<form enctype="multipart/form-data" problem

[Faheemi]

Hi there,

I have a form as below
<form enctype=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot; action=&quot;file1.asp&quot;>
<input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;text1&quot;>
<input type=&quot;file&quot; name=&quot;file1&quot;>
</form>

In the file1.asp I used
Request(&quot;text1&quot. It should return the value typed in the text box. But it is returning empty value for that.

But if I use

<form action=&quot;file1.asp&quot;>
<input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;text1&quot;>
<input type=&quot;file&quot; name=&quot;file1&quot;>
</form>

then it works fine.

Any help in this will be highly appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

You need to use a file upload object, such as SAFileUP, need to instantiate the object:

Set oUpload = Server.CreateObject(&quot;SoftArtisans.FileUp&quot

Then you call the form fields by:

oUpload.Form(&quot;text1&quot

Do you know what (if any) file upload object you have installed on the server?

Thanks lobstah,

I thought I could use both request object and any of the File Upload object together. But it did not work for me. So I installed aspSmartUpload object from

http://www.aspsmart.com/

in the server and using this object I could access the form object including the file object.

Thanks and regards,
