Use Field Values For Filepath

IRHM

I wonder whether someone may be able to help me please.

I’m trying to load an xml file with the following filepath:

/UploadedFiles/username/location/files.xml

What I’ve been trying to do for some time, is to use the values of two forms fields, ‘username’ and ‘location’ and incorporate them into the filepath, but I just can’t seem to get this right.

I just wondered whether someone could someone perhaps tell me how I take these values and use them in the filepath.

Many thanks

POST AMENDMENT

I thought I could solve my issues by simply changing the file path, hence my original post, but I fear my lack of PHP knowledge as let me down and I suspect the issues I have are deeper within my code.

Please find below more detail.

The script below shows how I initially save the images.

‘upload.php’

<?php
require_once 'Includes/gallery_helper.php'; 
require_once 'ImageUploaderPHP/UploadHandler.class.php'; 
$galleryPath = 'UploadedFiles/'; 

function onFileUploaded($uploadedFile) { 
  global $galleryPath; 

  $packageFields = $uploadedFile->getPackage()->getPackageFields(); 
  $username=$packageFields["username"]; 
  $locationid=$packageFields["locationid"]; 
  $username = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9_-.()[]{}]/i', '_', $_POST['username']); 
  $location = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9_-.()[]{}]/i', '_', $_POST['locationid']); 
  $dirName = preg_replace('/[^a-z0-9_-.()[]{}]/i', '_', $_POST['folder']); 

  $absGalleryPath = realpath($galleryPath) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $username . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $location . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR; 
  $absThumbnailsPath = $absGalleryPath . 'Thumbnails' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR; 


  if (!is_dir($absGalleryPath)) mkdir($absGalleryPath, 0777, true); 
  chmod($absGalleryPath, 0777); 
  if (!is_dir($absGalleryPath . $dirName)) mkdir($absGalleryPath . $dirName, 0777, true); 
  chmod($absGalleryPath . $dirName, 0777); 

  if ($uploadedFile->getPackage()->getPackageIndex() == 0 && $uploadedFile->getIndex() == 0) 
    initGallery($absGalleryPath, $absThumbnailsPath, FALSE); 

  $originalFileName = $uploadedFile->getSourceName(); 
  $files = $uploadedFile->getConvertedFiles(); 
  $sourceFileName = getSafeFileName($absGalleryPath, $originalFileName); 
  $sourceFile = $files[0]; 

  if ($sourceFile) $sourceFile->moveTo($absGalleryPath . $sourceFileName); 
  $thumbnailFileName = getSafeFileName($absThumbnailsPath, $originalFileName); 
  $thumbnailFile = $files[1]; 
  if ($thumbnailFile) $thumbnailFile->moveTo($absThumbnailsPath . $thumbnailFileName); 

  $descriptions = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8'); 
  $descriptions->load($absGalleryPath . 'files.xml'); 

  $xmlFile = $descriptions->createElement('file'); 
  // <-- please check the following line 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('name', $_POST['folder'] . '/' . $originalFileName); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('source', $sourceFileName); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('size', $uploadedFile->getSourceSize()); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('originalname', $originalFileName); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('thumbnail', $thumbnailFileName); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('description', $uploadedFile->getDescription()); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('username', $username); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('locationid', $locationid); 
  $xmlFile->setAttribute('folder', $dirName); 


  $descriptions->documentElement->appendChild($xmlFile); 
  $descriptions->save($absGalleryPath . 'files.xml'); 
} 

$uh = new UploadHandler(); 
$uh->setFileUploadedCallback('onFileUploaded'); 
$uh->processRequest(); 
?>

This script produces the following file structure:

UploadedFiles (Pre-existing folder)

• ‘username’ (Subfolder containing ‘location’ folder)
• ‘location’ (Subfolder containing original image, ‘files.xml’ and ‘Thumbnails’ folder)
• ‘Thumbnails’ (Subfolder containing thumbnail of original image)

NB. The ‘username’ and ‘location folder names are derived from the current user and location values.

I then come onto my issue with the creation of the image gallery.

The code below is my initial ‘gallery.php’ script. I need to change the top PHP section of the script to match the new folder structure i.e. UploadedFiles/'username'/'location'/Thumbnails and UploadedFiles/'username'/'location'.files.xml

‘gallery.php’

<?php 

  $galleryPath = 'UploadedFiles/'; 

  $thumbnailsPath = $galleryPath . 'Thumbnails/'; 

  $absGalleryPath = realpath($galleryPath) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR; 

  $descriptions = new DOMDocument('1.0'); 
  $descriptions->load($absGalleryPath . 'files.xml'); 
?>

I admit to being at a real loss at how to solve this, I don’t whether it’s my ‘gallery.php’ script that needs to change or my ‘upload.php’

Any help would be so gratefully received.

Kind regards
