multi image upload

I am having problems with a multi image upload. I have successfully done it before and can't see the problem. I followed the tutorial - but still no joy. I have created a simple page with a drop down list to get the resortID and a repeated region image file upload - however when I click submit neither the image gets uploaded nor the file name gets added to the database. To test the problem I changed the file field to a text field and that did submit the text into the database fine however when I changed it back to a file field it stopped working again.
This is the top part of my code:
<?php require_once('../Connections/exclusive.php'); ?>
<?php require_once("../WA_DataAssist/WA_AppBuilder_PHP.php"); ?>
<?php require_once("../WA_DigitalFilePro/HelperPHP.php"); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}
}

mysql_select_db($database_exclusive, $exclusive);
$query_resort = "SELECT resortdetails.ID, resortdetails.Resort, resortdetails.Country FROM resortdetails ORDER BY resortdetails.Resort, resortdetails.Country";
$resort = mysql_query($query_resort, $exclusive) or die(mysql_error());

Multi image upload cannot be done in this way.

An image upload behavior must be created for each file field on the page.

Image upload is not supported with the multi insert behavior. It would require a fair bit of hand coding to accomplish.

Ok - I have created 8 file fields with 8 separate image uploads and 8 seperate inserts. These all upload the image and upload the file name to the database. The problem I have is that if a file field is empty a blank record gets inserted into the database. I have tried adding isset($_POST['image1']) at the beginning of each of the insert codes ie.

// WA Application Builder Insert
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && isset($_POST['image1'])) // Trigger
{
$WA_connection = $exclusive;
$WA_table = "resortimages";
$WA_sessionName = "resortimages_resortimagesID";
$WA_redirectURL = "";
$WA_keepQueryString = false;
$WA_indexField = "resortimagesID";
$WA_fieldNamesStr = "resortID|image";
$WA_fieldValuesStr = "".$_SESSION['WADA_Insert_resortdetails'] ."" . "|" . "".$WA_DFP_UploadStatus["WA_UploadResult1"]["serverFileName"] ."";
$WA_columnTypesStr = "none,none,NULL|',none,''";
$WA_fieldNames = explode("|", $WA_fieldNamesStr);
$WA_fieldValues = explode("|", $WA_fieldValuesStr);
$WA_columns = explode("|", $WA_columnTypesStr);
$WA_connectionDB = $database_exclusive;
mysql_select_db($WA_connectionDB, $WA_connection);
if (!session_id()) session_start();
$insertParamsObj = WA_AB_generateInsertParams($WA_fieldNames, $WA_columns, $WA_fieldValues, -1);
$WA_Sql = "INSERT INTO `" . $WA_table . "` (" . $insertParamsObj->WA_tableValues . ") VALUES (" . $insertParamsObj->WA_dbValues . ")";
$MM_editCmd = mysql_query($WA_Sql, $WA_connection) or die(mysql_error());
$_SESSION[$WA_sessionName] = mysql_insert_id();
if ($WA_redirectURL != "") {
if ($WA_keepQueryString && $WA_redirectURL != "" && isset($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]) && $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] !== "" && sizeof($_POST) > 0) {
$WA_redirectURL .= ((strpos($WA_redirectURL, '?') === false)?"?":"&").$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"];
}
header("Location: ".$WA_redirectURL);
}
}
?>

But then nothing gets inserted into the database.

the correct syntax for checking if a file field has a value is:

php:
isset($_FILES['image1']) && $_FILES['image1'] != ""




change the trigger:

php:
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && isset($_POST['image1'])) // Trigger



to:

php:
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && (isset($_FILES['image1']) && $_FILES['image1'] != "") // Trigger

I added:
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && isset($_FILES['image1']) && $_FILES['image1'] != "") // Trigger
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && isset($_FILES['image2']) && $_FILES['image2'] != "") // Trigger
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && isset($_FILES['image3']) && $_FILES['image3'] != "") // Trigger
...etc to each of the inserts- i.e.
<?php
// WA Application Builder Insert
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && isset($_FILES['image1']) && $_FILES['image1'] != "") // Trigger
{
$WA_connection = $exclusive;
$WA_table = "resortimages";
$WA_sessionName = "resortimages_resortimagesID";
$WA_redirectURL = "";
$WA_keepQueryString = false;
$WA_indexField = "resortimagesID";
$WA_fieldNamesStr = "resortID|image";
$WA_fieldValuesStr = "".$_SESSION['WADA_Insert_resortdetails'] ."" . "|" . "".$WA_DFP_UploadStatus["WA_UploadResult1"]["serverFileName"] ."";
$WA_columnTypesStr = "none,none,NULL|',none,''";
$WA_fieldNames = explode("|", $WA_fieldNamesStr);
$WA_fieldValues = explode("|", $WA_fieldValuesStr);
$WA_columns = explode("|", $WA_columnTypesStr);
$WA_connectionDB = $database_exclusive;
mysql_select_db($WA_connectionDB, $WA_connection);
if (!session_id()) session_start();
$insertParamsObj = WA_AB_generateInsertParams($WA_fieldNames, $WA_columns, $WA_fieldValues, -1);
$WA_Sql = "INSERT INTO `" . $WA_table . "` (" . $insertParamsObj->WA_tableValues . ") VALUES (" . $insertParamsObj->WA_dbValues . ")";
$MM_editCmd = mysql_query($WA_Sql, $WA_connection) or die(mysql_error());
$_SESSION[$WA_sessionName] = mysql_insert_id();
if ($WA_redirectURL != "") {
if ($WA_keepQueryString && $WA_redirectURL != "" && isset($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]) && $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] !== "" && sizeof($_POST) > 0) {
$WA_redirectURL .= ((strpos($WA_redirectURL, '?') === false)?"?":"&").$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"];
}
header("Location: ".$WA_redirectURL);
}
}
?>



however they still insert blank entries into the database.

please post a copy of the php page compressed into a zip archive so I can examine the entire code in context.

the code is correct, that will prevent blank entries from being added to the database.

In the body of the page, add todays date and upload it again to make sure the changes are being uploaded to the server correctly. When you load the page in the browser you should the data on the page to indicate that the code changes are making it up to the server before testing.

I have added the date and reuploaded - and it has uploaded the page however it is still inserting empty records into the resortimages table.

I tried removing value="" from each of the file fields (because I added those) <input type="file" name="image8" id="image8" value="" />

But it still uploads empty records.

OK, I see the problem now, the trigger should be:

php:
if (isset($_POST["Insert_x"]) && isset($_FILES['image1']) && $_FILES['image1']['name'] != "") // Trigger
