PHP将'../folder/file.php'转换为url

Question

So I'm working on a website currently on localhost. I'm testing an image uploader, and I have to generate an URL for the image to be displayed..

etc etc..
     // move the file to folder <- it works
    move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], '../../common/img/post-uploads/' . $name);

    // Generate response.
    $response = new StdClass;
    $response->link = MAINFOLDER . '/common/img/post-uploads/' . $name; // but I need an URL here..?:/
    echo stripslashes(json_encode($response));

As you see, when I move the uploaded file to path, it works like this "../../common/img/post-uploads"

but at the end, I would like to get an URL.. so the final diplayed image would be like

< img src="http://localhost/mysite/common/image/post-uploads/image.jpg">

is it possible somehow? like

$response->link = convertThisToURL('../../common/img/post-uploads/' . $name);

? :/

Answer 1

Since you show two ../ I would think that this item is outside of your domain. There isn't a way to do that unless the full link is inside the domain directory.

Per your comment below then answer then would be a symbolic link.

ln -s /localhost/mysite/common/img/post-uploads /localhost/mysite/images 

For example. then just post that nice new url without all that ../ stuff
