It looks like you are trying to do some parsing of the uploaded
filename. I recently needed to perform similar processing and here is
what I did:
- I let the user upload the file using a file type html input
- my submit button called a _javascript_ function that pulled the filename
and set it into a hidden input field's value then submitted the form
- I then performed my filename processing on the cf template that was
the action target.
- In my cffile I used the changed name in my destination attribute
I hope this helps.
