Auto Uploading of File HELP

[chadau]

I need to upload files to a WebServer but need to do so without obvious user interaction ie as part of a particular process, a Word file is created automatically on the client in a temporary directory. The name of this file is automatically generated by the process. The file then needs to be uploaded to a specific directory on the Web server.

The user is not aware of where this file is located or what its name is, so a file box with browse button is not appropriate unlike the example here. I wish to upload the file programmatically with the known name.

Can't do it! What your asking has some obvious security issues. I sure don't want a site that I go to, to start uploading files from my machine without my knowledge.

That'l do donkey, that'l do

Can you provide a more information as to the purpose or problem domain you are trying to solve? Perhaps there is a different way to accomplish what you are trying to achieve.

Let us know...there may be a way to solve your problem without creating a file on the client and having it uploaded to the server.

For example, if you have the data elements necessary to create the document available on the server-side...you can still create the document and store it on the server without having to create/upload from the client....??
