ASP to upload files

Greetings everyone!

I'm using 3 asp/VBscripts to upload files to server (via html form -multipart/form-data).
-------------------------------
<H2>To File System</H2>
<FORM method="post" encType="multipart/form-data" action="ToFileSystem.asp">
<INPUT type="File" name="File1">
<INPUT type="hidden" name="someName" value="someValue">
<INPUT type="Submit" value="Upload">
</FORM>
-------------------------------

My question is: how do I rerieve the additional "hidden" form fields in the ToFileSystem.asp?

Specificly, I'm using the script written by Lewis Moten availabel at:
http://www.pscode.com/vb/scripts/Sh...d=7361&lngWId=4

Thank you in advance!

request.form("someName")

The request.form() method Does not work in a encType="multipart/form-data" form type.

There is a special format to retrieve the field data using Lewis Moten's class.

Thanks though!

ahhh, cool. I never knew that. I guess that makes sense, to securely pass the hidden values. haha, yea I just did a sniff and the hidden values were all scrambled. You learn something knew everyday....so you found an answer?

Yes, you cannot use Request.Form(). You will see an error when you use it along with BinaryRead.

Getting form values is implementation specific.

I found this in the questions and comments section of the url you gave.

objUpload("(NameOfHiddenField)") .value


You can find one at

they have their own way of doing it.

aspman,

Thank you for responding.
Yes, I figured it out early this morning. That is the way to retrieve it.
Plus, this method needs to be placed before closing the object (that was another mistake i made).

This was a great script...pure asp for uploading files, no components required.

Thanks again
