upload image with text

Hi coder,


any help how to upload image together with text.

conroller

PHP Code:

public function do_upload()
   {
    $config['upload_path'] = './upload/';
    $config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
    $config['max_size'] = '100';
    $config['max_width']  = '500';
    $config['max_height']  = '500';

    $this->load->library('upload', $config);
                
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('item', 'item', 'trim|required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('price', 'price', 'trim|required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('weight', 'weight', 'trim|required');
                
    if($this->form_validation->run() == false)
        {
            $this->load->view('admin');
            return false;
        }
    if(! $this->upload->do_upload())
        {
            $error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
            $this->load->view('admin', $error);
        }
    else
        {
            $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
            $item = $this->input->post('item');
            $price = $this->input->post('price');
            $weight = $this->input->post('weight');
                        
            $this->admin_model->act_additem($item, $price, $weight, $data["file_name"]);
                        
            $this->load->view('admin', $data);
        }
   } 


model

PHP Code:

public function act_additem($item, $price, $weight, $data['file_name'])
    { 
         $query = $this->db->query("INSERT INTO stocks(item,price,weight,img) VALUES('$item','$price','$weight','$data[file_name]')");
    } 


Hi, what was wrong with this code, i did not get the image file name to insert, while text file are getting to insert well.

PHP Code:

public function do_upload()
            {
                $config['upload_path'] = 'upload/';
                $config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
                $config['max_size']    = '100';
                $config['max_width']  = '1024';
                $config['max_height']  = '768';

                $this->load->library('upload',$config);

                $upload_data = $this->upload->data(); 
                $file_name =   $upload_data['file_name'];

                $item = $this->input->post('item');
                $price = $this->input->post('price');
                $weight = $this->input->post('weight');
                        
                $data['result'] = $this->admin_model->act_additem($item, $price, $weight, $file_name);
                        
                $this->load->view('admin');
                
            } 


Your model function is wrong.. File name should be a variable not element from array.. 

And I can suggest to you to use DB insert method from CI db activerecords

PHP Code:

   public function act_additem($item, $price, $weight, $file_name)
   {
        $data = array(
            'item'   => $item,
            'price'  => $price,
            'weight' => $weight,
            'img'    => $file_name
        );
        return (bool) $this->db->insert('stocks', $data); 
   } 


Here is and one little update of the controller method I can suggest to you..

PHP Code:

   public function do_upload()
    {
        $config['upload_path'] = './upload/';
        $config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
        $config['max_size'] = '100';
        $config['max_width']  = '500';
        $config['max_height']  = '500';

        $this->load->library('upload', $config);
        
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('item', 'item', 'trim|required');
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('price', 'price', 'trim|required');
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('weight', 'weight', 'trim|required');
        
        $data = array();

        if( $this->form_validation->run() !== false)
        {
            $data['error'] = 'Invalid form data..'; // You can use and form-validation messages inside your view
        }

        if( ! isset($data['error']) && ! $this->upload->do_upload())
        {
            $data['error'] = $this->upload->display_errors();
        }

        if( ! isset($data['error'])) {
            $data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
            $item = $this->input->post('item');
            $price = $this->input->post('price');
            $weight = $this->input->post('weight');
            
            if( ! $this->admin_model->act_additem($item, $price, $weight, $data["upload_data"]["file_name"])) {
                // Either add error or fully replace the return $data
                // It can be a good idea to delete the uploaded file if its information is not stored at DB
                $data['error'] = "Unable to save it inside our DB!";
            }
            else
            {
                // Some param just to know that everything went well..
                $data['success'] = "You upload was successful!";
            }
        }


        return $this->load->view('admin', $data);
    } 


P.S. I forgot to mention one important thing:

$data["file_name"] - this is not valid because you are storing the upload array inside $data["upload_data"]..
Use $data["upload_data"]["file_name"] instead!

Thanks for your help but still same, its still did not get the file name of an image.. i think the problem is here

PHP Code:

$upload_data = $this->upload->data(); 
     $file_name =   $upload_data['file_name']; 


but i have no idea, how to get it correct.

Hi sv3tli0 for your help, im getting near to a real.

still not work and here is my view.. and i don't know where is the problem..

PHP Code:

<form action = "<?php echo base_url();?>index.php/admin/do_upload" method = "post" name="create_po">
    
    <input type="text" name = "item" value = "" class="form-control" id="new_textsz"  required="required">
    <input type="text" name = "price" value = ""class="form-control" id="new_textsz"  required="required">
    <input type="text" name = "weight" value = ""class="form-control" id="new_textsz"  required="required">
    <input type="file" name="image" /><br />
<button class="btn btn-primary type="submit" name = "submit">Save</button>
</form> 


I forgot one thing:
Set the field name at do_upload as default is userfile I think..

PHP Code:

$this->upload->do_upload('image') 


And from your view I see that you are missing 1 " after button class's btn btn-primary and more important is that your form element must have:

Code:

enctype="multipart/form-data"
