I am trying to make a form in php that uploads an image from mobile. The name of the image is stored in mysql database for retrieval. The code is working fine. I wanted to know if I can store the location of the image that is stored in the phone. I want to store the location in mysql database table column.

I want to store Finger Print Image into mySql Database and move it into folder through fingerprint reader device (device name: digital persona) in PHP. can Any one help please by sharing code .
Thanks in advance...!
You can not store the image directly in the database.
But what you want can be achieved by following these steps:
Upload the image (probably at your host or any third party file manager)
Get the location of the stored image.
Upload the location of the image in the database.
and when you want to display it, just get the location of the image from database and use it as you want!
Thanks.
I have uploaded and stored multiple images at a time in a MySQL database using jQuery and PHP. This time I am storing image name in database and uploads file in a folder at server.
Now, I want to retrieve image name from database and preview this image and also want to provide actions of delete and add images.
Can anyone help me out on this issue?
Here is my steps:
Create a php file
Connect to mysql database
Select the table where the images was saved.
Loop the query.
Add delete query.
Hope this helps.
I am looking for a very basic image uploader script. Just one that uploads the image to a folder and stores the filename in a mysql database.
Is there any small easy to intergrate scripts anyone know of?
Thank you for the help
This tutorial does what you want http://php.about.com/od/phpwithmysql/ss/Upload_file_sql.htm in addition stores some extra metadata in the same table (employee details) along with the filename (photo)
Images can be saved as blob types in a database
You have to create a form with a browse button (google it)
You have to create your table with the a field of type blob
That's it.
i just wanna ask on how to make a simple gallery for my website wherein the images used to display are from database and will automatically display on the gallery? so that when i have to update the images i won't enormously create thumbnails..??
I would recommend against keeping the image data in a database, it's almost always a bad idea.
I would recommend storing metadata about the images in the database and then including a pointer to the file (the image's path on the local filesystem). If you need to make thumbnails create them as the images are added, store them on the filesystem too and store the path to them in the table too.
Another approach is to have the filename of the image and thumbnail as a function of the image ID. E.g. store it on the server at /some/directory/images/123.jpg and /some/directory/images/123_thumbnail.jpg where 123 is the id of the image.
use mysql BLOB storage - Example: http://www.anyexample.com/programming/php/php_mysql_example__image_gallery_%28blob_storage%29.xml
You can create the thumbnails and update the database when the images are uploaded to a directory within your http path. A simple php routine can extract the picture names from the db and include them in your gallery.
