I've been looking for several days at examples of using a
flash file uploader. I was after single or multiple file uploads, a
progress bar and the ability to add "vanilla" form fields. The most
promising I found was the YUI uploader from those nice people at
Yahoo
http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/uploader/u...
I got it working fine submitting to a simple CF page
<cfif structkeyexists(form,"Filedata")>
<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="Filedata"
destination="#expandpath(".")#" nameconflict="OVERWRITE">
</cfif>
<cfif structkeyexists(form,"var1") and
structkeyexists(form,"var2")>
<cffile action = "append" file =
"#expandpath(".")#\log.txt" output = "var1 = #var1# var2 =
#var2#">
</cfif>
I'm a complete novice with Javascript, PHP, flash in fact
anything other than CF, so there's a bit I don't understand (well
several ... but this one in particular!)
On the example in the YUI documentation they say they are
using this PHP scrip to handle server side
1 <?php
2 foreach ($_FILES as $fieldName => $file) {
3 move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'], "./" .
$file['name']);
4 echo (" ");
5 } ?>
The echo bit seems to "bounce back" the post data which is
then picked up by the onuploadresponse(event). In CF how would I
pass back some response to the calling page to fire this
event?
