File Upload File Renaming

I was wondering if anyone knows how to set up a trigger to automatically rename a file on upload to change spaces into underscores using DToolbox image and resize feature. An example is from "My picture.jpg" to "My_picture.jpg". I also wonder if this could be part of a form validation? Maybe using a spry widget?
I have no experience with triggers, and especially the adobe tng.FileUpload.class.php file (which I assume is where to change the trigger? or maybe it's in the tng.ImageUpload.class.php file?)
Thanks for the help!

Hi Chris,
fotunately I already made such a modification to ADDT´s predecessor "MX Kollection", and as the core files didn´t change, it will assumingly work the same:
1. add the following function to the file "includes/common/KT_functions.inc.php":
replace all chars from uploaded filenames other than alpha-numeric and "_" and "-" and "." with an underscore (_)
function KT_websafe_filename($text) {
return preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.]+/", "_", $text);
2. change line 120 in file "includes/common/lib/file_upload/KT_FileUpload.class.php":
old: $fileName = KT_replaceSpecialChars($fileName, 'filter');
new: $fileName = KT_websafe_filename($fileName, 'filter');
This modification will of course *always* be renaming the uploaded file accordingly -- but you´ll need no fancy trigger and anything else.
Please backup the 2 original files !!

File upload custom renaming not working with {KT_ext}

Hi,
I used many times custom renaming with file upload, and used {KT_ext} for file's extension, but in first ADDT project is not working. I use this:
$uploadObj->setRenameRule("{GET.id_cd}_{track}.{KT_ext}");
Does anybody know if {KT_ext} is broken in ADDT?
Thank you,
Ruben

Hi Günter,
{track} and {id_track} are both table fields, and setRenameRule worked right with both, but it didn't with {KT_ext}.
I've changed {track} with {id_track} in first page, and it stills fail to put extension.
But maybe is this, in first page the column for Update Transaction is like this
$upd_cds_peces->addColumn("mp3", "FILE_TYPE", "POST", "mp3");
and in the second page (where it works right) is
$upd_cds_peces->addColumn("mp3", "FILE_TYPE", "FILES", "mp3");
Althought in both cases the file is uploaded and DDBB field is filled, maybe in first case the TNG doesn't expect a file and cannot find its extension.
I'll try to change it,
thanks,
Ruben
Edit: Yes, it was this... Now it works. Thank you Günter for your help!

File Upload - File Name in Hebrew problem

Hi all,
I am using file upload with IWDResource in NW04s and while loading files with hebrew encoding I am getting gibrish when using

Unable to upload Files to child site collection using REST

Dear All,
I referred this article http://www.shillier.com/archive/2013/03/26/uploading-files-in-sharepoint-2013-using-csom-and-rest.aspx for uploading documents to SP Document Library and it works fine for any document library under the root site collection(
for example "http://<server name>/Shared Documents" but when i upload the same document to one of the sub site collection created using Managed Path( the site collection path is "http://<server name>/files/Case" and the library
name is "records") it fails and i get below error:
The security validation for this page is invalid. Click Back in your
Web browser, refresh the page, and try your operation again, Error Code -2130575251 Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException"
Any help suggestion to resolve this? I've almost tried everything to resolve this issue but no luck.. appreciate any help
for this..
Regards,
Vishal

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you had an issue uploading files to subsite using REST.
I had made a simple code demo below, it will upload a file to Document Library after you make your selection with the File control.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function uploadFile(){
//alert(2);
if (document.getElementById("file").files.length === 0) {
alert('No file was selected');
return;
var parts = document.getElementById("file").value.split("\\");
var filename = parts[parts.length - 1];
var file = document.getElementById("file").files[0];
uploadFileSync("http://YourSite", "Documents", filename, file);
//Upload file synchronously
function uploadFileSync(spWebUrl , library, filename, file)
//alert(3);
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onloadend = function(evt)
if (evt.target.readyState == FileReader.DONE)
var buffer = evt.target.result;
var completeUrl = spWebUrl
+ "/_api/web/lists/getByTitle('"+ library +"')"
+ "/RootFolder/Files/add(url='"+ filename +"',overwrite='true')?"
+ "@TargetLibrary='"+library+"'&@TargetFileName='"+ filename +"'";
$.ajax({
url: completeUrl,
type: "POST",
data: buffer,
async: false,
processData: false,
headers: {
"accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
"X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val(),
"content-length": buffer.byteLength
complete: function (data) {
//uploaded pic url
console.log(data.responseJSON.d.ServerRelativeUrl);
error: function (err) {
alert('failed');
reader.readAsArrayBuffer(file);
</script>
<input type="file" id='file' onchange="uploadFile()"/>

