I am a php programmer, but new to zend framework.
I want to upload image, create medium and small(thubmnail) image on fly, I passed a couple of hours searching for a php library [ compatible with zend ] that can make my tasks easy. I dont want to write the code that already exists. thanks for any help.
I want also to know wether Zend_GData can be used to upload files to my server and not on google's. If tried that hack, please tell me how you did it.
any link, or suggestion is welcome. thanks and have a great day.
To upload I use:
http://www.uploadify.com/
To manipulate images (resize, crop, lots of stuff) I use GD wich is often installed with php.
http://php.net/manual/en/book.image.php
I also use http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/ and its real easy to use.
With all that you should be set.

I've been playing around with making a draftjs plugin that lets the user paste in mixed text&image content from websites and have images auto-uploaded to the server. I've quickly come to the realization that it's not easy, simply because of how many different sites use different kinds of counter-measures for copy/pasting images. Standard image tags in page content are no problem - easily grab the src and handle the file upload from the url. However, many sites use all kinds of trickery to make this a pain. For example, some will only serve small thumbnails, requiring a GET request on the image with a hash key in order to retrieve a larger version. Others somehow seem to corrupt the image so that it's unreadable by the time it's been retrieved. Others still play with weird embed tags to mess with draftjs' image blocks.
But then I open up a Google Docs file, and find that when I copy any images into that from a website, there's never any troubles whatsoever. All the problematic websites that I'm finding myself having to write specific methods for retrieving from seem to be handled by Google Docs with ease.
Am I using completely the wrong approach by trying to retrieve images from a url? Does Google use a far superior approach (yes, I presume) - in which case, does anyone have any idea what that approach might be?
I'm using jQuery fileupload on a site to upload a single file for processing. I've got a simple upload working based on the Basic Plus demo, but would like to upload files to a given path and filename on the server (independent of the filename on the client machine). It seems like this should be straightforward, but I'm having problems figuring it out or finding resources. Is this possible in jQuery fileupload? If so, can anybody point me in the right direction for how?
Thanks for your time!
Answered? Found some helpful information here on changing the filename of uploads.
I have a question about textboxes or forms. I don't have any experience with them.
I would like to have a textbox/form where the user can type/copy text too.
There should be a save button and the saved text should be loaded and be editable again.
This isn't an internet application, so I don't need to specify a database of users.
Searching the web got me a lot of partial asp/.net/php solutions. I don't really know much of these.
My question is, would this be possible? And where should I start?
Thanx
I would use PHP for this, if you're unfamiliar there are some great learning resources at W3 Schools PHP tutuorial as well as the documentation at PHP.net you'll want to write an HTML form that submits to a php script. In this script you can save text to a file using the fwrite() function and load saved text using fopen(). Definitely have a look through the w3 Schools php guide if you're new to this.
I noticed the functionality on some PDF viewer for iOS. You can actually turn phone in server and upload files there from a normal computer. I found HTTP server implementation from iOS on Google site, so implementing upload accepting functionality isn't a big deal for me. However I would like to save couple hours of my time, so if somebody could point me to ready to use solutions in sources, I will own you a bottle of your favorite beer.
It looks like I will have an extra beer this weekend. No I didn't create one, but i found one

Actually I found bunch of them, but this one seems has upload handling code which was my goal. If somebody found a better server solution, then do not hesitate to share with me.
I'm writing an iPhone app which downloads a tar-gzipped file from a Webserver, then needs to unarchive this file so that it can be copied into the app's Documents folder.
I'm using tar/gzip because I want to download a whole bunch of small files in one HTTP request, to make everything nice and fast.
I've investigated solutions like http://www.feep.net/libtar/, but as a C/Objective-C newb, I can't get any of them to compile for the iPhone platform.
(I felt like I should just be able to do a system call to "tar -zxvf myfile.tar.gz", but it would appear it's not that easy!)
So is there a simple way to just un-tar a file on the iPhone? Or am I going about this all wrong, and is there a better way to do this?
Thanks in advance!

This blog post should help you:

EDIT: Google cache version of the same page which actually links to a forum post here which links to a Google Code project here, containing some code which implements unzipping on iOS.
Here is a light untar library for iOS : https://github.com/mhausherr/Light-Untar-for-iOS

Hope this helps,

I took a different approach by building libarchive and bz2lib as a static library for iOS. You can find it here:
