Form Input File type and Database Value

Not sure if that was the best Title in the world but I hope this part gives you a clearer understanding of what my question is.

Basically I need to send a File using a Form to the folder "uploads" from page 1

I then go to page 2

I then need to then send the same file to the database from page 2

Is there a way on page 2 to define the Value as say Value="upload/"

?

I tried this way but it did not work.开发者_如何学编程

How can I make the value a file which is in a folder in my server

Or is there another way to do is like past the file in a POST to the next page ?

Put the name of the file in a $_SESSION variable, say $_SESSION['curfile']='myfile.ext'; When processing the 2nd page, get the file name from the $_SESSION and store it in the database.
