Hi all,
With regards to the following, how do I append the datetimestamp to
the filenames in the form? The files are processed using the PHP
script that follows below.
Thanks in advance,
Don
Following running on client-side:
--------------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;

<script type="text/javascript">
function datetimestamp()
{
var today = new Date();
var sToday = (today.getMonth ()+1).toString( );
sToday += today.getDate() .toString();
sToday += today.getYear() .toString();
sToday += today.getHours( ).toString();
sToday += today.getMinute s().toString();
sToday += today.getSecond s().toString();
return sToday;
}
</script>
<form enctype="multip art/form-data" action="http://notRealURL.php"

Send file 4: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" /><br />

Following server-side PHP script receives and uploads the files:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php

$uploadfile1 = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'][0];
$uploadfile2 = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'][1];

if (move_uploaded_ file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'][0],
$uploadfile1)) {
print "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded. ";
print "Here's some more debugging info:\n";
print_r($_FILES );
} else {

sToday += today.getHours( ).toString();

}
</script>
That's a very bad format for a date stamp. Ignoring the
similar problems with hours minutes and seconds, how would
you interpret the date stamp: "1122004"? Is that November
2nd, or is it January 12th? You need to pad any single-digit
values to two digits. Then, you'll probably want to change
the order to Year,Month,Date ,Hours,Minutes, Seconds, so you
can sort the values easily.
If you want to pass the client's clock time to the server,
there's no need to append it to the filename on the client
side (not possible, anyway). Just pass it in a hidden form
field. However, it would be simpler and more reliable to
have your PHP script determine the time on the server. You
never know whether the client's clock is correct, and you're
not recording their timezone.

Hi Lee,
I'm not done with function datetimestamp. I intend to do as you
suggested.
Regarding passing the datetimestamp to the PHP script on the
server-side, can you show me some code on the client-side (html),and
in the PHP script on the server-side? I'm quite new at JS
programming, and am not sure how to go about it. I will still need to
have the server-side PHP script append that datetimestamp to the file
name. The purpose of these scripts is to allow uploading of 1 - 4
picture fiiles from the client's desktop. The reason for appending
the datetime to the file name is to ensure another client can't easily
overwrite a previous client's upload.
Here's the client-side html:
--------------------------------
<form enctype="multip art/form-data"
action="http://notRealURL.com/cpcenhanced/processpics.php "
method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_ SIZE" value="200000" />
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_INPUT _TIME" value="280" />
Send file 1: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" /><br />
Send file 2: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" /><br />
Send file 3: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" /><br />
Send file 4: <input name="userfile[]" type="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="Send File" />
</form>
And, here's the server-side PHP:
---------------------------------------
<?php
$uploaddir = 'picturevault/';
$uploadfile1 = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'][0];
$uploadfile2 = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'][1];
$uploadfile3 = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'][2];
$uploadfile4 = $uploaddir . $_FILES['userfile']['name'][3];
print "<pre>";
if ($_FILES['userfile']['size'][0] != 0)
move_uploaded_f ile($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'][0],
$uploadfile1);
if ($_FILES['userfile']['size'][1] != 0)
move_uploaded_f ile($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'][1],
$uploadfile2);
if ($_FILES['userfile']['size'][2] != 0)
move_uploaded_f ile($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'][2],
$uploadfile3);
if ($_FILES['userfile']['size'][3] != 0)
move_uploaded_f ile($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'][3],
$uploadfile4);
print "</pre>";
?>

If you do it on the server, then you have no need to attempt to do it on
the client. As Lee said, you can't do what you are wanting anyway. And
even if you could modify the value of a file input field, it's still not
the best way to do it.

That is why you need to append the datetime on the server, not on the
client. Let's say Lee and I both attach files, and the time on *our*
computers generate the exact same date/time stamp. Then, you have the
problem. It also does not prevent my clock from being wrong and me
resetting it and overwriting my own files. By doing the date time stamp
on the server, you have a lot more control over the time stamp.
A better, more reliable, method would be to assign them numbers in
numerical order. Check the last file name, increase its counter, and
carry on.

Hi Randy,
The reason I wanted to append the date/time stamp on the client-side
is that that same composite file name is then going to be used in the
same client-side page for other purposes. So, I need to know the
date/time stamp before I submit the form. However, I like even better
your idea of running a sequence counter on the server side. However,
again the client side page containing JS will need to know the
sequence number assigned by PHP on the server side. How do I
communicate back to the client page that submitted the form the
sequence number determined by the server side PHP? I'm finding this
quite difficult, but I sure am learning a lot.
Thanks for your help.
Don

When the form gets submitted to the server, the page that the server
returns can have the image names in it. Or, post it to a hidden IFrame
and read them from there. For the non-JS browsing audience, the first
scenario is preferred.
Page1.php submits the images to Page2.php, Page2.php can get the names
of the images and include them in the page it returns. echo $imageName;
