coldfusion cffile upload how to describe the file to be uploaded -
i've never used cffile upload. in looking @ documentation see file uploaded described
name of form field used select file. not use number signs (#) specify field name.
i cannot decipher this. if file uploaded john.jpg, residing on user's disk, how indicate in cffile command?
i have other questions well, start basic one.
what documentation using? there should example there here: <cffile action="upload">
in example (which i've edited), shows not reference name of file user selected, anything, reference name of form field, filecontents
, used upload file.
<!--- windows example ---> <!--- check see if form variable exists. ---> <cfif structkeyexists(form, "filecontents") > <!--- if true, upload file. ---> <cffile action = "upload" filefield = "filecontents" destination = "c:\files\upload\" accept = "text/html" nameconflict = "makeunique"> <cfelse> <!--- if false, show form. ---> <form method="post" action=<cfoutput>#cgi.script_name#</cfoutput> name="uploadform" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input name="filecontents" type="file"> <input name="submit" type="submit" value="upload file"> </form> </cfif>
once cffile
process completes, collection of variables defined in structure named cffile
(see documentation link). 1 of these variables cffile.clientfile
, contains name of file uploaded user's computer.
