Re: CFFILEUPLOAD total confusion
cffile action=upload destination=E:\docs\probmgmt\_tempFiles\upload\ nameConflict=overwrite / cfset PhysicalPath = GetDirectoryFromPath(GetCurrentTemplatePath()) cf_sanfile action=append file=#PhysicalPath#errorlog.txt output=#cffile.clientFile# nameConflict = overwrite This will dump out a list of your file names to a temp file called errorlog.txt. You can see that #cffile.clientFile# will tell you the names of your files 1 at a time. Your upload file gets called once for each file ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:352066 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
RE: CFFILEUPLOAD total confusion
If you want to go the jQuery route, you could try Uploadify. I recently used it and had no issues. http://www.uploadify.com/ Regards, Che -Original Message- From: Gene Godsey [mailto:gene.god...@comcast.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 03, 2011 3:21 PM To: cf-talk Subject: CFFILEUPLOAD total confusion I have been on adobe forums, I have dialogued with Ray Camden and scoured the web. I will also say that I have been doing CF for a long time but this one has me stumped. call me dumb but it is what it is. Here is my index.cfm file: -- cffileupload url=index_action.cfm?#urlEncodedFormat(session.urlToken)# progressbar=true name=myupload width=400 height=300 title = UPLOAD MULTIPLE FILES TO PRIVATE FOLDER maxuploadsize=200 extensionfilter=*.jpg, *.png, *.flv, *.txt, *.doc, *.docx, *.xls, *.xlsx *.pdf BGCOLOR=##0078AE MAXFILESELECT=10 / -- Here is the action file called: index_action.cfm -- cffile action=uploadall destination=#expandPath('uploads')# nameconflict=overwrite result=myVar / cfdump var=#myVar# cfset str.STATUS = 200 cfset str.MESSAGE = passed cfoutput#serializeJSON(str)#/cfoutput -- Well we all know this s a flash application so there is not a postback to the server. I need the filename of the uploads to be available to me so I can insert the names into the database via the directory that are in. this will allow the users of the site to download and read the given files. My problem is that I do not know how to return the file names so I can insert them into the given data table. There is no return here. All I can imagine is there must be some kind of JavaScript the will provide me with the name so I can insert the names as the files are uploaded to the given directory. Question 1: How do I get the application to retrieve and provide the file or files name(s)? Question 2: Is this display an actual output or is this .cgi information that I pull behind the seens? Question 3: If this is done with jQuery or some kind of JavaScript call is it possible to get an example to I can replicate it in process? Thanks in advance. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:344190 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

The value, myVar, is an array of file structs. Each struct contains information about the file upload. Look up the docs for cffile/action=upload. The data is the same, but action=upload lets you handle multiple - hence the use of an array. Point is - all the data is there. Question 2: Is this display an actual output or is this .cgi information that I pull behind the seens? Is that a display? Thie last code block you showed, the one with uploadall, handles the request sent by the Flash on the front end. It returns JSON back. So the code on the client gets the JSON, parses it, and works with it. So it' snot visible per se. It's a bit like a robot doing a http request for you. Question 3: If this is done with jQuery or some kind of JavaScript call is it possible to get an example to I can replicate it in process? It's all Flash and JS. Not sure what you mean by 'replicate the process' though. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:344205 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