File Upload in Web Dynpro

Hi all,
I need to upload file from user local computer into Web Dynpro context, but standard FileUpload component doesn't look very "attractive" to me. There are 3 main reasons:
1. when user don't use Browse functionality, but he/she types directly for example == "xxxx" (not valid absolute windows path) into input field of FU Component and then click Upload, application freeze - and loading that 'file' forever.....
2. don't know how to specify custom file types in showed FileChooser (predefined are AllFiles, Pictures, HTML)
3. Browse label is not internationalized, no possibility to change that text (and that button also looks "different" )
How can I eliminate these minuses, or is here alternative solution for file uploading file in WD? My customer environment is NW 2004.
Regards,
Juraj

Dynpro UI elements has limitations. But we can use them the way we want within these limitations.
1. when user don't use Browse functionality, but he/she types directly for example == "xxxx" (not valid absolute windows path) into input field of FU Component and then click Upload, application freeze - and loading that 'file' forever.....
If there is a fixed place to hold the documents, we can prefix the path upto the filename.
2. don't know how to specify custom file types in showed FileChooser (predefined are AllFiles, Pictures, HTML)
we can get the MIME type from the resource. And further processing can be restricted.
3. Browse label is not internationalized, no possibility to change that text (and that button also looks "different" )
I Agree that we can't change "Browse", but still we can have the orientation, if your browser is Arabic, it got aligned at right hand side.

Help:simple file upload example not working

Request input on what's wrong with this -
Using JDeveloper 10G.
1) I created a simple jsp file upload file using the OJSP
File Access Tag library options. With empty JSP file,I
dropped in the httpUploadForm and the httpUpload tags.
Now when I run this I get the following error stack on
the web page.
javax.servlet.jsp.JspTagException: Posted content type isnt multipart/form-data at oracle.jsp.webutil.fileaccess.tagext.HttpUploadTag.doStartTag(HttpUploadTag.java:130)at test4.jspService(test4.jsp:10)[test4.jsp]
2)Now if I use a simple JSP without the tag library - the
page fails to display. Found that commenting out the
line "upbean.upload()" lets the page run and atleast
show me the upload form. What's wrong with this
standard example from the OC4J documentation -
<%@ page import =
"javax.servlet.http.*,
java.io.*,
java.util.*,
oracle.jsp.webutil.fileaccess.*;" language="java" session="true" contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"
%>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>Upload</title>
</head>
<body>
<% String userdir = "mydir"; %>
<form action="pUpload.jsp" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" method=POST>
<br>
File to upload: <INPUT TYPE="FILE" NAME="File" SIZE="50" MAXLENGTH="120" >
<br>
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="Submit" VALUE="Send">
</form>
<jsp:useBean id="upbean" class="oracle.jsp.webutil.fileaccess.HttpUploadBean" >
<jsp:setProperty name="upbean" property="destination" value="<%= userdir %>" />
</jsp:useBean>
<% upbean.setBaseDir(application, request);
//upbean.upload(request);
%>
</body>
</html>

It's not clear from your post, but are you aware that the
documentation is really showing multiple files?
The doc examples are based on the ones you can try out by downloading the ojspdemos.ear file.
They use discrete steps. For example, the fileUploadIndex.html contains the following
This will call the form and set the action in the form to call the tag upload jsp file. The form will do the multi-part post and the tag upload file does display the text after the <upload:httpUpload> tag. I just re-ran the example to be sure.
The same basic mechanism applies to the upload bean. That is it is called via:
This is the only way that these can work because the upload code (beans & tags) both require a multi-part post. I hope this helps

Rename file extension during a file upload ??

