I have this basic script that I am trying to work with. It works fine on my local machine. But when I upload itto my server it doesnt work. It consists of two pages. the upload page and an include. here is the upload form <!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>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <?php include('http://www.myserver.com/vhtest/includes/test4.php'); ?> <form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="form1" id="form1"> <input name="image" type="file" id="image" /> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" /> </form> </body> </html> HTML: here is the include <?php if($_POST){ $img = $_FILES['image']['tmp_name']; //$percent = $_GET['percent']; $constrain = 1; $w = 500; $h = 380; // get image size of img $x = @getimagesize($img); // image width $sw = $x[0]; // image height $sh = $x[1]; if ($percent > 0) { // calculate resized height and width if percent is defined $percent = $percent * 0.01; $w = $sw * $percent; $h = $sh * $percent; } else { if (isset ($w) AND !isset ($h)) { // autocompute height if only width is set $h = (100 / ($sw / $w)) * .01; $h = @round ($sh * $h); } elseif (isset ($h) AND !isset ($w)) { // autocompute width if only height is set $w = (100 / ($sh / $h)) * .01; $w = @round ($sw * $w); } elseif (isset ($h) AND isset ($w) AND isset ($constrain)) { // get the smaller resulting image dimension if both height // and width are set and $constrain is also set $hx = (100 / ($sw / $w)) * .01; $hx = @round ($sh * $hx); $wx = (100 / ($sh / $h)) * .01; $wx = @round ($sw * $wx); if ($hx < $h) { $h = (100 / ($sw / $w)) * .01; $h = @round ($sh * $h); } else { $w = (100 / ($sh / $h)) * .01; $w = @round ($sw * $w); } } } $im = @ImageCreateFromJPEG ($img) or // Read JPEG Image $im = @ImageCreateFromPNG ($img) or // or PNG Image $im = @ImageCreateFromGIF ($img) or // or GIF Image $im = false; // If image is not JPEG, PNG, or GIF if (!$im) { // We get errors from PHP's ImageCreate functions... // So let's echo back the contents of the actual image. readfile ($img); } else { // Create the resized image destination $thumb = @ImageCreateTrueColor ($w, $h); // Copy from image source, resize it, and paste to image destination @ImageCopyResampled ($thumb, $im, 0, 0, 0, 0, $w, $h, $sw, $sh); // Output resized image $filename = "../vhtest/upload/jim/2/". $_FILES['image']['name']; imagejpeg($thumb,$filename,100); } } ?> PHP: my local machine has php 5. my server has php 4.4 first question is there something in the include that doesnt work for php4.4? I looked up almost every function and they were all supported. And by the way the folder that I am trying to write to are all chmod 777. the second question is does it need a absolute path or can it use a relative path? on my local machine it works with a relative path. I have tried changing the path to include 1 a relative path ie "../vhtest/upload/jim/2/". $_FILES['image']['name']; 2 the full path to the folder ie /home/usr/vhtest/upload/ etc 3 an http path ie htttp://www.myserver.com.vhtest/upload etc none of them seem to work. I had this in a much more complicated page where I have multiple upload and mysql insert. I thought there might be someproblem in there so I built this simple form to test it out. Once again everything works on my local machine but not on the server. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
i fixed the problem by including the code on the page instead of using the include. go figure what the problem was. i wasted a whole day on this. I thought I was makingmy life easier by using includes. Go figure. I am sure I was just using the wrong path or something. Oh well works like a champ now
