Would be nice, but can't because when the user gets to the main form, he makes selections that fill in the form and based on these selections the new file name is created (plus there 20 char addition). like they would choose: section1, subdiv2, subset3, new file name: s1-sd2-ss3-20chars.jpg

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 ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm 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
