru the share. http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php The addslashes was part of the original sample script. It was probably made for text to be entered in a db, and in that case (if you are using MySQL), the function mysql_escape_string() would be a better choice... http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-escape-string.php The storage would only be temporary, I intend to make it so when the file is viewed, there will be an option to delete it. The binary images would only reside in the DB for 2-4 weeks tops. Most seem to think (including myself) that it is better to store binary files in the file system, and put the text url/path to them in the db. As for your suggestion to modify the script to meet my needs, that is what I am trying to do... Thanks for the assistance Look in the manual for explanations of the functions you're trying to use. Copying an example will rarely do what YOU need/want it to do, and you'll have a better understanding how to modify it by reading how the individual functions work. -Original Message- From: John Nichel [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Please don't reply directly to me (or anyone else on the list) unless asked to do so.

[PHP] fopen errors
I have a PHP front end with a MySQL back end with a longblob field. I am thinking the problem exists in the PHP part. Here is the code I am using: $fileHandle = fopen($fileUpload, r); $fileContent = fread($fileHandle, $fileUpload_size); $fileContent = addslashes($fileContent); Then it goes into the Db connection part. When I run the script I get the following error: Warning: fopen(C:\\0-temp\\100_0078.jpg, r) -No such file or directory in /var/www/testbed/httpdocs/blob/grabfile.php on line 41 Warning Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in /var/www/testbed/httpdocs/blob/grabfile.php on line 45 Then only thing that really jumps out at me in the file source path of C:\\0-temp\\100_0078.jpg there is a couple of extra Backslashes (\) in the path statement. I am using a sample script that pulled from one of the websites. Thanks in Advance, Jess -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Warning Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in /var/www/testbed/httpdocs/blob/grabfile.php on line 45 Direct result of the first error. Then only thing that really jumps out at me in the file source path of C:\\0-temp\\100_0078.jpg there is a couple of extra Backslashes (\) in the path statement. This really should be quite obvious. First, looks as if your script is running on a *nix box, yet you're trying to open a file using a Windoze directory structure. I'm going to say that this won't work. Two, it looks as if you're trying to read in an image...binary file...to enter it into a blob field in MySQL, so why are you going to 'addslashes()' to it? Third.well, I won't open that can of worms about storing your images in the DB I am using a sample script that pulled from one of the websites. You need to modify the script to fit your environment. -- By-Tor.com It's all about the Rush http://www.by-tor.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Fopen errors out when opening a URL
I am trying to do a simple fopen(http://www.weather.com/index.html;, r); For some reason I cannot Open any URL's after trying several. I get the following error Warning: stat failed for Resource id #1 (errno=2 - No such file or directory) I checked my php.ini to make sure I set the fopen wrappers and they are set. Any help would be appreciated.

Warning: stat failed for Resource id #1 (errno=2 - No such file or directory) If you're getting a resource id, your fopen() worked fine. The failure is on some other line in your code. You need to pin down exactly which line it is. --Dan -- PHP classes that make web design easier SQL Solution | Layout Solution | Form Solution sqlsolution.info | layoutsolution.info | formsolution.info T H E A N A L Y S I S A N D S O L U T I O N S C O M P A N Y 4015 7 Av #4AJ, Brooklyn NY v: 718-854-0335 f: 718-854-0409 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
