Just create an paypal account and create there an button for you website, then they provide the code for the button, easy, copy and paste :P

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 1:35am

i know that :p but when user pay how will upload process start do you have any code or demo so plzz provide it

2 solutions

Solution 1

If you upload an image with AJAX, you need to return the URL to that image and then insert an img tag pointing to that URL, assuming you saved to the file system.

how ?? do you have code .. plzz provide me some small demo or source code ... but bro i dont want to assume i want to attach the uploaded image automatically to img tag

Christian Graus 21-Jan-14 2:37am

How else did you expect to display it ? Your subject line was confusing. You want to do a paypal step inbetween, that was not clear. Showing an image after you upload it, is trivial. You will need to look at the Paypal API if you intend on going through Paypal in the middle of that process.

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 3:19am

bro 1-> step user will select image from there computer ok then image will upload or server directory 2-> then user will click on paypal buynow button after this payment user will get next button or else image will display if user not pay the amont the process will cancel and image will not display... that all if its confusing let we talk only about display image automatically .... or do you have any better way or simple way then plzz tell me it will great for me

Christian Graus 21-Jan-14 3:22am

Displaying the image automatically is still trivial. Step 1 -> upload image. Step 2 -> add img tag pointing to image file to your HTML. But, if you want to do stuff that involves the Paypal API, then you have to read their docs to see what they support. If your header had been clear, I would not have answered, I know nothing about paypal integration

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 3:29am

how ..? i want to pointing the image file name to image tag automatically .... do you have any demo of this or please provide me source code

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 3:30am

christain graus send me your email id i will send you code of upload image to directory via php .. right now its greatly working on local host

Christian Graus 21-Jan-14 3:38am

You can post your code here, and everyone can help. Just edit your post.

Two seconds with google got me this:

https://forum.jquery.com/topic/how-to-change-image-src-path

That's how to set the src of an img tag using jquery

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 5:04am

ok i have edit code.. check it.... i have check your link and i got this
$('.changesrc').each(function(){
//Change the src of each img
$(this).attr('src', 'images/alt/imagename.jpg'); (uploaded image )
});

<img class="changesrc" src="images/es/step1green.gif">

ok now what when user upload new image in directory images/es/random.gif random.gif is image file name so this function will change the path ? like this <img class="changesrc" src="images/es/random.gif">
??
i think we have to modify this code ? for getting imagename then send to jquery function and then send to img src = " "

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 5:08am

but why we need jquery bro ?? it can be simple done by php ?? just we need to get imagefile name which was uploaded and put the declare variable into img src tag ... but the code which i past in question bar it work like this like the image name wall.jpg so it change in directory where the uploaded image save into like this 1390298757-wall.jpg

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 5:44am

right now i have make my profile picture in codeproject when there was no image the code was like this
<img id="ctl00_MC_Prof_MemberImage" class="padded-top" style="height:114px;width:85px;border-width:0px;" src=
"/script/Membership/Images/member_unknown.gif"></img>

after uploading image
<img id="ctl00_MC_Prof_MemberImage" class="padded-top" style="border-width:0px;" src="http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/ProfileImages/{d9491f19-c1b2-41ab-ae36-fac8b875311e}.jpg"></img>

that i want man

C0DE_007 21-Jan-14 13:38pm

i think i got the solution guyzz .. !! <img src="" >

$image = $_FILES["file"]["name"];
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],"../upload/$image");
$query = "INSERT INTO images VALUES('','$image')";

i think it will work :p now paypal problem ? :p

Christian Graus 21-Jan-14 13:44pm

Um.... If the only column in your database table is the image, then how will you identify the image down the track ? Even if there's an id and you grab the last image, if it's never used again, then why store it in a DB ? You need to stop and think about this. Will your site never have two users at once ?

Christian Graus 21-Jan-14 13:39pm

you don't NEED jquery, but do you REALLY want your clients to do a round trip to the server ? And if you were doing on the server, it's so trivial that it's not worth asking about.

Ultimately, you've posted a ton of stuff that makes no sense to me. Is this image only shown after the Paypal transaction, or is it kept permanently ? If the latter, then just put it in the right place. Actually, in general, storing it in a known location for a user is the way to know where it is when the paypal transaction ends.

C0DE_007 22-Jan-14 3:14am

permanently bro ... i think i will different id for different for different img box .. as i said if you have any better way or any simple way so plzz tell me .... and what about the code it iwll not display the image permanently ??

