UploadiFive 1.1.1 has been released which includes a small fix for added support on touch devices including iOS 6 devices.
Random file name
  • skyer2000skyer2000
    Here is the code to generate a random file name on each upload, to avoid overwriting previous files. ->

    File: upload_name.php
    [code=php]
    <?php<br />
    if (!empty($_FILES)) {
           $tempFile = $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'];
           $targetPath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $_GET['folder'] . '/';
       
           $ext = pathinfo($_FILES['Filedata']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION);  //figures out the extension
       
           $newFileName = md5($tempFile).'.'.$ext; //generates random filename, then adds the file extension
           $targetFile =  str_replace('//','/',$targetPath) . $newFileName;

           move_uploaded_file($tempFile,$targetFile);
    }

    if (    $newFileName)
       echo     $newFileName;
    else     // Required to trigger onComplete function on Mac OSX
           echo '1';

    ?>
    [/code]

    I figured out that you can set php highliting for the code block like so:
    [code=php]<?</span>php

    if     (!empty($_FILES)) {
       $tempFile = $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'];
       $targetPath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $_GET['folder'] . '/';
       
       $ext     = pathinfo($_FILES['Filedata']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION);  //figures out the extension
       
       $newFileName     = md5($tempFile).'.'.$ext; //generates random filename, then adds the file extension
       $targetFile =  str_replace('//','/',$targetPath) . $newFileName;

       move_uploaded_file($tempFile,$targetFile);
    }     [/code]

    instead of [code] you put [code=php]...for future reference...

    hi

    i'd like to share my way in generating names

    [code=php]$newFileName = md5(uniqid(rand().time(), true)) . substr($_FILES['Filedata']['name'], strrpos($_FILES['Filedata']['name'], ".")); [/code]

    good luck ;)

    if (!empty($_FILES)) {
    $tempFile = $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'];
    $targetPath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $_GET['folder'] . '/';
    $ext = pathinfo($_FILES['Filedata']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION); //figures out the extension

    $newFileName = md5($tempFile).'.'.$ext; //generates random filename, then adds the file extension
    $targetFile = str_replace('//','/',$targetPath) . $newFileName;

    // Uncomment the following line if you want to make the directory if it doesn't exist
    // mkdir(str_replace('//','/',$targetPath), 0755, true);
    //echo "$tempFile => $targetFile";
    move_uploaded_file($tempFile,$targetFile);

    hey it did not work for me until i took out the } at the end

    Just a little tip for people who may have used it and it has not worked.

    The quote overwrites what is currently your upload_name.php file.
