file uploading through HTML form 1

[davideart]

Hi, here is my problem:
I'm trying to send file from the browser client to the IIS server using the followin' code:

<form enctype=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot; method=POST
action=&quot;url.com/asppage.asp&quot; id=form1ww name=form1ww>
<input type=hidden name=FName value=&quot;&quot;>
<input type=hidden name=FValue value=&quot;&quot;>

<input type=file name=file ><br>

<input type=submit name=UPL value=&quot;submit&quot;>
</form>

I think I receive the file, but I don't know how to manage it.
How can I handle the received file on the server?
Do I need some particular object installed on the web server?

Thanks in advance to anyone who will reply.
G'day

Hi davideart,

There are some third-party components available for uploading files from the client to the server.
Some are free and some costs money. Self I use softartisans.fileup (not free) and I heared from many others that it works well. (the investment depends at how often you will use it)

Look at thread thread333-53713 and you see what other experts allready told about uploading files.
Maybe you find some other helpfull threads when you do a (advanced) search.

Good Luck,
Erik

hi Erik, thank you very much for your support, now I understand that I need a component on my web server to handle the uploaded file. Could you kindly tell me how this component works? Does it shows methods, properties and so on? Do I have to create an object associated to the component (i.e set cmd=server.CreateObject(&quot;compname.compmethod&quot)?

Thank you again and I hope to hear you again
David

Hi david,

yes you have to create an object.

For detailed information please look at

Good luck,
Erik

I know of an ASP-only piece of VBScript which interprets the file upload submit, but doesn't require a custom component on the server.

Here's the URL:
