A HTML form should be build before uploading the file. The following HTML code is used for selecting the file that is to be uploaded. The type attribute of input must be “file”.

<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploader.php" method="POST">

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000" />

Choose a file to upload: <input name="uploadedfile" type="file" /><br />

<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />

</form>

At the time of executing uploader.php, the uploaded file will be stored in a temporary storage are on the webserver. An associative array $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name'] is used for uploading. The ‘name’ is the original file that is to be uploaded. Another associative array $_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'] is used for placing the uploaded file in a temporary location on the server and the file should be empty and should exist with the tmp_name.

The following code snippet is used for uploading the file.

$target_path = "uploads/"; // the target location of the file

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) 

{

       echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']). 

        " has been uploaded";

}

else

{

      echo “There was an error while uploading the file”;

}

The function move_uploaded_file()is used to place the source file into the destination folder, which resides on the server.

If the uploading is successful, the message “The file filename has been uploaded. Otherwise the error message “There was an error while uploading the file” would be displayed.

Reserved words are words that cannot be used as object or variable names in a Java program because they're already used by the syntax of the Java programming language.

Java reserved words are keywords that are reserved by Java functions or other uses that cannot be used as identifiers (e.g., variable names, function names, class names).

If a reserved word was used as a variable you would get an error or unexpected result.

Examples : Int, Long, Abstract, Class, Break, Catch, Case, Public, Static, Void,...

An Android Intent is an abstract description of an operation to be performed. It can be used with startActivity to launch an Activity, broadcastIntent to send it to any interested BroadcastReceiver components, and startService(Intent) or bindService(Intent, ServiceConnection, int) to communicate with a background Service.The intent itself, an Intent object, is a passive data structure holding an abstract description of an operation to be performed.
Android provides many ways of storing data of an application. One of this way is called Shared Preferences. Shared Preferences allow you to save and retrieve data in the form of key,value pair.

In order to use shared preferences, you have to call a method getSharedPreferences() that returns a SharedPreference instance pointing to the file that contains the values of preferences.

User names and passwords in PHP can be encrypted using md5 function.

MD5 function calculates the md5 hash of a string. It is basically used for encryption. It is also used for digital signature applications, where a large file must be "compressed" in a secure manner.

Example:

Md5($str);

Crypt() function can also be used to encrypt a string,. It used MD5, DES or blow fish algorithms for encryption.

Syntax:

Crypt(str, salt)

Salt is an optional parameter used to increase the number of characters encoded, to make the encoding more secure
