I'm working on a registration form for a website, I'm trying to upload a photo to the server and pass the file path on to the database.

This is probably just a simple issue, as i'm quite the beginner to php and mysql. 

Here's my standard form, which we'll call **register.php**. I cut out all other input than the image.

```
<form name="reg" action="code_exec.php" onsubmit="return validateForm()" method="post">
    <input type="file" id="inputImage" Name="photo">
    <button class="btn btn-large btn-success" type="submit">Register</button>
</form>

```

This is the execution file, which we'll call **code\_exec.php**

```
<?php
session_start();
include('connection.php');

$fname = $_POST['fname'];
$lname = $_POST['lname'];
$mname = $_POST['mname'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$contact = $_POST['contact'];
$pic = $_POST['pic'];
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$skype = $_POST['skype'];
$email = $_POST['email'];

//This is the directory where images will be saved 
$target = "upload/"; 
$target = $target . basename( $_FILES['photo']['name']); 

//This gets all the other information from the form 
$pic = ($_FILES['photo']['name']); 

//Writes the photo to the server 
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name'], $target)) { 
    //Tells you if its all ok 
    echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). " has been uploaded, and your information has been added to the directory"; 
} else { 
    //Gives an error if its not 
    echo "Sorry, there was a problem uploading your file.";
} 

mysql_query("INSERT INTO member(fname, lname, gender, address, contact, picture, username, password, skype, email, photo)VALUES('$fname', '$lname', '$mname', '$address', '$contact', '$pic', '$username', '$password', '$skype', '$email', '$pic')");

header("location: index.php?remarks=success");
mysql_close($con);

?>

```

How do I find the path of the image file?
