I am struggling with this issue right now. I have read in a number of places that you should not store the image itself in the database, but rather only the filepath/filename.
I can't seem to find anyone who tells how to do that, though. Maybe I just haven't found the right tutorial. Assuming I want to go this route, HOW do I do it?
What I want to do is give a visitor to my page the option to upload a photo, have the photo file (or its filepath/filename reference) stored in the database, and then display in a different page.
Where can I find a good tutorial to teach me how to do this. I am pretty new to all this MySQL and PHP stuff, so it must be fairly clearcut.
Thanks!
