RE: Weird CFFile behaviour with Mac IE5 upload

[Alex Skinner - Digital Dreams]

Why not check the form field for the existance of a \

even if the form field is not "" is shouldn't contain a \
unless a file has been selected

In addition check that the form field length is greater than 5

i.e   valid 3 letter extenstion + the . + at least one \

Subject: Weird CFFile behaviour with Mac IE5 upload


HI,

Has anyone found that using CFFile to upload a file from a Mac IE5 browser
behaves funny?

My precise problem is that if a form contains a <input type="file"
name="theFile"> field & it is left blank, CF will consider that a file has
been uploaded (empty file?). Using <cfif form.theFile NEQ ""> to check if
the file field was empty no longer works. It always contains a filename.

Anyone else found this? Anyone know a solution?

Cameron
