Hello. I need help with my uploading a file form. I followed the tutorial to the t, and it is not working.
What i need is to receive an uploaded picture from a customer and then forward them to the shopping cart to pay for their order. So i have created the error page and thank-you page (which is actually where they can then click to go on to the shopping cart). I have created other forms successfully, and I am stumped!
Can somebody please help me.
My site is jackandaddy.com and the page is under Book nameplates. If you scroll down to the bottom, it is the last form. I actually receive the info in my email but I cannot use the link to accesspicture and the customer only receives an error message, that says
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home2/posh/public_html/uploadaction.php:11) in /home2/posh/public_html/uploadaction.php on line 56.
I did not change the upload action script except where indicated.
PLEASE HELP!
Samantha

Hello, thanks, I really appreciate the help!
The code is as follows:


<?php
// Receiving variables
@$email = addslashes($_POST['email']);
@$upload_Name = $_FILES['upload']['name'];
@$upload_Size = $_FILES['upload']['size'];
@$upload_Temp = $_FILES['upload']['tmp_name'];

// Validation for max file size
if ($upload_Size>0)
{
if( $upload_Size >1000000)
{
//delete file
unlink($upload_Temp);
header("Location: error.html");
exit;
}
$uploadFile = "uploads/".$upload_Name ;
@move_uploaded_file( $upload_Temp , $uploadFile);
chmod($uploadFile, 0644);
$upload_URL = "<A href="http://www.jackandaddy.com/uploads/".$upload_Name">http://www.jackandaddy.com/uploads/".$upload_Name ;
}
//Sending Email to form owner
$mailto = "photoupload@jackandaddy.com";
$mailsubj = "Photo Upload Submission";
$mailhead = "From: $email\n";
reset ($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody = "Bookplate photo submission :\n";
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
if ($key!="submit")
{
$mailbody .= "$key : $val\n";
}
}
$mailbody .= "upload: $upload_URL\n";
mail($mailto, $mailsubj, $mailbody, $mailhead);
header("Location: thankyou_page.html");
?>

And I created the uploadaction.php page an error page and a thank-you page which directs you to my shopping cart.

I hope this helps.

Re: Newbie

Oh, and Andy as I mentioned earlier I do receive all of the information from the form in my email photoupload@jackandaddy.com.
However, I do not seem to be able to open the picture that is sent. It is sent with a link upload: http://www.jackandaddy.com/uploads/3monthsweb.jpg but when I click the link I get

404 ERROR- Page can not be displayed or found.

I am confused!

Re: Newbie

Well- you have;

$upload_URL = "<A href="http://www.jackandaddy.com/uploads/".$upload_Name">http://www.jackandaddy.com/uploads/".$upload_Name ;

While the instructions that you followed for the upload have;

$upload_URL = "http://www.yourdomain.com/uploads/".$upload_Name ;

Uploads are not my strong point- but perhaps this might be worth changing.

Additionally- have you changed the CHMOD settings of the "uploads" folder to 777?

Re: Newbie

The page not found error occurs probably because the file name contains blank spaces or symbols, that break the link. Just copy the ENTIRE link, underlined and not underlined part, in your browser address bar, and it will work ok.

Now, as for the main part: i have tested your form and it is working ok. So i suppose that you have corrected the mistake. Did you initially upload the "uploadaction.php" script , pasting it in the "Inside Body" of a BV page ? This is a method used for a simple form, but in the case of the upload file script, it needs to be uploaded on the server on it's own. It can be done also the other way, but it should be modified.
