have him use the browser to ftp. Instead of using http in the front, he puts ftp in the front.
(ie: ftp://yourftpsite he'll need to pass username and password to the site but after he does, all he has to do is drag and drop. for example: ftp://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ie: ftp://myusername:[EMAIL PROTECTED] simple... ?? Try it... do a drag and drop and you'll see how easy it is. -pat- -----Original Message----- From: Parker, Kevin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 01, 2003 11:13 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Image upload en masse That's the obvious and certainly best solution but we're not sure if FTP clients are going to be available from Internet Cafe's in India or if the cafe will allow them to be loaded. As the web is always accessible from cafes then a web based app seemed like a sure thing but I'm open to advice and suggestions. ********** Kevin Parker Web Services Manager WorkCover Corporation e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] w: www.workcover.com p:+ 61 8 8233 2548 f: +61 8 8233 2282 m: 0418 806 166 ********** -----Original Message----- From: B.H.

Periodically he'll get them dumped to a CD (if he can find a place in India to do that) but as a precaution (in case he loses the camera and the CDs) he wants to dump them on the web. He figures he'll have about 80 images at a time. Picking them one at a time (such as in a CF form) is pretty intensive and he's looking for a way to grab them en masse and upload them. Given that he'll probably be doing this from Internet Cafe's he probably needs to do this via some web app because its unlikely the cafes will have an FTP client loaded or allow one to be loaded. Any suggested approaches please. ********** Kevin Parker Web Services Manager WorkCover Corporation e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] w: www.workcover.com p:+ 61 8 8233 2548 f: +61 8 8233 2282 m: 0418 806 166 ********** ************************************************************************ This e-mail is intended for the use of the addressee only.
