I have a folder containing some files which are used between more than one website all on the same server.
 
when a website requests a file from this folder (using the physical path), how can I copy it to another folder under the website in order to be able to access it from the web.
 
the files are video files *.wmv
 
thanks

if its inbeded in the page, you can link to anyfile you have access to i believe...

can always have an asp page, and use the content type top make the .asp page a wmv file and then able to use the physical path, simular to the security images on the forum.

the files size is 1.5 MBs or less, it is supposed to be a multimedia files shared between more than a website, i just want to upload it at one place, and then all the sites copy it automatically from the storage location.

if you can use the FSO you can link from the file direct and bring it in like the security images, no copying required.

set the URL to something like eshop/movie.asp?MovieID=""

get the MOVIEID to the record number for the movie and use a query to get the movie path.

then





'Set the stream object

Set objADOStream = server.createobject("ADODB.Stream")



'Open the streem oject

objADOStream.Open



'Set the stream object type to binary

objADOStream.Type = 1



'Load in the image gif

objADOStream.LoadFromFile "set path from query"







'Set the right response content type for the image

Response.ContentType = "MP3"



'Display image

Response.BinaryWrite objADOStream.Read



'Flush the response object

Response.Flush





'Clean up

objADOStream.Close

Set objADOStream=Nothing


not sure it works but that the idea
