Hi
I am trying to upload to different folders generated in pure php upload2 using a session variable
On first pages sessiontest1.php I have this code:

<?php
session_start();
?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
<?php

 echo "This is a test of the sessions feature.
 <form action='sessionTest2.php' method='POST'>
 <input type='hidden' name='form_var' value ='xxxxxxxxxxs'>
 <input type='submit' value='go to next page' >
 </form> ";
  ?>
</body>
</html>


And on second page sessionTest2.php I have this 


<?php require_once('../ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.php'); ?>
<?php
session_start();
?>



<?php
// Pure PHP Upload 2.1.10
$ppu = new pureFileUpload();
$ppu->path = "galleries/".$_POST['form_var'];
$ppu->extensions = "";
$ppu->formName = "form1";
$ppu->storeType = "file";
$ppu->sizeLimit = "";
$ppu->nameConflict = "over";
$ppu->requireUpload = "true";
$ppu->minWidth = "";
$ppu->minHeight = "";
$ppu->maxWidth = "";
$ppu->maxHeight = "";
$ppu->saveWidth = "";
$ppu->saveHeight = "";
$ppu->timeout = "600";
$ppu->progressBar = "";
$ppu->progressWidth = "300";
$ppu->progressHeight = "100";
$ppu->redirectURL = "";
$ppu->checkVersion("2.1.10");
$ppu->doUpload();

if (isset($editFormAction)) {
  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
      if (!eregi("GP_upload=true", $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
        $editFormAction .= "&GP_upload=true";
        }
  } else {
    $editFormAction .= "?GP_upload=true";
  }
}


?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script language='javascript' src='../ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.js'></script>
</head>

<body>

<form action="<?php echo $GP_uploadAction; ?>" method="post"   enctype="multipart/form-data"  name="form1"  id="form1" onSubmit="checkFileUpload(this,'',true,'','','','','','','');return document.MM_returnValue" >
  
 

  
  
  <fieldset><legend>Use this to upload a photo for everything</legend>
   <p>
      <label  ><strong>Photo</strong></label><br/>
      <input name="pImage"   type="file" class="field" onChange="checkOneFileUpload(this,'',true,'','','','','','','')"    />
  </p>
  </fieldset>
 <div id="buttons">
  
  
  <input type="submit" value="submit">
  &nbsp;&nbsp;
  <input type="reset" value="reset">
</form>
</body>
</html>


This creates the directory xxxxxxxxxxs but doesn't upload the image to it.

But if I have this on sessionTest1.php:

<?php
session_start();
?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
<?php
$_SESSION['session_var'] = "testing2";
 echo "This is a test of the sessions feature.
 <form action='sessionTest2.php' method='POST'>
 <input type='hidden' name='form_var' value ='xxxxxxxxxxs'>
 <input type='submit' value='go to next page' >
 </form> ";
  ?>
</body>
</html>



And this on sessionTest2.php

<?php require_once('../ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.php'); ?>
<?php
session_start();
?>



<?php
// Pure PHP Upload 2.1.10
$ppu = new pureFileUpload();
$ppu->path = "galleries/".$_SESSION['session_var'];
$ppu->extensions = "";
$ppu->formName = "form1";
$ppu->storeType = "file";
$ppu->sizeLimit = "";
$ppu->nameConflict = "over";
$ppu->requireUpload = "true";
$ppu->minWidth = "";
$ppu->minHeight = "";
$ppu->maxWidth = "";
$ppu->maxHeight = "";
$ppu->saveWidth = "";
$ppu->saveHeight = "";
$ppu->timeout = "600";
$ppu->progressBar = "";
$ppu->progressWidth = "300";
$ppu->progressHeight = "100";
$ppu->redirectURL = "";
$ppu->checkVersion("2.1.10");
$ppu->doUpload();

if (isset($editFormAction)) {
  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
      if (!eregi("GP_upload=true", $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
        $editFormAction .= "&GP_upload=true";
        }
  } else {
    $editFormAction .= "?GP_upload=true";
  }
}


?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script language='javascript' src='../ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.js'></script>
</head>

<body>

<form action="<?php echo $GP_uploadAction; ?>" method="post"   enctype="multipart/form-data"  name="form1"  id="form1" onSubmit="checkFileUpload(this,'',true,'','','','','','','');return document.MM_returnValue" >
  
 

  
  
  <fieldset><legend>Use this to upload a photo for everything</legend>
   <p>
      <label  ><strong>Photo</strong></label><br/>
      <input name="pImage"   type="file" class="field" onChange="checkOneFileUpload(this,'',true,'','','','','','','')"    />
  </p>
  </fieldset>
 <div id="buttons">
  
  
  <input type="submit" value="submit">
  &nbsp;&nbsp;
  <input type="reset" value="reset">
</form>
</body>
</html>


It works, creates the directory and uploads the image

So how can I get it to work How do I make this "testing2" bit dynamic Or how do I get form_var to create the directory and upload the file?

<?php $_SESSION['session_var'] = "testing2";
 echo "This is a test of the sessions feature.
 <form action='sessionTest2.php' method='POST'>
 <input type='hidden' name='form_var' value ='xxxxxxxxxxs'>
 <input type='submit' value='go to next page' >
 </form> ";
  ?>

Thanks
Phil

Hello Phil,

Try messing the both examples.
Use first page from first example to post the form and on second page define your session variable BEFORE ppu code and assign to it the post from the form. Then use the session variable inside the PPU code.

I tried to define the session variable

'on second page define your session variable BEFORE ppu code and assign to it the post from the form. Then use the session variable inside the PPU code. '
But unfortunately I couldn't do it:
Here is what I had on page1:

<?php
session_start();
?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

 <form action='sessionTest2.php' method='POST'>
 <input type='hidden' name='form_var' value ='xxxxxxxxx'>
 <input type='submit' value='go to next page' >
 </form> ";
  ?>
</body>
</html>


Here is what I put on page2 to try and define the session variable:

<?php require_once('../ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.php'); ?>
<?php
session_start();
session_register ("form_var");	
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS ["form_var"] = $form_var;	

?>



<?php

$ppu = new pureFileUpload();
$ppu->path = "galleries/".$_SESSION['form_var'];

$ppu->formName = "form1";

$ppu->progressHeight = "100";
$ppu->redirectURL = "";

  } else {
    $editFormAction .= "?GP_upload=true";
  }

This version didn't even create the folder and I got the error message:
Notice: Undefined variable: form_var in C:\HostingSpaces\RW\rochellewithell.co.nz\wwwroot\cms\sessionTest2.php on line 5

Hope you can point me in the right direction
Thanks
Phil

Hello Phil,

Use :

$_SESSION["form_var"] = $_POST["form_var"];


instead of :

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS ["form_var"] = $form_var;

Hello Phil,

I'm sorry for the delay.
So you can have that folder passed but you need to add a bit of a check because otherwise the variable will be overwritten, like follows...
