updating table in mysql - php

Question

hi im planning to update my sql database by using these line of codes
<?php
//session_start();
$user=$_SESSION['user_level'];
// Check if a file has been uploaded
if(isset($_FILES['fileToUpload'])) {
// Make sure the file was sent without errors
if($_FILES['fileToUpload']['error'] == 0) {
// Connect to the database
$dbLink = new mysqli('$host', '$user', '$pass',
'$tbl_name');
if(mysqli_connect_errno()) {
die("MySQL connection failed: ". mysqli_connect_error());
}
// Gather all required data
//$id= mysql_insert_id();
$name = $dbLink->real_escape_string($_FILES['fileToUpload']['name']);
$mime = $dbLink->real_escape_string($_FILES['fileToUpload']['type']);
$data = $dbLink->real_escape_string(file_get_contents($_FILES ['fileToUpload']
['tmp_name']));
$size = intval($_FILES['fileToUpload']['size']);
// Create the SQL query
$query = "
UPDATE userinfo SET resume=$name
WHERE FirstName=$user";
// Execute the query
$result = $dbLink->query($query);}}
?>
<?php
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"],
"/home/u152912911/public_html/upload/" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);
?>
<?php
if ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["error"] > 0)
{
echo "Apologies, an error has occurred.";
echo "Error Code: " . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["error"];
}
else
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"],
"/home/u152912911/public_html/upload/" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);
}
if (($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/DOC")
|| ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/png" )
&& ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["size"] < 10000))
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"],
"/home/u152912911/public_html/upload/" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);
ECHO "Files Uploaded Succesfully";
echo'<script type="text/javascript">
window.location.href ="resume2.php"
</script>';
}
else
{
}
echo "Your Resume was Successfully Upload";
?>
the problem is it doesn't work. my column for resume doesn't change. am i missing something? because it doesn't display any error. thank you in advance!

Answer 1

You just use the following the line
$query = "UPDATE userinfo SET resume='$name' WHERE FirstName='$user'";
instead of
$query = "UPDATE userinfo SET resume=$name WHERE FirstName=$user";
just try it. It may works

Answer 2

Try with the following :
PHP Part :
<?php
$host = 'Your Host Name';
$user = 'Your Database Username';
$pass = 'Your Database Password';
$db_name = 'Your Database Name';
$first_name = 'john';//Here your session user firstname
//Check if a file has been uploaded
if(isset($_FILES['fileToUpload'])) {
// Connect to the database
$dbLink = new mysqli(''.$host.'', ''.$user.'', ''.$pass.'',''.$db_name.'');
/*
* This is the "official" OO way to do it,
* BUT $connect_error was broken until PHP 5.2.9 and 5.3.0.
*/
if ($dbLink->connect_error) {
die('Connect Error (' . $dbLink->connect_errno . ') '. $dbLink->connect_error);
}
$name = $_FILES['fileToUpload']['name'];
$mime = $_FILES['fileToUpload']['type'];
$temp_name = $_FILES['fileToUpload']['tmp_name'];
$size = intval($_FILES['fileToUpload']['size']);
$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
if(($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/DOC") || ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/jpeg") || ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/png" ) && ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["size"] < 10000)) {
// Create the SQL query
$query = "UPDATE `userinfo` SET `resume`='$name' WHERE `FirstName`='$first_name'";
// Execute the query
$result = $dbLink->query($query);
move_uploaded_file($temp_name,"gallery3/".$name);
echo "Files Uploaded Succesfully";
}
else {
echo "Apologies, an error has occurred.";
echo "Error Code: " . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["error"];
}
}
?>
HTML Part :
<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="fileupload">
<input type="file" name="fileToUpload">
<input type="hidden" name="first_name" value="<?php echo $first_name;?>">
<input type="submit" name="uploading" value="File Upload">
</form>
I think this may help you to resolve your problem.
