<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" >

</head>
<body>
<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="navbar-header">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">PHP - Image Uploading with Form JS Example</a>
</div>
</div>
</nav>
<div class="container">
<form action="imageuploadpro.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" class="form-horizontal" method="post">
<div class="preview"></div>
<input type="file" name="image" class="form-control" style="width:30%" />

<?php
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'root');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'root');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'learn');
$db = mysqli_connect(DB_SERVER,DB_USERNAME,DB_PASSWORD,DB_DATABASE);
if(isset($_POST) && !empty($_FILES['image']['name'])){
$name = $_FILES['image']['name'];
list($txt, $ext) = explode(".", $name);
$image_name = time().".".$ext;
$tmp = $_FILES['image']['tmp_name'];
if(move_uploaded_file($tmp, 'upload/'.$image_name)){
mysqli_query($db,"INSERT INTO items (title)
VALUES ('".$image_name."')");
echo "<img width='200px' src='upload/".$image_name."' class='preview'>";
}else{
echo "image uploading failed";
}
}
?>
