In the intranet I am developing, the user can add a new document to the web. he has to go to a page where he clicks on the the department name , a form to add the document to that deparment comes up. this form consist of document name , description, a browse button , upload document button and department name field. since it is intranet, the department name of the user is known when he logged on and stored in session variable and shown as such in the department name field. he then upload the document to the directory on the server. this directory is further divided into sub directories which are the department names. so that document should be uploaded to the selected department (sub directory). when he is finished the web page should show the department name as the title and list of all the documents of that deparment. but it is not happening. the documents are ending up in the main directory and not the sub-directories (departments) and the list also shows the list of the sub directories (departments). it is not considering department e.

so at the moment the documents are been uploaded to the main root (D:\Intranet Online Documents\) or to a department directory (department a) under the main root but not into the correct department under department a?

if the documents are been uploaded to the main root then it is probably this line that is the problem!

<tr>
<td>Department</td>
<td><input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;wpdept&quot;>
<cfoutput>#Session.Auth.Dept#</cfoutput></td>
</tr>

you are not providing a value for the wpdept, so when you come to upload the file, there is no value for this variable to CF is uploading the file to the D:\Intranet Online Documents\ directory.

add a value to the input type and give it a go.

Hope this helps!

the documents are uploaded to the main root.
the user can only add document of his department so
what should I have for value >#Session.Auth.Dept#

if Session.Auth.Dept holds the name of the subdirectory under the department name that you want to upload to then yes.

if it doesn't then you will have to add some code to say which sub department to upload to
