 Subject: [PHP] preview function with upload 
 
 
 Hi,
 
 Does anyone know how to implement a preview function.  
 That preview function is work after selecting the specific 
 picture to upload in php upload function, when people click 
 the preview function, the the selected upload product will 
 show up on the screen.  Hope, I am clear enough.
 
 Thank you
 
 Mark


Yes.  What you do after they have Browsed (using the appropriate form
functions), you simply capture the actual Client side Machine path of
the image they want to upload, and set that as the Img tags SRC value.
For example:

img src=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.GENRIC\My Documents\My
Pictures\Sample.jpg

This will display the image to the person.  While I have not tested it
out on various browsers, I know it works in IE, and don't see any reason
why it wouldn't work on other browsers.  After this, they simply click
agree, and the normal file uploading procedure goes from there.

Do you capture the actual Client side Machine path before they hit the
submit button or after?

If before, I'm guessing you use javascript.

If after, I have no guess.  I didn't think that information was passed with
the POST.

kind regards,
