I want to implement a simple file upload in my intranet-page, with the smallest setup possible.
This is my HTML part:
<input id="sortpicture" type="file" name="sortpic" />
<button id="upload">Upload</button>
and this is my JS jquery script:
$("#upload").on("click", function() {
var file_data = $("#sortpicture").prop("files")[0];
var form_data = new FormData();
form_data.append("file", file_data);
alert(form_data);
$.ajax({
url: "/uploads",
dataType: 'script',
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
data: form_data,
type: 'post',
success: function(){
alert("works");
}
});
});
There is a folder named "uploads" in the root directory of the website, with change permissions for "users" and "IIS_users".
When I select a file with the file-form and press the upload button, the first alert returns "[object FormData]". the second alert doesn't get called and the"uploads" folder is empty too!?
Can someone help my finding out whats wrong?
Also the next step should be, to rename the file with a server side generated name. Maybe someone can give me a solution for this, too.
You need a script that runs on the server to move the file to the uploads directory. The jQuery ajax method (running on the client in the browser) sends the form data to the server, then a script running on the server handles the upload.
Your HTML is fine, but update your JS jQuery script to look like this:
(Look for comments after // <-- )
$('#upload').on('click', function() {
var file_data = $('#sortpicture').prop('files')[0];
var form_data = new FormData();
form_data.append('file', file_data);
alert(form_data);
$.ajax({
url: 'upload.php', // <-- point to server-side PHP script
dataType: 'text', // <-- what to expect back from the PHP script, if anything
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
data: form_data,
type: 'post',
success: function(php_script_response){
alert(php_script_response); // <-- display response from the PHP script, if any
}
});
});
And now for the server-side script, using PHP in this case.
upload.php: a PHP script that is located and runs on the server, and directs the file to the uploads directory:
<?php
if ( 0 < $_FILES['file']['error'] ) {
echo 'Error: ' . $_FILES['file']['error'] . '<br>';
}
else {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], 'uploads/' . $_FILES['file']['name']);
}
?>
Also, a couple things about the destination directory:
Make sure you have the correct server path, i.e., starting at the PHP script location what is the path to the uploads directory, and
Make sure it's writeable.
And a little bit about the PHP function move_uploaded_file, used in the upload.php script:
move_uploaded_file(
// this is where the file is temporarily stored on the server when uploaded
// do not change this
$_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],
// this is where you want to put the file and what you want to name it
// in this case we are putting in a directory called "uploads"
// and giving it the original filename
'uploads/' . $_FILES['file']['name']
);
$_FILES['file']['name'] is the name of the file as it is uploaded. You don't have to use that. You can give the file any name (server filesystem compatible) you want:
move_uploaded_file(
$_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],
'uploads/my_new_filename.whatever'
);
And finally, be aware of your PHP upload_max_filesize AND post_max_size configuration values, and be sure your test files do not exceed either. Here's some help how you check PHP configuration and how you set max filesize and post settings.
**1. index.php**
<body>
<span id="msg" style="color:red"></span><br/>
<input type="file" id="photo"><br/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(document).on('change','#photo',function(){
var property = document.getElementById('photo').files[0];
var image_name = property.name;
var image_extension = image_name.split('.').pop().toLowerCase();
if(jQuery.inArray(image_extension,['gif','jpg','jpeg','']) == -1){
alert("Invalid image file");
}
var form_data = new FormData();
form_data.append("file",property);
$.ajax({
url:'upload.php',
method:'POST',
data:form_data,
contentType:false,
cache:false,
processData:false,
beforeSend:function(){
$('#msg').html('Loading......');
},
success:function(data){
console.log(data);
$('#msg').html(data);
}
});
});
});
</script>

**2.upload.php**
<?php
if($_FILES['file']['name'] != ''){
$test = explode('.', $_FILES['file']['name']);
$extension = end($test);
$name = rand(100,999).'.'.$extension;
$location = 'uploads/'.$name;
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $location);

await fetch('/uploads', {method: "POST", body: formData});
alert('works');
}
<input id="sortpicture" type="file" name="sortpic" />
<button id="upload" onclick="saveFile()">Upload</button>
<br>Before click upload look on chrome>console>network (in this snipped we will see 404)
The filename is automatically included to request and server can read it, the 'content-type' is automatically set to 'multipart/form-data'. Here is more developed example with error handling and additional json sending
async function saveFile(inp)
{
let user = { name:'john', age:34 };
let formData = new FormData();
let photo = inp.files[0];
formData.append("photo", photo);
formData.append("user", JSON.stringify(user));
try {
let r = await fetch('/upload/image', {method: "POST", body: formData});
console.log('HTTP response code:',r.status);
alert('success');
} catch(e) {
console.log('Huston we have problem...:', e);
}
}
<input type="file" onchange="saveFile(this)" >
<br><br>
Before selecting the file Open chrome console > network tab to see the request details.

