arbitter Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 This has probably been asked here tons of times, and yes I've searched on google but I can't find a decently explained method. What I want is to be able to upload a whole directory of pictures at once. These pictures must go through the following: Be cropped in size (about 600px width/height) This must be stored in a folder under a random name A thumbnail must be made, with the same name, in another folder The location of each picture should be stored in a database What I've said here is all PHP I presume, and that I can take care of, I think. The problem is the multiuploader. I understand it can't be done in PHP, since PHP lets only 1 file per input tag, so you cannot select a directory. So this should be done with javascript/java/??? Additional questions: if I do mkdir('/pictures/$mapname/thumbs');, the 'pictures' already exists but the rest doesn't. Does it create the $mapname dir and the thumbs, or should I use 2 different mkdir's? What width is best to save the images to? What with is the best to save the thumbs to? So many more, but I'll keep it at this! I know it's a lot of questions, but it would really be handy if I could do this! Thanks in advance!
