Well, one of my users insists he is uploading a pdf, but the file extension is not getting to the database with the file name, so I just changed it to #result.serverFileName# which doesn't ever put the file extension in the file name column of the database (I have the file extension in another column)...
Anyway, I still need a way to remove the spaces from a file name. I'm guessing a regular expression of some sort. Will a regular expression do anything other than tell me if there is a space...it won't remove a space, will it?

Force the user to upload a file with an extension. I have something that does this that restricts the user to only upload PDF's. BTW I use the LeftCorner js library... It has a bunch of cf functions translated to JS. <script type="text/javascript" src="js/LeftCorner.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> function validate() { var myformvalue = document.myform.resume.value; var myformListLen = LeftCorner.ListLen(myformvalue , "."); var myformextention = LeftCorner.LCase(LeftCorner.ListGetAt(myformvalue, myformListLen , ".")); if (document.myform.resume.value =='') { alert('Please select a file to upload.'); document.myform.resume.focus(); return false; } if (myformextention !='pdf') { alert('Please select a file with "pdf" as the file extention.\n\nExample: MyResume.pdf\n\n'); document.myform.resume.focus(); return false; } return true; } </script> ...... <form action="#CGI.script_name#" method="post" name="myform" ONSUBMIT="return validate();" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="resume" id="resume" value="" /> etc. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:299983 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
