Subject: non standard image upload file
Date Posted: 20 August 2003 at 3:34pm

Our forum server, hosted by my ISP, uses none of the 5 recommended file upload protocols .. and they do not wish to for technical reasons. I had hoped to avoid modifying the standard version 7.1 of the forum that works so well ... thankyou.

The ISP had me FTP the following uploads_process.aspx file. It does upload images .. BUT does not have the correct exits to have the image then appear in the posts (which is what I am after).

 At present, the images sit on the server with a ugly message saying "upload success" and the ISP expects our forum users to then link to them which avoidable when the "image upload" button is fully fuctional. ie a one step process.

<%@ Page Language="VB" AspCompat="true" debug=true%>
<%

            Dim uploadFolderPath, Filefrom, filepath, inwhere, OrigFileName, fileName, intForumID, strMessageBoxType

'read in the forum ID and message box type
  intForumID = CInt(Request.QueryString("FID"))
  strMessageBoxType = Request.QueryString("MSG")


            uploadFolderPath = "d:\camelot\www\users\queenslander\organic\forum\uploads\"

 

            Filefrom = Request.Files.Get(0)

            filepath = Filefrom.fileName

            inwhere = Instr(1, StrReverse(filepath), "\") - 1

OrigFileName = Right(filepath,inwhere)

 

fileName = OrigFileName          

'fileName = getValidfileName(fileName, uploadFolderPath)

Filefrom.SaveAs(uploadFolderPath & fileName)
'Response.Redirect("")
%>

<html>
<head>
<title>Upload Success</title>
</head>

<body>
<h2>Upload Success</h2><hr>
<a href="Javascript:void(0)" onClick="win=window.close()">Click to Close</a>
</body>

</html>

I have tried inserting code from upload_images.asp supplied with v7.1 but then nothing happened. I am so very confused. Hope that you can give me some advice ?

I am in the process of downloading an asp editor ... but I know very little about asp.

Regards and much thanks .. Potts

potts. if your upload script in written in ASP.Net then it is incompatible with the forum code which is written in ASP.  There's no easy way to directly integrate them both.

There have been many, many posts made throughout the world...
This was one of them.

Yes there is. ASP works fine with ASP.NET.

Gone..
