have your script parse the path-file string to use only what comes after the
last slash ("/").

Subject: [thelist] Uploading file names to a database


I'm building a UI for myself that will allow me to add images from my local
computer to the database on my server.  I am using an <input="text"
name="image"> form field and then submitting the information to an action
page which has an INSERT statement.  The problem is that the input value
includes the entire path.  Is there anyway to only upload the file name
itself; ie. image.jpg ?

TIA

Aaron
