ok, maybe I need to thank about redoing this. I have a main form/window that contains a large form (many, many fields), that without having to reload/refresh this form (major pain to keep all the info).
On this form is a subsection that allows the user to upload a file. When pressed the button opens a popup window that lets the user enter 20 chars to add to the file name and creates the file name based on information passed from the main form and these 20 chars. User submits file for upload and then I want to return the new file name back to the main form, after the file upload has be successful and give user a notice that upload was successful. also in the process doing all needed checks. This would be simple if I didn't have to keep the main form open and then take the new file name back to it after the upload. Problems: If I could do it all from the one popup I can return the new file name from there, but so far I can't seem to do this, because <CFFILE> needs a from field(file) passed to it. Once I leave the popup I don't know how to get the file name back to the main form. thanks for any suggestions ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
