Ok here is my story. I have this PHP script that uses a file system and when a person comes to one
of my pages, they click the Browse button, click Submit, and get redirected to another page after
they have gotten validated for uploading a JPG or Word document.
Here is my thing.. I have it setup so when a person submits it and gets redirected, it automatically
sends me an email with their IP address and so on.
For reference, on my Upload page I have this for my form information where I have userfile as the
PHP function I will be using in the fileupload.php page:
<form method="post" action="fileupload.php"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000">
<p><input type="file" name="userfile"
value="Browse"></p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit"
name="Submit"></form>
After that gets run and runs the following PHP script, it adds the image to the /upload/ folder and
sends me an email. My big problem is in the actual email is having the name of the $userfile show up
in the email.
For example, I have global $userfile near the top of my script and for my email, I have a $message
command that gets outputed in the recievers email.
For one of my $message variables, I have this which of course I currently have $userfile in the
script:
$message .= "The URL of the new file is: \n$docroot/files/$userfile\n\n";
But even with this, the end of the URL of the email shows up blank (ex: www.mysite.com/files/)
leaving me in the dust by not including the filename like 01.jpg. Of course, my ideal email would
have the output say like www.mysite.com/files01.jpg.
Does any of you know of any solutions to this? I can send source if needed.
Thanks!
