Sir, Someone pointed out to me that Cocoon handles file uploading for you. I was rather skeptical - but, i just tried it and it works.
On client machine, i used a browser and my form with an enctype="multipart/form-data", an HTML INPUT tag of type file, and an HTML INPUT of type submit. Of course, your pipeline "answers" the match for handling the form. And guess what, the file is sitting on my server at c:\program files\apache group\tomcat 4.1\work\standalone\localhost\cocoon\cocoon-files\upload-dir. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL THING. But, ya know, it is just like i tell the folks that i work with - "You may have done the greatest things, but unless you can tell others (written) about what you have done - you have done nothing". Having found the hidden gem, my next step is to take the form data and place it into an email body and attach the uploaded file to the email and send it on its way. It is gonna take me longer to find out how to do it than what it will take for me to actually do it. good luck, Sir, Ray > -----Original Message----- > From: Volker Schneider [mailto:volker.schneider@;danet.de] > Sent: Friday, November 08, 2002 4:15 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: File upload with Cocoon > > > Dear colleagues, > > does anybody know how I can do a file upload using the html <input > type="file" ../> tag? > > Do you have an example pipeline? > What shall I do with the result? > Where can I get the content of the selected file from? > > Thank you, best regards > - Volker - > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Please check that your question has not already been answered in the > FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
