How To Upload Files into Database?
To store uploaded files to MySQL database, you can use the normal SELECT statement as shown in the modified processing_uploaded_files.php listed below:
<?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost", "", "");
mysql_select_db("fyi");
$error = $_FILES['fyicenter_logo']['error'];
$tmp_name = $_FILES['fyicenter_logo']['tmp_name'];
$size = $_FILES['fyicenter_logo']['size'];
$name = $_FILES['fyicenter_logo']['name'];
$type = $_FILES['fyicenter_logo']['type'];
print("
\n");
if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK && $size > 0) {
$fp = fopen($tmp_name, 'r');
$content = fread($fp, $size);
fclose($fp);
$content = addslashes($content);
$sql = "INSERT INTO fyi_files (name, type, size, content)"
. " VALUES ('$name', '$type', $size, '$content')";
mysql_query($sql, $con);
print("File stored.\n");
} else {
print("Upload faield.\n");
}
print("
\n");
mysql_close($con);
?>
Note that addslashes() is used to add backslashes to special characters that need to be protected in SQL statements.
