Hi,
I'm making a Facebook application that can generate images to
user's
albums. To publish a story a thumbnail of this image is stored
on my
server. Since this server currently is very limited I want to be
able
to clean these thumbnails pretty often.
To not get broken links in older facebook stories the address to
the
thumbnail is a php script that checks if the thumbnail is
available
and returns it, or otherwise returns a default thumbnail.
I have solved this using the following code:
$tImage = $_GET['i'];
$tURL = upload/$tImage.jpg;
if(!($fp=fopen($tURL,rb))){
header(Location: thumb.jpg);
}else{
header(Location: upload/$tImage.jpg);
fclose($fp);
}
My question is if it would be better to have a mysql database with
information about the thumbnail and check if the image is there,
instead of checking if the image file can be loaded? What is the
most
optimized approach if I start to gain traffic?
Thanks,
/Karl
I think checking for the existence of a file is probably going to
be the
quicker approach. Unless you have a server with loads of RAM and
your DB
is very small, it's unlikely your DB will exist entirely in
memory, so
you will at some point have to access the files that the DB uses,
even
though this is done by the server automatically.
On another note, I would try to sanitise that $_GET variable a
bit, as
it could lead to issues down the line later. Maybe limit the
string to
patterns you expect for an image URL.
Thanks,
Ash

Might be quicker to do with a .htaccess file - you can avoid
loading php at all.
Regards
Peter
PHP can do things that .htaccess can't, like verify a specific ID
has access to an image, etc.
I must've missed the part in the code where the ID was checked ...
Nope, still can't find it.

It wasn't in the example, but generally I've found the only reason
someone ever thinks of doing something like this rather than
directly link to the image is for some sort of validation reason. I
assumed it was a slimmed-down code sample that only showed us what
we needed.
Ahh, I see. I assumed the OP would have told us if that was the case -
I prefer answering the stated questions instead of guessing at what
they are.

Your script can't find the attachment.zip file. As you're using a
relative path to it, it should be in the same directory as your php
script, or somewhere directly in the path environment variable.
Also, make sure that the file has read properties set to allow Apache to
read it.

Thank you for your response and I'm sorry for the delay. I'm not sure I
understand your answer. I tried changing the 'attahcment.zip' to
$attachment, even creating a temp folder with reference to the path, however
it does not seem to work.
Perhaps you could explain a little further?
Again, thank you for your response.

Consider using something like phpmailer to handle the emails. Makes
attaching things really simple.
