Help Uploading files in Crono Forms for Joomla 1.5

What am I doing wrong? I cannot get files to upload at all. I know to look under the "uploads" directory in "com_chronocontact" but nothing is there. I also have file permissions set correct. Below is my code and settings.

<input name='Photo_of_Director' type='file' class='inputtext'>

Hi Yaholo,

That all looks OK to me - can you post a link to the form please?

Hi Yaholo,

Hmmm, that looks good too . . . scratches head . . .

Perhaps Max has a bright idea?

Hi,

There is a bug in the J1.5 version, line 530 at chronocontact.php:

Please make it :

$upload_path = JPATH_BASE.'/components/com_chronocontact/upload/';

This will do it🙂

Cheers

Max

Hi Max set the line, instead of:
$upload_path = $mosConfig_absolute_path.'/components/com_chronocontact/upload/';


Files are uploaded fine, in the folder, but there's no track of the filename in the record of the sql table...
I mean the field matched to field type="file" is empty...

Why? Scratching head as well...

The fix worked! Thank you very much.

Thanks Yaholo, gg4j:

In order to have file name stored you will need to edit the autogenerated code alittle, find the $_POST['file_field_name'] and replace it with $_FILES['file_field_name']['name']

Cheers
