File Upload in Webspeed

[bijujnair]

Hi,
We are currently upgrading our website and we want to add a feature for attaching files from users local PC to our server. (Just like Gmail, Yahoo or any mail service). File's would be word,excel, pdf or even CAD files.

Is it possible this in webspeed? Please let me have any re-usable code component you have. That would be a great help for me as I am newbie in webspeed.

Our webserver is apache, Progress version is 9.1C

Thanks,
Biju

Hi there,

Upload files in webspeed is in your version only possible with text files.
Starting version 10.1A binary upload of binary/BLOB data files is also possible.

(So time to upgrade to a more supported version :awink

This can be achieved easily using a php (or any other cgi_bin) script.

set your target=upload.php on the <form> tag, then set a javascript redirect (document.location="/cgi-bin/cgiip.exe....") within the upload.php to return to the webspeed page.

I've used this method countless times without any problems.
