in theory - i would just refresh the dynamic page with the image displaying. Since the page is dynamic - you don't have to locate and delete a page. Add a proceed or no thanks. No thanks would pass through a simple delete file then say - thanks for trying or thanks for visiting us note. Proceed can pass through a sql command and insert the image name and file path or whatever is necessary into the database.
My first thought was a temporrary table - then you have to deal with purging that - so just upload the file - reference it - and they can proceed or not after that. just a quick thought as to how I may attempt it. hth Joe Zanter wrote: >Hi List! > >I have templates which allow a user to upload an image.
