Actually, what I'm trying to do is simulate the FILE input field to
Upload a file against a CFML page. Strangely, I've tried and tried and
the CF page doesn't fail or error, it just doesn't upload the file.
It acts like the contentType isn't being set or as if it doesn't
recognize the fact that I'm trying to UPLOAD a file.
Again, here's the FLASH:
======================================
function respond(){
goToAndPlay("My Scene",1);
stop();
}
function upload(){
dtsVars = new LoadVars();
dtsVars.myfile="c:\test.txt";
dtsVars.onLoad=respond;
dtsVars.contentType="multipart/form-data";
dtsVars.sendAndLoad("http://192.168.0.2/upload.cfm",dtsVars,"POST";);
}
upload();
stop();
Here's the CFML to process the upload:
======================================
<cfif isdefined("myfile")>
<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="myfile" destination="d:\"
nameconflict="MAKEUNIQUE">
<cfoutput>&start=1&myfile=#myfile#&success=true</cfoutput>
<cfelse>
<cfoutput>&start=1&myfile=failed&success=false</cfoutput>
</cfif>
Anyone have any clues? I'm going to try Matt's idea with the chromeless
window if I can't actually use ActionScript.
Does anyone from Macromedia have a suggestion? Can you upload files to
CF from FLASH ???

Simulate input field?
Why don't you just use the dynamic text field - check the borders.
set it's property to dtsVars.myfile - so it pops in "c:\test.txt" so it
looks like you are actually submitting the form....
perhaps I am missing what you intend.
Also on teh SendAndLoad - you don't need both urls.... it would look
like
dtsVars.sendAndLoad("http://192.168.0.2/upload.cfm",dtsVars,"POST";);
Lastly - to check it the send and load was a success you would do -
dtsVars.onLoad = function(success){
if(success){
// whatever you want flash to do if send and load was
successful like
goToAndPlay("My Scene",1);
}
Hope I actually answered your question :)
