    <p>I've been trying to create a simple php file that will upload a single image to tumblr. An example is listed <a href="http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/api#api_write" rel="nofollow">here</a>, but it just won't work with images. Here is the code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php // Authorization info $tumblr_email = 'lol@something.com'; $tumblr_password = 'secret'; // Data for new record $post_type = 'photo'; //////////////////////THIS DOESN'T WORK///////////////////////////////// //$filename = "/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/1.jpeg"; //$handle = fopen($filename, "r"); //$post_data = fread($handle, filesize($filename)); //////////////////////NEITHER DOES THIS///////////////////////////////// //$post_data = "/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/1.jpg"; ///////////////////////////////NOR THIS///////////////////////////////// //$filename = "/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/1.jpeg"; //$post_data = fopen($filename, "r"); // Prepare POST request $request_data = http_build_query( array( 'email' =&gt; $tumblr_email, 'password' =&gt; $tumblr_password, 'type' =&gt; $post_type, 'data' =&gt; $post_data, 'generator' =&gt; 'testing tumblr API example' ) ); // Send the POST request (with cURL) $c = curl_init('http://www.tumblr.com/api/write'); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_POST, true); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $request_data); curl_setopt($c, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); $result = curl_exec($c); $status = curl_getinfo($c, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE); curl_close($c); // Check for success if ($status == 201) { echo "Success! The new post ID is $result.\n"; } else if ($status == 403) { echo 'Bad email or password'; } else { echo "Error: $result\n"; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>I am not that familiar with php/curl, so I have no idea what am I doing wrong. This is also written on tumblr.com:</p> <blockquote> <p>File uploads can be done in a data parameter where specified above. You may use either of the common encoding methods:</p> <p>1) multipart/form-data method, like a file upload box in a web form. Maximum size:</p> <p>...10 MB for photos...</p> <p>This is recommended since there's much less overhead.</p> <p>2) Normal POST method, in which the file's entire binary contents are URL-encoded like any other POST variable. Maximum size:</p> <p>...5 MB for photos...</p> </blockquote> <p>Thanks.</p>

    1. CODefine "Won't work". What happens? Also, *do* your images exceed the 5/10 MB limit?

    3. COOh, and a sample image is way smaller then 5MB. But the funny thing is, the script works when I supply it with the same image located on a remote server (http://...).

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.