C0DE_007 22-Jan-14 3:17am

i want to display the image permanently after payment ..... and your link https://forum.jquery.com/topic/how-to-change-image-src-path not work for me ... bro ... and is there any problem in that php code ??

Christian Graus 22-Jan-14 16:32pm

I don't do PHP, it's really ugly and outdated. This started as an AJAX question. I think you need to think clearly about what you want, and ask again. Don't say things like 'it's not working', it DOES work. Say things that are specific, posting your code, and telling us which bit you can't work out how to do. I can't answer 'it's not working' except to tell you that that code DOES work. You just need to use it right

How to add paypal payment function in between upload - display image ??

Christian Graus 22-Jan-14 16:33pm

FWIW, I am in Australia, I am in bed when you flood this question with additional questions.

To do that, you would store the image somewhere in the file system or your DB, so that when you redirect to a page after the payment, you'd pick up the image and use it, because it was in a location where you'd know that's what it was.

C0DE_007 23-Jan-14 1:31am

for ex:- /upload/users/Images/ .jpg this is path where uploaded image store in DB okk... now the the redirect page is www.example.com/upload.php .... so when payment is done i will copy on upload.php link in paypal button .. when we make paypal button it ask for after payment plz enter redirect page link... so i will put .. www.example.com/upload.php ??? is ok and bro are you asking to or or what ?? i am saying if you have better solution then tell me ?

Christian Graus 23-Jan-14 2:11am

I've told you quite a few times now. You need to store it somewhere with a name that identifies who is logged on, so you know what image to load. I've sure given you a lot of help, given that you marked someone else as having given the correct answer....

C0DE_007 31-Jan-14 12:50pm

@Christian Graus here is the example = > if user select xyz.mp3 i have put re direct link in paypal name { www.example.com/download_process_start.php } after payment pay pal will re direct this link .... but how the link will cache the song name ?? which item is selected by user ? is it in .mp3 or .apk or in .exe ?? how ?? and link this if user want to upload the file <form action="process.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="file" /><br /> <input type="submit" name="submit" /> </form> so how will upload_process.php start will i was put it in paypal ? how the link will cache the file name etc ??

Christian Graus 31-Jan-14 15:05pm

Wow - this is still dragging on ? If you stored it in the session, it would still be there when you came back from paypay, I believe. If not, you'd have a DB column for the logged in user with the last file they selected, so that you could pull it out when you had a session under them again. I think the session is the main thing that will do what you want, though.

C0DE_007 1-Feb-14 3:05am

but i will post action = " upload.php " and the upload.php file put it in paypal button re direct option ... ? how to stored in the session.. any example sir plzz demo ?? so it doesn't matter there is paypal in between this.... the link whicj i provided in re-direct link will catch file name etc... ok but there is no logged user .... user do not required to log in to upload the file or download the file ... !! i think logged in user is not compulsory right ?? and if it's compulsory then plzz tell me any other way.... and thank youuuuu bro thankk you sooo much :)

Christian Graus 1-Feb-14 4:29am

Even if someone is not logged in, there is still a session. When someone logs in, you store it in the session b/c the session exists BEFORE they log in.

Seriously, how long have you been working on this ?

C0DE_007 1-Feb-14 10:14am

log in ?? bro there is not log in option there .... it just user visit the site if he/she like to upload or download he will select that file or browse file to upload ... then buynow button will be show after payment .... so plzz bro can u show me some code or demo .. plzz and thank u once again i got the answer = session .... !! how long i have been working .. hmmm 2-4 week :p

C0DE_007 1-Feb-14 10:18am

plzz tell me okk... in pay then upload... like
<form action="process.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="file" /><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" />
</form>

user will select file from their computer then... user have to submit to file name ... how to add paypal button in submit so the uploading file name will also cache and it will store in session and then after payment re-direct link - process.php start !!

Christian Graus 1-Feb-14 17:22pm

I asked a group of my friends who do PHP to look at this. They looked at it and told me you have no idea what you're doing and are beyond help. They also suggested what I've already told you to do ( store it in the session ). Sorry, I'm not replying any more. It's clear you have no idea what you're doing, to the point that you are unable to do anything with help when it's offered to you. I'm not trying to be rude, I'm just telling you why I'm not going to reply any more. I've tried very hard to help you. You should pay someone to do this work for you.

Solution 2

This is code for getting image file name and display after uploading to directory

<img src="<?php echo "../upload/$image" ?>" >

$image = $_FILES["file"]["name"]; move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],"../upload/$image"); $query = "INSERT INTO images VALUES('','$image')";
