I am trying to build a form that includes an upload of a picture that I want to store in a mysql database. I have 2 questions. I am a newbie trying to learn and my book doesn't seem to give proper answers.
First, what am I supposed to put for the path in $file_dir? An example? I keep getting a warning "Warning: move_uploaded_file(/tmp/fish pic.jpg) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\do_upload.php on line 10". Here is the code:
This is run from the following HTML form:
My second question is how do I get my pictures into mysql? I have a MySQL table already made that has a mediumblob column to store the pictures.
Cheers!

echo "type: ".$file_array['type']."<br>\n";
echo "size: ".$file_array['size']."<br>\n";
if (is_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'])) {
move_uploaded_file($file_array['tmp_name'], "$file_dir/$file_array[name]") or die ("Couldn't copy");
echo "file was moved!<br><br>";
}
}
