Run script without echo?

[bytesize]

I need help making img src work without using echo.

The session has been started from another page.

<?php

$name = $_FILES['change']['name']['myfile'];
$tmp_name = $_FILES['change']['tmp_name']['myfile'];

if($name)
{
//start upload process
$dblocation = "$name";
$location = "photos/$name";
move_uploaded_file($tmp_name,$location);

$origloc = $location; 
$_SESSION['imglocation'] = $origloc;
echo "<img src='../crop.php?h=50&w=50&f=$origloc' />";
}

?>

When you say from another page, do you mean another file that is included on this request, or from a completely different request? In-case of the latter, session_start must be called on EVERY request you want to use it.

The session works. I did not want to include all of the code from the switch. The only reason I mentioned it is because someone asked on another post of mine if the session had been started.

Not sure what you mean by 'not using echo'.

You want the image to display, but without using the 'echo' command?

replace the echo with return

 

and use something like this

<?php

function img_src()
{
    include("img_src.php");
}

echo img_src();

The image is copied to a folder and another script displays the image.

photos/whatever.jpg is put into f and crop.php crops the image and copies it to crops/whatever.jpg

 

<img src='../crop.php?h=50&w=50&f=photos/whatever.jpg' />

crop.php needs to run using <img src='../crop.php?h=50&w=50&f=$origloc' /> , it's the only way this will work.

not really, the method i just gave will work as well, but your crop.php must be designed more as a function, and return the link.

for example removal of the $_GET params to variables.

You're not doing a great job of explaining the problem here. What is it you're trying to do exactly? As litlebearer asked a while back, what do you mean by not using 'echo'? Does the crop.php script return an image, otherwise why are you using an image tag to call a script that performs operations on the file system?
