Can someone please provide me with some code for a field on a page that I can copy a picture to ("drag and drop" or "copy and paste") ready for writing to a database.

That would be nice but I tyhink you're going to have to do

[html]
<form>
<input type="file" name="upload_me" />
<input type="submit" value="Upload a Picture" />
</form>
[\html]
It's very simplistic and you will have to process the submitted form data using a scripting language.

I would use PHP and it's built-in filesystem functions You can learn all about it here.

hint look up move_uploaded_file() or is_uploaded_file()

Hi Skorch,

Thanks for that, greatly appreciated.

Some one else told me that I should not be storing images in a DB (MySQL) as it is too slow. I should just store an address of the image. This could be cumbersome. What are your thoughts?