},
success: function(data){
},
error: function(xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
console.log(thrownError + "\r\n" + xhr.statusText + "\r\n" + xhr.responseText);

I am trying to send an image via JavaScript after displaying the preview on the screen, I refuse to use Dropzone, Plupload or any JavaScript library, because I just want a simple functionality.
var finput;
var fileReader;
var fd; //formdata...
$(function(){
fileReader = new FileReader;
fileReader.onload = function(e) {
var img = document.createElement("img");
img.src = fileReader.result; //display the image on the screen...
img.height = 200;
$('#pimgbox').html(img);
//enable the image button... // $('#pimagebox').html(img);
$('#pimgbtn').removeAttr('disabled', 'disabled').removeClass('btn-alert').addClass('btn-primary');
}
});
and when you click on the submit button
$('#pimgbtn').bind('click', function(e){
//initialize the formdata...
fd = new FormData(); //initialize the formdata..
fd.append('pimgupl', finput.files[0]); //s
//alert(fd);
$('#pimgldr').css('display','block');
$(this).attr('disabled', 'disabled').removeClass('btn-primary').addClass('btn-alert')
if(fileReader.result != null){
////////////// beginning of ajax call...
var settings = {
type: "POST",
url: "/user/setprofilepix",
data: fd
}; //end of setting..
$.ajax(settings)
.done(function (response) {
alert(response);
resetPUplButtons();
//close modal...
$('#profimgwin').modal('hide');
})
.fail(function (jqXHR, textStatus, error) {
alert('error sending file...' + error);
resetPUplButtons();
});
/////////////////////////end of ajax calls..
}else{
alert('you havent selected an image yet..');
resetPUplButtons();
}
});
and on my Laravel usercontroller I have this method that tries to upload the image but it's refusing to work.
public function setProfilePix(Request $request){
$file = $request->file('pimgupl');
$code = Auth::user()->profile->usrcode;
$targetDir = public_path() . DS . 'userdata'.DS.'ppix';
$newname = $targetDir.DS.strtolower($code).md5($code).'_'.time() .'.jpg';
// echo $newname;
//exit;
$file->move($targetDir, $newname);
echo 'saved';
}
I keep getting this error in my output panel:
Line 418 is the ajax operation, I have tried everything but nothing seems to be working. I have also added an exception to the route in my verifyCsrfToken.php - middleware, but still it isn't working.
In your jQuery try changing settings from
var settings = {
type: "POST",
url: "/user/setprofilepix",
data: fd
};
to
var settings = {
type: "POST",
url: "/user/setprofilepix",
data: fd,
processData: false,
contentType: false,
};
I am still can't get any answer of this question. Could any one help me out this issue.
I am trying to send an email with attachment to select person. So, I have filtered the data from database and send email with attachment to selected users.
I have gone through the below answer:
How can I upload files asynchronously?
I have tried the below code of JQuery, Ajax, Controller Action:
<script type="text/javascript">
function SendEmail(){
var checked=0;
jQuery("#action_row").val('delete');
var filename = jQuery("#UserPdf").val();
var audits = '';
$('.checkboxes:checked').each(function(){
checked=1;
audits += this.value+',';
});
var auditsval = audits.slice(0, -1);
//alert(auditsval);
if(checked==1){
var con = confirm('Are you sure you want to send email?');
if(con){
jQuery.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: CommanPath.basePath+'admin/users/send_email',
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
data: {
file: filename,
ids: auditsval,
},
success: function (data) {
alert("Email sent to selected users ");
}
});
}
}else{
alert("Please select atleast one to send email");
}
}
</script>
UsersCOntroller.php
public function admin_send_email($id = null){
//echo 'here'; die;
$this->layout = 'ajax';
echo '<pre>'; print_r($_FILES); die;
if(isset($this->params['data']['file']) && $this->params['data']['file']){
$filename = time().$this->params['data']['file'];
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['data']['tmp_name']['file']['name'], WWW_ROOT.'uploads/sellingtools/' . $filename);
}
$userids = explode(",", $this->params['data']['ids']);
echo '<pre>'; print_r($userids); die;
}
When I am trying to get uploaded file name, I am getting only file name not getting the tmp_name.
Anyone can let me know how I can get the tmp_name and move file to exact path.
Please help.
You need to use Form and FormData as below
HTML:
<form id="myForm" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="file">
</form>
JQUERY:
function SendEmail(){
var checked=0;
jQuery("#action_row").val('delete');
var filename = jQuery("#UserPdf").val();
var audits = '';
$('.checkboxes:checked').each(function(){
checked=1;
audits += this.value+',';
});
var auditsval = audits.slice(0, -1);
//alert(auditsval);
var formdata = new FormData($('#myForm')[0]); /////formdata object
formdata.append('ids',auditsval); /// add additional fields
if(checked==1){
var con = confirm('Are you sure you want to send email?');
if(con){
jQuery.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: CommanPath.basePath+'admin/users/send_email',
processData: false, ///required to upload file
contentType: false, /// required
data: formdata, /// send form data
success: function (data) {
alert("Email sent to selected users ");
}
});
}
}else{
alert("Please select atleast one to send email");
}
}
