I am writing a flex app that lets users upload a file to our server remotely. I use the fileReference.upload command to send the file to a server side script (.aspx) that will save it in an 'uploads' folder in the wwwroot on the server. I am having problems getting the server side script to work.. I have NO experience with .NET programming and found this script online:dim myFile as HttpPostedFile=Request.Files(0)
myFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~") & "uploads/" & myFile.FileName)
Can someone explain why this wont work with fileReference.upload()?Alternatively, I found this script (which includes a form):<%@ Import namespace="System.IO"%>
<html>
<head>
<title>Uploading a File</title>
<script language="VB" runat="server">
Sub Upload_Click(source As Object, e As EventArgs)
If Not (uploadedFile.PostedFile Is Nothing) Then
Try
Dim postedFile = uploadedFile.PostedFile
Dim filename As String = Path.GetFileName(postedFile.FileName)
Dim contentType As String = postedFile.ContentType
Dim contentLength As Integer = postedFile.ContentLength
postedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~") & "uploads/" & filename)
message.Text = postedFile.Filename & " uploaded" & _
"<br>content type: " & contentType & _
"<br>content length: " & contentLength.ToString()
Catch exc As Exception
message.Text = "Failed uploading file"
End Try
End If
End Sub
</script>
</head>
//<body>
//<form enctype="multipart/form-data" runat="server">
//Select ZIPPED Shapefile to Upload:
//<input id="uploadedFile" type="file" runat="server">
//<p>
//<input type=button id="upload"
//value="Upload"
//OnServerClick="Upload_Click"
//runat="server">
//<p>
//<asp:Label id="message" runat="server"/>
//</form>
//</body>
</html>
This successfully uploads the file to the server, but then i run into the problem of somehow telling my flex app that the file was uploaded successfully so I can continue with the flex code...Any suggestions?Thanks!
