How can I make an upload form, where people upload a song, after a paypal payment is processed, and when they press the upload button,

The song is uploaded on my godaddy web host account.

As you can see here:
http://www.audiophd.com/payment.php



I am trying to implement step 2.
STEP 2. Once payment is processed, you will receive an e-mail with details on uploading your songs on our server.



Right now I'm doing an ugly method but this is what it looks like

Please do not laugh.

Thank you.

Why not let them upload a song, but not store it unless they have paid? That would make more sense to me.

Yes sir, that is what I'm trying to do. How I can let them upload a song as easy as possible. i wanted to make a form to allow them to do that.
Do you know how to make a form to do that?

Hi there,

You could do it with the following, first thing you'll need to do is setup a new database with the following variables, just paste this text in to your sql query section in PHPmyADMIN...

PHP Code:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
-- ----------------------------
-- Table structure for musicuploads
-- ----------------------------
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `musicuploads`;
CREATE TABLE `musicuploads` (
  `id` bigint(3) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `artistname` varchar(200) NOT NULL default '',
  `songname` varchar(200) default NULL,
  `audio` text,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=712 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

-- ----------------------------
-- Records 
-- ---------------------------- 


Then you'll need the to create a new file called uploadsong.php or whatever you wish... put this content in it..

PHP Code:

<? // configuration



$rs_dbuser="username"; //your username
$rs_dbpass="password"; //your password

  //////////////////////////
 // MySQL SERVER DETAILS //
//////////////////////////

$rs_dbname="databasename"; //name of your database
$rs_dbhost="localhost"; //address to your db (default is localhost)
$rs_dbport="3306"; //3306 is default


$rs_domain="http://www.yourdomain.com/"; //full url without trailing slash

?>




<?php
// if we click post
if(isset($_POST['add']))
{

    
        
        
        $path_big =  "/var/yourserverpath/httpdocs/audio"; //your server path to the upload directory you wish to use
        
        

        $extlimit = "yes"; 
        
        $limitedext = array(".mp3",".wav",".wma","");
        
        
        $file_type = $_FILES['vAudio']['type'];
        $file_name = $_FILES['vAudio']['name'];
        $file_size = $_FILES['vAudio']['size'];
        $file_tmp = $_FILES['vAudio']['tmp_name'];

        
        if(!is_uploaded_file($file_tmp)){

        }
     
       $ext = strrchr($file_name,'.');
       $ext = strtolower($ext);
       
       if (($extlimit == "yes") && (!in_array($ext,$limitedext))) {
          echo "Wrong file extension.  <br>--<a href=\"$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]\">back</a>";
          exit();
       }
       
       $getExt = explode ('.', $file_name);
       $file_ext = $getExt[count($getExt)-1];

     
       $rand_name = md5(time());
       $rand_name= rand(0,999999999);
     

    
       
      
           
           
      

    
        move_uploaded_file ($file_tmp, "$path_big/$rand_name.$file_ext");
        


$conn = mysql_connect($rs_dbhost, $rs_dbuser, $rs_dbpass) or die 
        ('Error connecting to mysql');
        @mysql_select_db($rs_dbname) or die 
        ('Can\'t find database');
        
// then get data from the form
$artistname = $_POST['artistname'];
$songname = $_POST['songname'];
$audio = $_POST['vAudio'];

// replace all ' with \' so mysql doesn't puke
$bad = array("'","%");
$good = array("&acute;","&#37");



// insert it into the db

$query = "INSERT INTO musicuploads (artistname, songname, audio) VALUES ('$artistname','$songname','$rand_name.$file_ext')";
mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); 


mysql_close($conn);


echo "
Your song was added to the database...
";
}
else
{
?>

Add Song

Obviously you can add your own styling to this, but it'll do the job nicely

If you can't get it working, give me a shout and I'll troubleshoot for you.

Hey brother Andy why are you such a genuine and nice guy? We need more people like you. I also want to thank the person who contacted me Chris, Thanks Chris for the uploadthingy.com help. I checked out the site, and I don't mean to be a cheap guy but the economy is so bad, $9.00 is a lot of money. So I wanted to take an easy way out.

Hi bro I'm not sure if I'm doing this right. But here are my steps.

I named the pictures according to their steps. So 1.jpg is step one, 2.jpg is step two and so on.

First step I went into my phpadmin and typed songuploader and pressed create.






My second step I click the SQL tab and copy and pasted the code you provided and clicked GO.




My third step it said it successfully executed.




My fourth step I created an upload.php and copy and pasted the code you gave me, and I changed the part where it said:

$rs_domain="http://www.audiophd.com"; //full url without trailing slash
$path_big = "C:/wamp/www/audiophd/uploader"; //your server path to the upload directory you wish to use

$limitedext = array(".mp3",".wav",".aiff","");

These are the changes I made, left everything as is.
Then I entered song and artist name, and browsed for an mp3, and after pressing upload this is what I receive.





Thanks bro for helping.

Hi there,
You musn't have entered your database settings correctly, ensure that your database is located at localhost

You need to update all the information in red below...

PHP Code:

$rs_dbuser="username"; //your username
$rs_dbpass="password"; //your password

  //////////////////////////
 // MySQL SERVER DETAILS //
//////////////////////////

$rs_dbname="databasename"; //name of your database
$rs_dbhost="localhost"; //address to your db (default is localhost)
$rs_dbport="3306"; //3306 is default 


Thanks,
Andy

Big Andy,

If I didn't apply a password before I installed wamp, do I just make it

$rs_dbpass=""; //your password

?

Can anyone help me out with this one. i'm still trying to figure this out. Thank you so much.

I see there are different services where you have to pay to have their upload form for u, for a monthly fee, but I feel as though it is very unnecessary, wouldn't you agree?
