Creating a variable from an image upload form

[catfleamassacre]

I am fairly new to image uploaders (worked in animation for a long time).

I have an image upload form that works fine. The image uploads and redirects to another PHP page (imageupload_file.php) that confirms the image uploaded and gives you the name of the image and size on the server.

By clicking a link you go through to another page (galleryinsert.php) where you can add the image details to, such as page to be shown on, section on the page.

The only thing I cant do is get the image name to echo in the second details page. At the moment I have to copy and paste the name into galleryinsert.php and this is quite messy.

Is there a way I can save the image name as a variable and pass it through to the last form so I dont need to copy/paste it in?

Do you need to see the code?

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know whether this is the best solution, but here it is:

<?php
// Note: this MUST be on the top of the page, without any whitespace whatsoever infront of it
session_start();
?>
<?php
$theimagename = "05-5098-40293050.jpg"; // You have retrieved this from your upload script
$_SESSION['imagename'] = $theimagename;
?>

Then you can retrieve that session variable on the next page:

<?php
// Note: this MUST be on the top of the page, without any whitespace whatsoever infront of it
session_start();
?>
<?php
$theimagename = $_SESSION['imagename'];
echo $theimagename;
?>

yes, you need to show the part of code too.
There you must be having something like -

header("Location:imageupload_file.php");

we just need to ensure that it goes like this -

header("Location:imageupload_file.php?img_name=$img_name");

So $img_name will carry the image name from the current page to the next page, which you can display in the imageupload_file.php as

echo "Image you uploaded: ".$_GET['img_name'];

also write like this.if youwant to redirect only to another page write like this.
in the first page:

<form name="formx" action="nextpage.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input name="image" type="image">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

and in next page at the top of the page mention like this.

<?php
ob_start();
extract($_REQUEST);
echo $_REQUEST['image'];exit;
?>
