Ok, I'm usually ok posting through director, as nearly every project I've
worked on posts to an asp/php page to get sql data, so basically my
problem isn't there...but file upload is a bit new....

I'm still attempting to do the file upload via director, which isn't
working, but I think it's because I'm not emulating the browser
upload/post correctly in this one case.

I've got the html page working with the cgi, so my setup is right. I've
even gotten a correct return via director post, except the succesful
return claims that no data was sent; take a look - this is the
return/result of the file-upload post:

<HTML>
                <HEAD>
                        <TITLE>Upload Finished</TITLE>
                </HEAD>
                <BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF">
                <H1>Upload Finished</H1>
                <P>
                You uploaded <B>0</B> files totalling <B></B> total bytes.
Individual
                file information is listed below:
                <PRE>


                </PRE>
                <P>
                Thank you for using the File Upload! system.
                <P>

                </BODY>
                </HTML>

- notice how it shows a total of 0 files/no bytes?

So WHAT AM I MISSING in the form post data from director? Here's the
mockup:

"http://www.grimmwerks.com/cgi-bin/file-upload.cgi?ENCTYPE=multipart%2fform-dat$

this is the urlencoded string (and notice my diskdrive is Spasmolytic, on
the Desktop folder in the audioresponse folder the target file is
question.mov.

DOH! I think I see it - the mac filepath internal to director is delimed
by ":" - so I'm getting the charcodes for the colon....let me try
something here....

No, same problem/same return, even with the proper link to the file
(file:///Spasmolytic/Desktop%20Folder/audioresponse/question.mov) I get
that I successfully uploaded 0 files of 0 bytes....

Am I not emulating something properly that the form does?
