this is an edited version of my previous question. My problem is that my file upload code is not working. It won't upload files to the server but saves the file name in the database. I have spent a long time trying to solve this with no luck. I am learning coding. I think is that the problem is in the structure of my page. Here is the code for the whole page. Could someone please point to me where I went wrong?
Here is my code:
<form name="form" method="post" onSubmit="return checkForm(this);">
<?php
if (!isset($submit)) {
mysql_connect('localhost', 'user', 'password!') or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("host_table") or die(mysql_error());
$id = $_GET[id];
$query2 = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE id='$id'";
$result2 = mysql_query ($query2) or die ('Could not run query: ' . mysql_error());
$info = mysql_fetch_array ($result2);
?>
