Once CFFILE has uploaded the file, you can use the CFFILE vars to get the original file name. For starters, try outputting some of these:
CFFILE.ServerFile CFFILE.ClientFileName CFFILE.ClientFileExt And you'll get the hang of it. -----Original Message----- From: S R [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, March 11, 2002 9:46 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFFILE/GetFileFromPath Problem Hi everyone, I've ran into a weird problem I can't get around. I'm using the CFFILE tag to upload some files. As you know, you have to use the enctype="multipart/form-data" attribute within the CFFORM tag for CFFILE to work. But this causes a problem with the GetFileFromPath function because when I'm uploading pdf's its converting the names of the files to a .tmp file instead of a .pdf. How can I get around this?