I need to rename the extension of a file at some point during the file upload. I am not sure where to do this at.
The file needs to be renamed before it is written to the directory.
Basically, the file will come in with a .txt or .doc type. Based on a users profile, I will change the type to a non-relavent number such as 1111.
Here is my upload servlet. Can you tell me where to change the type so it will write the file with the new extension?
Thanks.

I am also need to rename a file and extension while uploadinf the file to the server. The oreilly example seems only save as the same file name and ext. I wonder if you have the ability chANGE OIT OR NOT. pLEASE LET ME KNOW

Automatically renaming an uploaded file

I am creating a page to upload files, as well as to submit
data about the file to be stored in a database. When the form data
is submitted, how can I program it to automatically rename the
uploaded file to the ID or Key number of the row in the database in
which the file's information is stored?

What scripting language are you using?

Return renamed uploaded file name

Hey,
I'm trying to upload a file from flash(selected via
filereference) via php, i rename(in php) the file before uploading
it. this isn't a problem and works great but then i need to return
the new filename to flash so i can save a link to it in my
database.
my biggest problem is that i use file.upload(phpScriptPath)
to upload the file. But if i use the echo command in php to return
newFilename i don't know how to capture this information in flash.
does anybody help me out?
thx on advance

You can't return the new filename using the FileReference
object so you need a workaround. From what you posted here I can't
put my finger on the right solution but to illustrate:
I needed a solution as part of a form where the user would
provide name, email and so on and could upload a c.v. Before the
file upload I used a LoadVars (and used the sendAndLoad() method)
object to post the data from the form and return the record_id from
the database. In the onLoad event of the LoadVars object I used the
FileReference object to handle the upload, calling an upload script
and added the record_id as a get variable. The record_id was then
used to save the new filename of the uploaded file to the database.
If this is not feasible in your situation, elaborate on the
topic by describing your scenario in more detail.

Creaky MuVo battery pack? Also, warmness after uploading files (renamed thre

Sorry to keep making threads about little things, but I reckon it's worth checking. My MuVo feels quite a bit hotter after I upload files to it (completely fill over USB2.0 usually). It cools down in a few minutes, but I thought I'd check to see if it's normal behaviour. If it's relevant, the USB connector on the main bit (with the controls) is squint (angled towards the screen face of the player).
Also, my battery module's a bit creaky. When I press buttons on the player or swap the battery I can feel it creaking into different positions. The main player doesn't do this on its own, so I'm wondering if all the battery modules are like that. If not, I might send off for a new battery module as it's only about ?9 and it'd really improve the feel of the player (I hate cheap-feeling plastic if it's something I'm handling a lot).
Edit- Just to elaborate on the "creaky" thing, the battery pack feels really loose and plasticky on its own and when the main player bit's plugged in. This makes the whole thing feel a bit fiddly, creaking when I press down on buttons or the scroller, when in fact the player bit itself feels solid on its own.
Now, if I pop the player in the belt clip holster widget, it suddenly "tightens" up, presumably because the holster is pressing in around the player. It feels really, really solid. Is the problem shared by all the battery packs, or have I just mistreated mine a bit's If it's the latter I'll nab a new battery pack.Message Edited by Sockatume on 06-20-2005 03:44 AM

My Zen Micro heated up a bit when I was charging/transferring files too. I just unplugged it and in a few minutes it was fine. So that seems to be normal. Don't know about the other problem though, sorry.

Adobe Muse won't publish (Error uploading file)

After making simple animations using Adobe Edge Animate it seems as though none of the assets will publish with my site after importing them into Muse.
In Edge animate I saved for "web animation" and published. Then I went to muse and hit "place". I went to preview and everything works fine. When I go to publish there are always errors in uploading my assets with '.png' extensions.
Any help is much appreciated. I have completely scrapped my website and created another, reinstalled Animate and have renamed all my files, I'm not sure whats wrong here.
I got one animation working, and that can be seen here under the Photography section, but I have multiples that will be shown on my page at one time.
http://chasebodydesign.businesscatalyst.com

I get the error uploading file everytime I try publishing the animation.
