Adding a photo - if one already exits in another record

Adding a photo - if one already exits in another record

Dear Jason,
Question 1
A while back you advise me to select 'rename new file' in the action file, if I wish to populate a database with a filename that another user had used - say myphoto.jpg. When I upload the photo, the database field called 'photo' is populated with the name of the jpeg 'myphoto.jpg', but now I have two records with the same name for their photos.


The photos are being renamed correctly in the images folder, but as I said above, the new names - with the increment are not shown in the database.
See code below:

Question 2
I've also created a jpg called 'noimage.jpg' and this is the default image, that will be used if a user does not submit an image. The problem is that when a record is inserted (with no image), the default value that I setup in the database ('noimage.jpg') is not inserted - is this because I'm inserting a record called blank. How do I get it to default to ''noimage.jpg' if the user inserts nothing?

1) when using File Upload, a new binding group is created on the binding panel, "WA Uploaded File (<File field name>)", where <File field name> is the name of your file field. This binding group contains a Server File Name binding that contains the name of the file that is created in the server

in the insert record and update record behaviors, bind the image column to the Server File name binding

1) In the file upload behavior, set the Default File setting to noimage.jpg

Jason, that's fantastic. I've got a pretty interesting membership database almost developed, with, would you believe, pictures of the members now possible. This project took on a few extra legs, but I'm beginning to see light at the end of the tunnel. There's a little bit to go yet, but you've been a great help along the journey.
