Hello,
I am new to Daniweb and am I glad I found it, there is so much helpful information here for a newbie programer.
This is my error message:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CASE or T_DEFAULT or '}' in C:\wamp\www\helen\upload.php on line 17
This is my story:
I am building a database for a realestate agent and it needs to be able to upload images to the database. Being green at this I have had a heck of a time finding tutorials that make sense to me regarding uploading files to the database so this is what I have done, please tell me if there is a better way. I am using PHP and I have an 'add.php' page where you would fill in your information and there is a browse button to browse to your image file,
here is the code for the button,
<td><input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" size="32" />
<input name="userfile" type="file" /></td>I have another page called 'upload.php' that apparently is the page that processes the file information and places it in the database? (I think this is right?)
Here is the code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>uploading</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Uploading file</h1>
<?php
if ($_FILES['userfile']['error'] > 0)
{
echo 'Problem: ';
switch ($_FILES['userfile']['error'])
{
case1: echo 'File exceeded upload_max_filesize'; break; ->THIS IS LINE 17<-
case2: echo 'File exceeded max_filesize'; break;
case3: echo 'File only partially uploaded'; break;
case4: echo 'No file uploaded'; break;
}
exit;
}
if ($_FILES['userfile']['type'] != 'image/gif''image/jpg')
{
echo 'Problem:image must be .gif or .jpg';
exit;
}
$upfile= '/uploads/'.$_FILES['userfile']['name'];
if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']))
if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $upfile))
{
echo 'Problem: Could not move file to destination directory';
exit;
}
}
else
{
echo 'Problem: Possible file upload attack. Filename: ';
echo $_FILES['userfile']['name'];
exit;
}
echo 'File uploaded successfully<br><br>';
$fp = fopen($upfile, 'r');
$contents = fread ($fp, filesize ($upfile));
fclose ($fp);
$contents = strip_tags($contents);
$fp = fopen($upfile, 'w');
fwrite($fp, $contents);
fclose($fp);
echo 'Preview of uploaded images:<br><br>';
echo $contents;
echo '<br><br>';
?>
</body>
</html>I have been reading posts from others that have been having similar problems and it seems that it is usually a spelling error or a semicolon is missing but I can't seem to find the error.
And I am wondering if this is even the right way about uploading images.
Incase it is important the information in the data base for the image field is:
Field:thumb1
Type:mediumblob
Attributes:binary
Null:no
Thanks for your help, I feel like this php sql stuff will never make sense.
Cheers!
