Get Image From Http Post With Php

So I am sending an image over the internet using HTTP POST and sending it to a php script on my server. I want to be able to take that image and save it. I am doing this fine with

Solution 1:

The error code "1" means that the image you tried to upload is too big. http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.errors.php

Check your upload_max_filesize setting in php.ini.

I saw that your are trying to continue with $_FILES['media']['name'], but the actually uploaded file is available by the path given in $_FILES['media']['tmp_name'].

To be sure you handle your upload correctly refer to the php-docu: http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.post-method.php

Solution 2:

First you must output the result of file_get_contents (1), then you need to tell the browser that you're serving up an image instead of standard HTML (2).

echo file_get_contents('dummy.jpg'); // 1
header("Content-Type: image/jpg");   // 2

I just skimmed the surface for the header function; you'll want to add a few more headers in a real-world case. Check out:

• php headers

Solution 3:

Check the $_FILES array on the PHP side and see if your image is in there...

Do print_r($_FILES);
