I have two pages one called upload-file.php, this page uploads the image into the database and my folder.

My PHP page looks like this.

 if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadfile']['tmp_name'], $file))
{
$insert=mysql_query("insert into match_item_image set item_id='".$_SESSION["session_temp"]."', image='".$name."', adid='$adid'") or die(mysql_error());
$cc=mysql_insert_id();
echo "success".$cc; 

My other page consist of a javascript function which displays my images upon upload.
The problem I am having is that I need to change the image name when uploading it into my folder. I was able to change the image name but when I upload the image it displays blank because the JavaScript function Is looking for the original name of the image, when the users uploads the file.

This is part of the function:

$(function()
{
var btnUpload=$('#upload');
var status=$('#status');
new AjaxUpload(btnUpload, {
action: 'upload-file.php',
name: 'uploadfile',
onSubmit: function(file, ext)
{
if (! (ext && /^(jpg|png|jpeg|gif)$/.test(ext))){
// extension is not allowed
status.text('Only JPG, PNG or GIF files are allowed');
return false;
}status.text('Uploading...');
},
onComplete: function(file, response)
{
//On completion clear the status
status.text('');
//Add uploaded file to list
var bb=response.substr(0,7)
var idd=response.replace('success',' ');
var idb =idd.replace(/^\s*|\s*$/g,'');
if(bb==="success")
{
$('<span id='+idd+'></span>').appendTo('#files').html('<img src="upload/+file+" alt="" width="290" height="330" class="image1" /><br><a href="javascript:void(0)" onClick="deleteFile('+idd+');" class="image1" > <span style="font-weight:bold; font-size:14px; color:red;" > Delete </span></a>').addClass('success');
}
else
{
$('<span></span>').appendTo('#files').text(response).addClass('error');
}

Please let me know if anyone can help.

I am new to javascript.

I didn't work with Ajax. But I still can help you with the logic. Store the name of an image in a variable and pass it to the function just to make the function use the new name if the old one has been changed.

I hope this helps a little.
