Hi

its never advisible to put the image into the db only the path of that
image will be stored in the db…if you store the whole image into the db
then the db size will be very large…and its not the best thing to
do…So store only the path and not the image…

Thanks

Let me Explain You How To Upload File into Database :

In This Case we have table called “boxes” for saving your file and Model
name Boxe

Column Names ==>> file_name | file_data | file_content
Type Data ==>> string | blod | string

CONTROLLER

def save_file

if params[:upload] != nil
if params[:upload][‘file’].size > 1
@warez = Box.new(params[:upload])
@warez.file_name = params[:upload][‘file’].original_filename
@warez.file_data = params[:upload][‘file’].read
@warez.file_content = params[:upload][‘file’].content_type.chomp
@warez.save
end
end

end

def download_file
@download_warez = Box.find(params[:id])
send_data(@download_warez.file_data,
:filename => @download_warez.file_name,
:type => @download_warez.file_type)
end

VIEW

<% form_tag ({:action => “save_file”}, {:multipart => true}) do %>
<%= file_field “upload”, “file” %>
<%= submit_tag “Upload” %>
<% end %>
<%= end_form_tag %>

Correction at :

def download_file
…
:type => @download_warez.file_type)

The correct is :
:type => @download_warez.file_content)

and the model name not Boxe but Box.

magically.
