Image Uploads

[iamthestig]

Hi!

I am trying my darnedest to write an image uploading app in J2ME with absolutely no java experience (I have lots of programming experience, just not java )<-- thats a sad face and a close bracket, not a man with a big mouth

I have got an image uploading script that i found online working (it seems) but on the web server end the bit that "receives" the file is written in jsp which again I have no experience in, and even worse, my hosting company doesn't support. So I am looking to write the script in php. Anyone keen to lend me a hand? I will owe you big time

I have had a look at the image upload class on the nokia forum (this one)but I haven't got a clue where to start with that either. Any help with that would also be much appreciated. Save a whale, plant a tree, help a noob!

You can use this PHP script to receive the image on your server which supports PHP.

Thanks very much for the reply. So is the form posted like a normal php form would be?
So I can recover the files something like:

$_FILE['fileName']?

Thats great news!
Is this the java that's sending the files to the webserver:

String fileName = pictureURI.getString().substring(pictureURI.getString().lastIndexOf('/'));
....
..
.

display.setCurrent(createScreenProgress("Uploading...", 100));
      
         MultipartHttpConnection mhc;
         if(username == null || username.equals(""))
            mhc = new MultipartHttpConnection(uploadURL, progress);
         else
            mhc = new MultipartHttpConnection(uploadURL, progress, username, password);
      mhc.addImg(rawImage, fileName, textLabel.getString());
      response = mhc.send();

if(response.indexOf("success") != -1)
      {
         String fileSize = response.substring(response.lastIndexOf('|'));
         messageField.setText(fileName.substring(1) + " (" + fileSize + "kb) uploaded successfully");
      }
      else if(response.indexOf("fail") != -1)
      {
         messageField.setText("Upload failed: " + response);
      }
      else
      {
         messageField.setText("Something happened... " + response);
      }
      
      display.setCurrent(detailsForm);

Is the file fields variable name fileName?
Also, where would the 'form' name be set?

Thanks so much for your help, this forum is the best!
