Question

On my website I let users upload images.

I save the images under some hashed (based on name + timestamp) name.

I store both the original name as the hashed name in the database.

I would like to display the image on my page using the original name.

CASE

• user uploads test.jpg
• image is saved as /img/6eabd22d35b4132cc58e4dff75e466cc1e444d93053ca80087b12ff620bd3451 on the server
• both original and hashed names are stored in database
• display the image on a page using the original name (<img src="/img/test.jpg" alt="" title="">) which actually is /img/6eabd22d35b4132cc58e4dff75e466cc1e444d93053ca80087b12ff620bd3451

Is this possible?

Answer 1

OK. What I wanted to do is simply not possible.
