File Upload Control Form does not work

N

Norm Ashton

I created a file upload form using FP2003 and it worked
well. Then I expanded it to allow the user to upload four
files at one time and it will not work, saying that the
FP extensions are not working.

I assume that I have screwed up the coding some way. Here
is my form coding:

<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data"
action="--WEBBOT-SELF--"
name="Dragoon_Content_Input"
onSubmit="">
<!--webbot bot="FileUpload" U-File="J:\RF Web
Site\_private\form_results.txt"
S-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Label-Fields="TRUE"
S-Destination="Association/DragoonInput/" B-Reverse-
Chronology="FALSE"
S-Email-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Email-
Address="(e-mail address removed)"
B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE" S-Category S-Assignedto S-
ReviewStatus
B-Process-MetaInfo="FALSE" S-Builtin-Fields="REMOTE_USER
Date"
U-Confirmation-Url="../thankyou.html" S-Date-Format="%d %
B, %Y" startspan --><strong>[File Upload Component]
</strong><!--webbot
bot="FileUpload" i-checksum="47278" endspan -->
<p><input type="file" name="F1" size="50"></p>
<p><input type="file" name="F2" size="50"></p>
<p><input type="file" name="F3" size="50"></p>
<p><input type="file" name="F4" size="50"></p>

<p><input type="submit" value="Submit"
name="B1"><input type="reset"
value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>

I'd appreciate any advice I can get. Thanks.

What happen if you change it back to a single upload?

I have cut out the form and re-inserted a single upload
set of codes and it works, which is why I think I may
have introduced something amiss. The problem is that I
really want to have four BROWSE buttons that will be
picked up by the SUBMIT button. Ant ideas?

It appears that the FP component doesn't support more than a single file upload at a time. In
general you can not modify web component code that is generated by FP and expect it to work, if the
page is re-opened in FP. There are 3rd party component available that do allow multiple file
uploads, but you need to check with your host to see if they have one or are willing to install one.

This will only work if your host allows it and activates that component of the FP
extensions.
