Image upload and rename

[richcleverley]

Hi all,

I think I am having one of those Friday moments, and just can't work out what to do here.

I have a form which posts image files up to a script. I want to be able to rename these files so they are tied to a certain record in a database. The format of the new file name will be like this: v101.jpg where v is a value set by me, 1 will be a identifier to the user taken from the database and 01 will be the number of photo. The user actually uploads 5 images so for user 1 there will be these files. The _ is just a seperator to split the user and image name from each other.

v1_01.jpg
v1_02.jpg
v1_03.jpg
v1_04.jpg
v1_05.jpg

I have tried to do the rename but it just doesn't work.

Here is the code I use to upload the image (this does it with the original file name:

//uploads submitted pictures to folders and creates thumbnail
$picturearray[0]=$_FILES['picture1'];
$picturearray[1]=$_FILES['picture2'];
$picturearray[2]=$_FILES['picture3'];
$picturearray[3]=$_FILES['picture4'];
$picturearray[4]=$_files['picture5'];
$piccount=0;
while ($piccount <=4){
	
$idir = "files/"; // Path To Images Directory
$tdir = "files/thumbs/"; // Path To Thumbnails Directory
$twidth = "125"; // Maximum Width For Thumbnail Images
$theight = "100"; // Maximum Height For Thumbnail Images
$url = $picturearray [$piccount]['name'];
// Set $url To Equal The Filename For Later Use
if ($picturearray [$piccount]['type'] == "image/jpg" || $picturearray [$piccount]['type']
  == "image/jpeg" || $picturearray [$piccount]['type'] == "image/pjpeg")
  {
  $file_ext = strrchr($picturearray [$piccount]['name'], '.');
  // Get The File Extention In The Format Of , For Instance, .jpg, .gif or .php
  $copy = copy($picturearray [$piccount]['tmp_name'], "$idir".$picturearray [$piccount]['name'
  ]); // Move Image From Temporary Location To Permanent Location
  if ($copy)
    {
    //If The Script Was Able To Copy The Image To Its Permanent Location
    print'Image uploaded successfully.<br />';
    // Was Able To Successfully Upload Image
    $simg = imagecreatefromjpeg("$idir".$url);
    // Make A New Temporary Image To Create The Thumbanil From
    $currwidth = imagesx($simg); 
	// Current Image Width
    $currheight = imagesy($simg); 
	// Current Image Height
    if ($currheight > $currwidth)
      {
      //If Height Is Greater Than Width
      $zoom = $twidth / $currheight; 
	  // Length Ratio For Width
      $newheight = $theight; 
	  // Height Is Equal To Max Height
      $newwidth = $currwidth * $zoom; 
	  // Creates The New Width
      }
    else
      {
      // Otherwise, Assume Width Is Greater Than Height (Will Produce Same Result If Width Is Equal To Height)
      $zoom = $twidth / $currwidth; // Length Ratio For Height
      $newwidth = $twidth; // Width Is Equal To Max Width
      $newheight = $currheight * $zoom; // Creates The New Height
      }
    $dimg = imagecreate($newwidth, $newheight); // Make New Image For Thumbnail
    imagetruecolortopalette($simg, false, 256); // Create New Color Pallete
    $palsize = ImageColorsTotal($simg);
    for ($i = 0; $i < $palsize; $i++)
      {
      // Counting Colors In The Image
      $colors = ImageColorsForIndex($simg, $i); // Number Of Colors Used
      ImageColorAllocate($dimg, $colors['red'], $colors['green'],
        $colors['blue']);
      // Tell The Server What Colors This Image Will Use
      }
    imagecopyresized($dimg, $simg, 0, 0, 0, 0, $newwidth, $newheight,
      $currwidth, $currheight);
      // Copy Resized Image To The New Image (So We Can Save It)
    imagejpeg($dimg, "$tdir".$url); // Saving The Image
    imagedestroy($simg); // Destroying The Temporary Image
    imagedestroy($dimg); // Destroying The Other Temporary Image
    print'Image thumbnail created successfully.'; // Resize successful
    }
  else
    {
    print'<font color="#FF0000">ERROR: Unable to upload image.</font>';
    // Error Message If Upload Failed
    }
  }
else
  {
  print '<font color="#FF0000">ERROR: Wrong filetype (has to be a .jpg or .jpeg.
      Yours is '; // Error Message If Filetype Is Wrong
  print $file_ext; // Show The Invalid File's Extention
  print'.</font>';
}
$piccount++;
}

As you will notice I also create a thumbnail so I would need this to have the new name too.

I'm sure that when someone points out how to do this I am going to be hitting myself, but I just can't work it out.

Any ideas?

It's all right now. I knew it must be a Friday thing.

Sorted it now.
