Upload - FP 2002 on unix

[gxdata]

With a FP 2002 web on a unix server that has FP extensions, can I implement
an upload link (for users to upload particular filetypes and file sizes
below 2Mb, say)?
I can liaise with the ISP to make sure that only partulcar filetypes are
allowed. I would assume that also i need to check out the uploads for
nasties like viruses, at some stage.

Any ideas? Is a later version of FP better?

TIA - Ian Thomas

Ian,

To my knowledge, I do not believe the file upload will work on Unix:

So it looks like I need a CGI solution, then.

Thanks for the KB link.

I have a script somewhere called "hobble upload". last I checked it was
gone from hotscripts.

It uses a php upload method so it'll work on your server. if you're
interested do a search and see if it's back, if it isn't I'll send you the
original zip.

I deployed it one time to test it out and it worked, was fairly easy to
deploy too.

That would be VERY helpful, if you can dig it up. Can you also reply on the
