Jquery File Upload - El Forum - 03-12-2011

[eluser]sunnyd[/eluser]
I am aware that there are several Jquery file upload topics on here but after trying and failing with so many suggested solutions shown in the topins in the forum, I came across this example here https://github.com/blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload/wiki/How-to-use-the-plugin-with-CodeIgniter

Tested it and it uploads files to their correct folder. However, I can seem to save the filename into my database. Does anyone have an idea of how this can be achieved.

Thanks

Sunny

Looking at the example, if the upload was successful, what you want to do is call the upload library data() method to get an array that contains the file name:
Code:
$this->upload->data();

Example:
Code:
$data = $this->upload->data();
echo $data['file_name'];
