Hello,

I've found this activeX component to assist with uploading files to a webserver...


However there is a line here
Code:
upload.Path = "/receiveUpload.asp"

I don't quite understand, I thought after running the activeX MSI installer on the server, I used this code to up load files.

So what is this receiveUpload.asp ? what does that do, how do I create it, where do I put it and why is it needed?

Thanks,
1DMF

It's ok wroked it out.

You need this bit to 'recieve' files to the webserver..


However that just means the form to send the file uses the standard MIME encoded HTTP protocol, which I cannot use as the files are too big!

Does anyone know how to do it using the FTP protocol or the clients machine inet.dll or similar?
