i'm trying to save an image uploaded with a HTML form on my localhost server (working with Xampp), but although there are no errors, the file isn't saved anywhere. This is the form, really simple:
<form id="form1" action="result.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Select image to upload:
<input type="file" name="imguploaded" id="imguploaded" accept=".png, .jpg, .jpeg"></br>
<input class="btn btn-outline-danger btn-lg" id="inputbtn" type="submit" value="Upload Image" name="submit">
</form>
and this is the PHP code (on result.php):
<?php
$result=false;
$error=false;
if (isset($_FILES['imguploaded'])){
$nomefile = strtolower($_FILES['imguploaded']['name']);
$path = "caricamenti/$nomefile";
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['imguploaded']['name'], $path);
echo($path);
}
?>
the path exists and it is in the same folder of the .PHP files.
In move_uploaded_file($_FILES['imguploaded']['name'], $path); the first parameter isn't correct. It should be the temporary path where php stored it intermediatly, which you find in $_FILE['imguploaded']['tmp_name']. So change that line to
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['imguploaded']['tmp_name'], $path);
relevant docs
Be sure to:
Right now I could easily upload a php script and execute that.
Try this:
$file_name= $_FILES['imguploaded']['name'];
$file_tmp_name= $_FILES['imguploaded']['tmp_name'];
$div= explode('.',$file_name );
$file_txt= strtolower(end($div));
$unique_image= substr(md5(time()),0,10).".".$file_txt;
$uploaded_image= "caricamenti/".$unique_image;
move_uploaded_file($file_tmp_name,$uploaded_image);
