Title: c:/fakepath/filename uploading images (Solved)
Post by: pranky on 31.10.2017 15:39:20
Hello everyone, I am looking for the solution to this problem:
I upload a new download file, when I go to the TAB image to add the document cover the system returns the following line C:\fakepath\filename.jpg




I leave out to upload the image and the download is normally created.
I've tried with various image formats both from Chrome 61.0.3163.100 and Firefox 56.0.2.
Joomla 3.8.0 - jDownloads 3.2.56 - PHP 5.6

Excuse me but I do not understand what exactly is here the problem. Is the path to your PC folder wrong? Should it be empty?  ::)

Okay. I have now see what you mean. This is not a bug but a security feature from browsers. It hide the really path in javascripts but the function works proper.  ;)

It exist also options to deactivate this in your browser. Use Google to find this.
