Form method file placement - Mekaboo - 06-28-2019 Hey!!! I have a file that is apart of a form method: <form method="post" action="postAction.php" enctype="multipart/form-data"> I have the postAction.php file in my view folder but its not working. I wonder should it be in the controller or model folder instead? Here are the contents of the file: PostAction.php <?php // Start session session_start(); // Include and initialize DB class require_once 'DB.class.php'; $db = new DB(); $tblName = 'images'; // File upload path $uploadDir = "uploads/images/"; // Allow file formats $allowTypes = array('jpg','png','jpeg','gif'); // Set default redirect url $redirectURL = 'profile.php'; $statusMsg = ''; $sessData = array(); $statusType = 'danger'; if(isset($_POST['imgSubmit'])){ // Set redirect url $redirectURL = 'addEdit.php'; // Get submitted data $image = $_FILES['image']; $title = $_POST['title']; $id = $_POST['id']; // Submitted user data $imgData = array( 'title' => $title ); // Store submitted data into session $sessData['postData'] = $imgData; $sessData['postData']['id'] = $id; // ID query string $idStr = !empty($id)?'?id='.$id:''; // If the data is not empty if((!empty($image['name']) && !empty($title)) || (!empty($id) && !empty($title))){ if(!empty($image)){ $fileName = basename($image["name"]); $targetFilePath = $uploadDir . $fileName; $fileType = pathinfo($targetFilePath,PATHINFO_EXTENSION); if(in_array($fileType, $allowTypes)){ // Upload file to server if(move_uploaded_file($image["tmp_name"], $targetFilePath)){ $imgData['file_name'] = $fileName; }else{ $statusMsg = "Sorry, there was an error uploading your file."; } }else{ $statusMsg = "Sorry, only JPG, JPEG, PNG, & GIF files are allowed to upload."; } } if(!empty($id)){ // Previous file name $conditions['where'] = array( 'id' => $_GET['id'], ); $conditions['return_type'] = 'single'; $prevData = $db->getRows('images', $conditions); // Update data $condition = array('id' => $id); $update = $db->update($tblName, $imgData, $condition); if($update){ // Remove old file from server if(!empty($imgData['file_name'])){ @unlink($uploadDir.$prevData['file_name']); } $statusType = 'success'; $statusMsg = 'Image data has been updated successfully.'; $sessData['postData'] = ''; $redirectURL = 'manage.php'; }else{ $statusMsg = 'Some problem occurred, please try again.'; // Set redirect url $redirectURL .= $idStr; } }elseif(!empty($imgData['file_name'])){ // Insert data $insert = $db->insert($tblName, $imgData); if($insert){ $statusType = 'success'; $statusMsg = 'Image has been uploaded successfully.'; $sessData['postData'] = ''; $redirectURL = 'manage.php'; }else{ $statusMsg = 'Some problem occurred, please try again.'; } } }else{ $statusMsg = 'All fields are mandatory, please fill all the fields.'; } // Status message $sessData['status']['type'] = $statusType; $sessData['status']['msg'] = $statusMsg; }elseif(($_REQUEST['action_type'] == 'block') && !empty($_GET['id'])){ // Update data $imgData = array('status' => 0); $condition = array('id' => $_GET['id']); $update = $db->update($tblName, $imgData, $condition); if($update){ $statusType = 'success'; $statusMsg = 'Image data has been blocked successfully.'; }else{ $statusMsg = 'Some problem occurred, please try again.'; } // Status message $sessData['status']['type'] = $statusType; $sessData['status']['msg'] = $statusMsg; }elseif(($_REQUEST['action_type'] == 'unblock') && !empty($_GET['id'])){ // Update data $imgData = array('status' => 1); $condition = array('id' => $_GET['id']); $update = $db->update($tblName, $imgData, $condition); if($update){ $statusType = 'success'; $statusMsg = 'Image data has been activated successfully.'; }else{ $statusMsg = 'Some problem occurred, please try again.'; } // Status message $sessData['status']['type'] = $statusType; $sessData['status']['msg'] = $statusMsg; }elseif(($_REQUEST['action_type'] == 'delete') && !empty($_GET['id'])){ // Previous file name $conditions['where'] = array( 'id' => $_GET['id'], ); $conditions['return_type'] = 'single'; $prevData = $db->getRows('images', $conditions); // Delete data $condition = array('id' => $_GET['id']); $delete = $db->delete($tblName, $condition); if($delete){ // Remove old file from server @unlink($uploadDir.$prevData['file_name']); $statusType = 'success'; $statusMsg = 'Image data has been deleted successfully.'; }else{ $statusMsg = 'Some problem occurred, please try again.'; } // Status message $sessData['status']['type'] = $statusType; $sessData['status']['msg'] = $statusMsg; } // Store status into the session $_SESSION['sessData'] = $sessData; // Redirect the user header("Location: ".$redirectURL); exit(); ?> Is this a controller or model file? , Mekaboo RE: Form method file placement - Piotr - 06-28-2019 This is a pure php. Not a CI Controller and not CI Model RE: Form method file placement - Wouter60 - 06-29-2019 Please, take some time (a view days!) to read the CI documentation and tutorial. Your code indicates that you have no understanding of the CI principles. You really need to do some studying. If you keep asking other people on this forum to solve error messages in old style php, that won't bring you any further. RE: Form method file placement - Mekaboo - 06-29-2019 Thank you for the response..sorry for asking too many questions! ❤️❤️, Mekaboo RE: Form method file placement - InsiteFX - 06-29-2019 Take the external php file and convert it to a method in your controller then post to that.

I actually created a controller (Form.php) and converted it. Working on making sure it works! Thank ya for the feedback RE: Form method file placement - Mekaboo - 07-01-2019 Hey! Doing some research I used the form helper and things now work fine: https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/helpers/form_helper.html I think my issue is Im putting cart before horse which makes me realize that alot of my questions can be solved easy and somewhat quickly!! |
