Uploading an image, then displaying it as a Canvas on the next page

I'm attempting to create a page that allows the manipulation of an uploaded image by using Canvas. So far, I've had no luck forwarding the image from one page (the submit form) to the other, which contains the canvas. I'm using PHP, Javascript and HTML in order to try and send the image from the submit form to the canvas space.
This is the submitting form.
<form action="designer.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="name">Name</label><?php
include('/tbp3/php/autoload.php');
header('Content-Type: application/json');
$fullpath = $_SESSION['activeImg'];
$size = getimagesize($fullpath);
echo json_encode(array('x' => $size[0], 'y' => $size[1], 'path' => $fullpath, 'lastPosJson' => isset($_SESSION['lastPos']) ? $_SESSION['lastPos'] : '[]'));
$db->close();
?>
<p>2-32 characters</p>
<input class="form-control" type="text" name="name" id="name">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<p>JPEG/PNG under 2MB only</p>
<label class="btn btn-default" for="image">Choose Image</label>
<span></span>
<input class="inputfile" type="file" name="image" id="canvas">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
</div>
<input class="btn btn-primary" type="submit" value="Next">
</form>
This is the JavaScript I use in order to confirm the uploaded file is a PNG or JPEG. Note: I'm a novice at Javascript.
var validTypes = ['png', 'jpg', 'jpeg'];
$(document).ready(function(){
$('form').submit(function(e){//on submission..
var file = $('#upload').val();
var isValid = true;
var error = '';
if(file == ''){
error = 'Select a file before proceeding!';
$('#upload').addClass('validation-error');
isValid = false;
} else{
var type = /[^\.]*$/.exec(file).toString().toLowerCase();
if($.inArray(type, validTypes) == -1){
error = type + ' is an invalid type for the image! Please use ' + validTypes.join(', ').replace(/,([^,]*)$/, " or$1.");
$('#upload').addClass('validation-error');
isValid = false;
}
}
});
And this is on the page 'Designer.php'. I want the image to be displayed on the tag.
<div class="row canvasarea">
<div class="col-xs-6 header">Canvas</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 header">Live View</div>
</div>
<div class="row canvasarea">
<div class="col-xs-6 help">TEXT</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 help">TEXT</div>
</div>
<div class="row canvasarea">
<div class="col-xs-6">
<canvas id='canvas'></canvas></div>
<div class="col-xs-6">
<img id='liveupdate'/><br></div>

}
}
} else{
header('Location: submit.php?e='.urlencode(substr($error, 0, strlen($error) - 2)));
}
}
?>
Any push into the right direction would be appreciated.

PHP mail function doesn't complete sending of e-mail

Is my code ok to send and email using PHP? Please take a look:
HTML:
<form class="contact_form" method="POST" action="mail.php">

</form>
JS/JQuery:
// Form Validation ------------------------------------ //
// Form is not valid on page load //
var isFormValid = false;
// input variables //
var name = $('#name');

} else {

}

I'm very unexperienced with PHP. Could You please tell me why my contact form is not working/sending emails?
JQuery Validation works fine.
This project is just on my drive not localhost (is it ok for PHP mail() to work?).
Of course PHP file has name "mail.php".

install a web server like XAMPP,WAMPP, etc

$.post JQuery not working

I have a problem with form. After i click Dodaj button nothing happens.
I've putted alert dialog to see when it stops and it stops after
$.post('dodaj_ztoner.php', post_data, function(response){
I have made similar forms with similar code (names and number of items was different) and it worked
alert('post'); is not displaying. so looks like problem is here $.post('dodaj_ztoner.php', post_data, function(response){

Your page doesn't conatains any form tag, so simple use
<button class=submit_btn" id="zsubmit_btn">Dodaj</button> instead of input type = submit
This will Work!!!!

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
echo "signup_success";
so you can simply remove this, and instead of emailing them a verification, just change their status in the database to registered or however you distinguish between someone who hasn't activated their account and someone who has activated their account.

In order to achieve that you'll need to :
1 - learn PHP
2 - There's no 2, you'll just figure it out once you can read the code.

PHP-Javascript interaction

So I've been attempting to get this page to work correctly for the past few days. As far as the database manipulation and what not it works like a charm. The problem is that it apparently isn't hitting my javascript function to redirect back onto itself. It will instead show a mostly blank page with no $_GET variables in the url which leads me to believe the problem is actually in my php function rather than my javascript function.
function edit_player()
{
try{
if( isset( $_GET['player_id'] ) )
{
if( isset( $_GET['success'] ) && $_GET['success'] )
{
echo "<div class='success'> You have successfully edited this players info.</div>" ;
}
$playerid = $_GET['player_id'] ;
$db = honneyconnect( ) ; // db connection established
if( mysqli_connect_error() )
{
throw new Exception( "Could not connect to the database") ;
}
$query = 'select * from roster where player_number ="'.$playerid.'"' ;
$player = $db->query( $query ) ;
if( !$player )
{
throw new Exception ( "Query returned zero results" ) ;
}
else
{
$row = $player->fetch_row() ;
echo '

success_redirect( ".$url." )
should be
success_redirect( '".$url." ')
and why don't you use the header function
header("Location: $url");
