ASP pure upload - Capture FileName in form

[Beefminator]

I am following the directions for ASP upload:
http://www.asp101.com/articles/jacob/scriptupload.asp

This is working great at my website:
http://www.walkhere.com/uploadform.htm

However, how do I capture form data for file name? The following script
will not work:
<%=Uploader.Form("File.FileName")%>

 

[Kevin Spencer]

Well, after looking at the page you directed us to, I read:

Here is an example of how to access a specific file in the Files Collection
using the HTML file input element name as the Index:

<%
Response.Write "File Name:" & MyUploader.Files("file1").FileName
Response.Write "File Size:" & MyUploader.Files("file1").FileSize
Response.Write "File Type:" & MyUploader.Files("file1").ContentType
%>

It's about 1/3 of the way down the page.

Hey Kevin,

Thanks for your quick response. I am still having problems, I am not
tough as making chicken tender salad.

I put the following the code in
http://www.walkhere.com/uploadexmple.asp

<%
Response.Write "File Name:" & MyUploader.Files("FILE1").FileName
Response.Write "File Size:" & MyUploader.Files("FILE1").FileSize
Response.Write "File Type:" & MyUploader.Files("FILE1").ContentType
%>

It barfed..doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Jason

Weel, as I guess you know, the error was
Thank you for your upload
File(s) not uploaded.

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'

Variable is undefined: 'MyUploader'

/uploadexmple.asp, line 72

I am very new to ASP, but I suggest that you check the variable names.
It's posssible that Kevin was just giving an example, nor the exact code
that you need.

And
Are you using the code exactly as provided or did you rename MyUploader

Yeah, the name was incorrect so I changed the name from "MyUploader" to
"Uploader"

I am now getting a different error for
http://www.walkhere.com/uploadexmple.asp:

Thank you for your upload
File(s) not uploaded.


Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'

Object required: '[undefined]'

/uploadexmple.asp, line 73

 

[Kevin Spencer]

Well, I suggest you have a look at "line 73" of your code, as we can't see
it on the client side.

Hey Kevin,

Line 73 is the following:

<% Response.Write Uploader.Files("FILE1").FileName %>

 

[Kevin Spencer]

Well, either the "Uploader" variable has not been assigned, or there is no
file in the Files collection named "FILE1".

Hey Kieth,

The code: <%Response.Write Uploader.Files("file1").FileName%> is now
working.

I thought it wasn't working, but it is now. Appreciate your patience.
