    <p>You might want to take a look at the upload section of the PHP manual : <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Handling file uploads</a> ; it would probably be a good start ;-)</p> <p>For instance, you might see that the file's informations are store in <code>$_FILES</code>, and not in <code>$_POST</code> (see <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.post-method.php" rel="nofollow noreferrer">POST method uploads</a>) -- at least, considering your example, I suppose you are searching for the file in <code>$_POST</code>, and not <code>$_FILES</code>.</p> <p>in your case, considering the input field is named "<code>binFile</code>", you'd probably want to use <a href="http://php.net/var_dump" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>var_dump</code></a> <em>(or any equivalent)</em> on <code>$_FILEs['binFile']</code>, to see what's inside ;-)</p> <p>Then, you can use <a href="http://php.net/is_uploaded_file" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>is_uploaded_file</code></a> and <a href="http://php.net/move_uploaded_file" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>move_uploaded_file</code></a> to work with the file itself.</p> <p><br> Then, are you sure you want to store the file's content into the Database, and not on disk, only storing into DB the path to the file ?</p> <p>About that, you can take a look at this question and its answers : <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3748/storing-images-in-db-yea-or-nay">Storing Images in DB - Yea or Nay?</a> -- it's not specific to PHP, but the ideas should still be true.</p> <p>Maybe <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/186656/where-to-store-uploaded-files-sound-pictures-and-video">Where to store uploaded files (sound, pictures and video)</a> could help too ;-) <br>Same about <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/325126/storing-a-small-number-of-images-blob-or-fs">Storing a small number of images: blob or fs?</a>, and/or <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/561447/store-pictures-as-files-or-in-the-database-for-a-web-app">Store pictures as files or in the database for a web app?</a></p>

    1. COThanks a lot Pascal! :) Yes, I am sure about it that i want to store in the DB and not in FS as I have to maintain mapping certain mappings between users and the files uploaded by them w.r.t. a parameter. Maintaining directory structure will be tough and tedious while DB solves my problem itself.

    3. COHi Pascal, I am now able to insert files in the DB, but files > 1MB in size are not getting inserted in the DB. I am using a LONGBLOB as the data type of the column in which I save the file. Can you please help me out? Regards, Mayank.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
