Upload Button

I

Inquiring Minds

I am creating a site that I would like my visitors to be able to upload files
to my server from my website. What/how would I go about doing that? I've
seen the upload buttons before, but I can't seem to find the procedures on
how to accomplish that process when searching online. I am using FP2003.

Your assistance would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Thank you for the repsonse, however, I would also like to in form fields that
would populate a database as well as store the uploaded filed in the database.

Yes
If you don't know how to hand code server side coding look at the Database Interface wizard in FP
See http://spiderwebwoman.com/resources/diwtipsandtricks.asp

How does one go about implementing a file upload feature if they are using
Windows XP Home? My website is hosted on a server that has FrontPage Server
Extensions, IIS 6, ASP support, etc. Is there a reason why the operating
system on the development machine prevents one from using the Form Upload
feature in FrontPage 2003?

Thanks.

1)The Form Upload Feature must be enabled and configured in the FP 2002
server extensions by the host
2) You manage the form upload feature by opening your remote web in
FrontPage, and doing it there.

Then you will need to use a custom script to enter the data
into the database.

Tom, I checked with my webhost and the File Upload feature is definitely
enabled. However, when I open up the remote website in FrontPage 2003 the
File Upload feature is grayed out. Do I need to have something other than
FrontPage 2003 running on my development machine? As I stated before, I'm
running Windows XP Home version and I have Office 2003 Professional
installed, if that factors into the equation.

Thanks

Brian

If it's greyed out on your remote web site, there is something wrong with
the host's configuration. Could be permissions, can't say for sure. They
need to review the link I sent you.

I'm quite confident there isn't a problem with the host's configuration.
They went into my account and were able to create a page with the File
Upload feature so I'm assuming things must be fine on the server end. Is
there anything else that could be causing the problem? Also, I've noticed
that the Group Box option for forms is grayed out. Could this be a related
problem?

Thanks.

The Group Box will be greyed out if Browsers is set to include
Netscape in
Tools->Page Options-Authoring tag (FP2003), or the Compatibility tag
in other versions.

I have not succeeded in finding a way to make File Upload grey out
in FP2003, using server based webs, disc based webs or even a loose
page.

I finally figured out why the File Upload and Group Box features were grayed
out. In the Page Options dialog on the Authoring tab SharePoint Services was
checked, which I assume is the default for whatever reason. For the hell of
it I unchecked it since my web host does not provide SharePoint support.
This one change then made the File Upload and Group Box features available.
I wish the documentation would have mentioned this as I never would have
looked there if you hadn't mentioned looking there concerning the Group Box
problem. There are a few other things that don't seem to be working as they
should but I'm going to do some more playing around before I ask more
questions.

Thanks for putting me on the right track.
