Local Files - Firefox

[rlhanson]

I have an upload form on my site, which will display either the image or file name on the form submission confirmation.
It works fine in IE but doesn't display anything when using Firefox. From what I understand, Firefox blocks local files as a security feature.

Here's my code for grabbing the uploaded file info:

 <?
$s_path = "incoming/";
 
....
 
for ($i = 1; $i < 4; $i++) { //cycle for small images
 $result = ProcessUploadedFile($i, true);
 if ($result !== true) {
  echo '&nbsp;';
 } else {
  echo 'Your file was uploaded successfully! You will also receive an e-mail confirmation of your successful file upload status for your records. </br>';
  echo "<br>";
  //Grabbing image info from the server
  $image = $_FILES["s_userfile1"]["name"];?>  

Displaying the file info:

 <?php
 
//if it's an image statement: 
echo '<img src="';
  echo '/';
  echo $s_path;
  echo $image;
  echo '"><br><br>';
 
//if it's not an image statement:
echo "We have received your file: <strong><font color='#FF0000'>";
    echo  $image;
  echo "</font></strong><br><br>[<a href='javascript:window.close();'>Close window</a>]";
?>  

Does anyone know a workaround or what I am doing wrong in the above code?

Thanks in advance!

Why not display it from your server since it was uploaded?

Wait .... I don't see a local file?
"incoming" is off your web root? ... and is where ProcessUploadedFile puts it? Did you look at the url in the page source? What does it look like? Does it work copying it into a browser?

Yes - that's why I can't figure out why it won't display in Firefox.
I'm actually calling the image name from the server, right?

in IE I see :


Your file was uploaded successfully! You will also receive an e-mail confirmation of your successful file upload status for your records.




In FF I do not see that text at all. Perhaps it was not uploaded successfully?

Stupid question, but are you verifying the image is there? Looking in your error log?

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access //incoming/dali-lahma.jpg on this server.

I don't know how! lol That's why I'm asking.


It is on the server.

Does your script give it the correct permissions after upload? Whats the error log say in cPanel when you call that file?

[rlhanson]

Where is the error log?

Its that big shiney button that says "error log"
