PHP Programming Tips

Posts Tagged ‘uploading images’

I have built a website for a group and we will be needing images to be displayed in certain pages. At present, uploading images, whilst permitted, is bringing an internal error (“The upload directory (public) is missing and could not be created by the webserver.” whilst a PHP error is returned: “Warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]: Permission denied in {server root info I’ve deleted for security}/includes/GlobalFunctions.php on line 2012″)

Therefore, I’d like to show a test image that is ALREADY on the server at (for example) http://www.website.co.uk/wiki/images/image.jpg
Using the WIki code [[File:image.jpg|thumb]] doesn’t show the image, despite it supposedly being in the default wiki image directory… and changing the wiki code to [[File:http://website.co.uk/wiki/images/image.jpg|thumb]]

So my question is this: how, exactly, can you use wiki code to display an image with an Absolute URL? (ie not relative to the wiki software)

thanks in advance
