move_uploaded_file($_FILES["image"]["tmp_name"],"/hi/".$_FILES["image"]["name"]);

//insert the values in database
$sqlin=mysql_query("insert into add_item(item_page,item_type,item_pos,item_size,item,item_heading,item_content,   	item_sale_price,item_regular_price,item_catagory) values('$loc','$item_type','$pos','$item_size','$image','$item_heading','$item_content','$item_sale_price','$item_regular_price','$item_catagory')");
/*echo

Formatted code for better readability. Use PRE tags to format code part.

OK. There's your code. Now what is the problem? What error messages do you get? Where - browser, server error log? We need to know what goes wrong before we can suggest a fix.

Solution 1

The uploading of images to the database increases the size of the database where the images are of large size.
So my suggestion is just store the path of the image in the database and upload it to some of your web folder and make secure it.
