Hello James, I want to grab the file name and query it in the database to see if it exists or not before the 15mb file is uploaded. This way, if the file exists, I can easily return an error and prompt the user to rename the file, or offer suggested names for the file.
I've created a site for uploading videos, and there is a chance that 2 people can upload a video with the same name, but the video is completely different. If I could bypass the upload and just check the name then this would save alot of time. Kind regards, Rick -----Original Message----- From: James Holmes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: February-04-08 10:20 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: File upload Out of curiosity, can you say why you need the filename before the file is uploaded to the server?
