Question

Why does this not show the changes after submit? The page has to be refreshed AFTER submission to see the changes.

$full_path = 'users/'.$_SESSION['user_id'].'/images/'.$name;

if($query = mysql_query("UPDATE user_info
                         SET user_image = '$full_path'
                         WHERE user_id = '".$_SESSION['user_id']."' AND
                         username = '".$_GET['username']."'
                         "))
                        {

    if(move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, '/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/'.$full_path)) {
        echo 'Got it!';
        }

    }

So, if I upload / click submit, the query is successful, but you can’t see the changes until an additional page refresh.

Make sure that your update query is before your select for your data in the execution of the PHP page.
