Issues with Image Upload Block

[peroosh-gattkins]

Scratching my head with this one... And hope that someone can point me in the right direction.

My instance of Sir Trevor is rendering fine on screen, and when attaching an image, it appears without problem. AJAX is then used to post the image data to my uploadImage.php endpoint, where I'm attempting to capture the image data, and do some resizing of the image.

However, when I call the AJAX file, the attachment array only contains the filename and UID, there is nothing being passed as file data:

$attachment Array ( [name] => rabc_bw.jpg [uid] => st-block-14-1387533592975-raw )

I've checked the documentation, have added in the Sir Trevor uploader extension script, have even set the form wrapper on the page itself to have an enctype of "multipart/form-data", but nothing appears to make a difference?

Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

Still looking for an answer to the above, and if none if forthcoming, need to make a decision soon on whether to drop Sir Trevor as an option from the site altogether (have a January launch date for the site I'm working on...)

Can anyone help?

Some questions:

1) What browser are you using. 2) Have you customised the image block or uploader script in any way?

The image upload block uses the file data api. your browser must be compatible with that feature. If not you could override the Image block to use a more compatible solution.

Are you sure that the PHP back end is working correctly and able to accept uploads from the file api?

Could you post some code samples?

That's a better answer @ninjabiscuit

@frecosse I'm thinking you are printing the $_POST var. For file uploads you'll need to use the $_FILES var.

Yup. What @raffij said

Hi guys, I'd been trying various combinations of $_FILES to get the uploaded file moved to a temporary folder... Finally got it working with:

$_FILES['attachment']['tmp_name']['file']

Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction - can now start the fun stuff of resizing the uploaded image for use on the website!
