First of all, create an index.php file and update the below HTML code into your index.php file.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>PHP Signature Pad Example - Tutsmake.com</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.css"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <link type="text/css" href="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.12.1/themes/south-street/jquery-ui.css" rel="stylesheet"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="asset/jquery.signature.min.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="asset/jquery.signature.css"> <style> .kbw-signature { width: 400px; height: 200px;} #sig canvas{ width: 100% !important; height: auto; } </style> </head> <body> <div class="container"> <form method="POST" action="upload.php"> <h1>PHP Signature Pad Example - Tutsmake.com</h1> <div class="col-md-12"> <label class="" for="">Signature:</label> <br/> <div id="sig" ></div> <br/> <button id="clear">Clear Signature</button> <textarea id="signature64" name="signed" style="display: none"></textarea> </div> <br/> <button class="btn btn-success">Submit</button> </form> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var sig = $('#sig').signature({syncField: '#signature64', syncFormat: 'PNG'}); $('#clear').click(function(e) { e.preventDefault(); sig.signature('clear'); $("#signature64").val(''); }); </script> </body> </html>
This HTML code shows the image upload form, so using this form you can upload the images on the DB table and project folder.

<?php $folderPath = "upload/"; $image_parts = explode(";base64,", $_POST['signed']); $image_type_aux = explode("image/", $image_parts[0]); $image_type = $image_type_aux[1]; $image_base64 = base64_decode($image_parts[1]); $file = $folderPath . uniqid() . '.'.$image_type; file_put_contents($file, $image_base64); echo "Signature Uploaded Successfully."; ?>
This PHP code will upload file into project directory.
