Tutorial: How to make an Image Upload and Thumbnailer Script PHP

5. The last section to this tutorial. After the html form on the same page thumbs.html i added this:

	<img src="&lt;?php echo 'thumbs/'.$filename; ?&gt;" alt="" />
	Link:
<input type="text" value="&lt;?php echo $urltothumbs.$filename; ?&gt;" />

What this does is see if the variable $success is a 1 or a 0; if it is true or false. If it is true, that means the file creation worked and we can display it. So what it does it makes a html img placeholder with the filename in the source. This shows the image on the page nicely. Next up is a simple text field where people can copy the uploaded image’s link and give it to friends.

Either use a database to reference to the files, or write a directory listing script! Plenty of them out there! My other tutorial shows you how to insert into a database also! Thank you
