HELP!!!!

Am a bit stuck! I have created an email system at work which works fine. I am trying top add in the option to attch a file. The code I have will not save the file onto the server. Also when I include enctype="multipart/form-data" in the form details are not passed to the asp send page:
Code in question;

set upl = Server.CreateObject("SoftArtisans.FileUp")
upl.saveas "global\upload1.out"
mailer.AddAttachment upl.Form("global\upload1.out").ServerName

Any ideas why this will not work?

Does your form field really have the name "global\upload1.out"? Like this:

<input type="file" name="global\upload1.out">

---
b { font-weight: normal; }

Use that name when you read the information for the uploaded file, then.

Thanks for the help!
I did what you said guffa so the code looks like:

if request.form("attachment")<>"" then

set upl = Server.CreateObject("SoftArtisans.FileUp")

upl.saveas "attachment"
mailer.AddAttachment upl.Form("attachment").ServerName

end if

It does not like the code in bold stating 'cannot call binary read'. Any help?

You can't use Request.Form when you are using an upload component. You have to get the form data from the component.

The reason for this is that the form data and the uploaded files both come in the request. They have to be parsed at the same time, and the component does this.

Thanks guffa for your help so far
Regarding not being able to use request.form in the following code:
if request.form("attachment")<>"" then

set upl = Server.CreateObject("SoftArtisans.FileUp")

upl.saveas "attachment"
mailer.AddAttachment upl.Form("attachment").ServerName

end if

are you regarding this to the first line. If so I thought I could use it as it is only checking if theirs some data in the file box on the form page to see whether to add the attachment. If not where abouts are you relating to? Sorry am new to ASP I just started it 2 weeks ago but know alot to do with PHP.

Thanks for your help

Yes, I am talking about the first line. That is the only place in the code shown where you use Request.Form.

It doesn't matter what you do with the value you read from the form data. If you read anything at all from the Request.Form collection, it will parse the request and discard any uploaded files.

I see that you also changed the file name you use when saving the uploaded file. Is this intentional, or a mistake?

I understand now.
So how will I get thet request to work then will something similar to:

set upl = Server.CreateObject("SoftArtisans.FileUp")

'if statement checking to see if the attachment box on the form has data in it
if upl.form("attachment")<>"" then

'Path where to save tyhe file to
upl.saveas ("global/attachment.out")

'upload the attachment to the email
mailer.AddAttachment upl.Form("attachment.out").ServerName

'end the if statement
end if

but this brings back the error 'Cannot Call BinaryRead' relating to the line bolded out above.

I added comments of what i think is going on if wrong please put me right.
Thanks so far for your help.

regular expression for parsing url link

27-Jul-05 0:37

You have to check the documentation for the component to see in what order it does things. Perhaps you have to save the file before you can access the Form collection.

Some components parse the request when the component object is created, others parse the request when the files are saved.

Hi there,
You can try the Regex class with the regular expression href\\s*=\\s*(?:\"(?<1>[^\"]*)\"|(?<1>\\S+)), the sample code looks something like this:

public ArrayList ExtractHrefs(string inputString)
{
	ArrayList hrefs = new ArrayList();
	Regex r = new Regex("href\\s*=\\s*(?:\"(?<1>[^\"]*)\"|(?<1>\\S+))",
		RegexOptions.IgnoreCase|RegexOptions.Compiled);
	for(Match m = r.Match(inputString); m.Success; m = m.NextMatch()) 
	{
		hrefs.Add(m.Groups[1].Value);
	}
                  
	return hrefs;
}

Oops! I forgot the fact that I was in the Web Development forum, not ASP.NET. Sorry, I'm not familiar with the Perl, but Google can help you out.

ActiveX in VS.NET web app

Hello

I have a ActiveX component created in VB6, (where it works fine!). But when I implement the ActiveX component into VS.NET web application, on the client side, the methods(in the Active X) dont function as they should. Is there anything I have to do to my activeX before I implement it into VS.NET??

Hi there,
To host an ActiveX control on a web page .aspx, you simply use the object tag, and what you might need to do is to create a cab file for your ActiveX control in case it can be downloaded to the client machine if it is not yet installed at the client side. Because you don't talk about what your function does, so IMO you might want to check some thing related to the permission, path, ... which can cause the control not to run properly.

My method is based on CAPICOM.

When the ActiveX is plased inside the .net web page the method is no loger abel to load a certificate.

So I agree with you that there is probably something wrong with my permissions.

how to clean the no use data after confirmation?

Hello everyone:

I have a problem that have confused me several days,here is the senario:
Some times user may accidently close a page via which some operation may have been submitted to the database,in that case we can use a confirmation msgbox to avoid that.
However,if the user really want to close that window ,all the data that have been submit to the database will be no use at all.of course,we can use a sever side code to solve this problem.
what i dont know is when the user clicks "yes" (which means he really want to close the page)in the client side ,how can we triggle a server side code to clean all the data that has just been submit to the database?and after that how can we close the page?
is there any one who can give me some suggestion? Thank you in advance!

It depends on the MSWord version and components that you have installed but if the file is saved as Word HTML you can choose to view the source code by selecting the menu "View > Source HTML Code".
But, why don't you open the document with any other editor (notepad)?
