perhaps i'm oversimplifying, but can't you use the ACCEPT="mime_type/file_type"
attribute of CFFILE in the upload? christopher olive, cto, vp of web development atnet solutions, inc. 410.931.4092 http://www.atnetsolutions.com -----Original Message----- From: Dave Carabetta [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2002 3:13 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Advanced CFCATCH Exception Types I would like to trap a CFFILE error using CFTRY/CFCATCH if the user submits a bad file type. I only want to allow them to upload .gif files. I can use the CFCATCH TYPE="Any" to trap it, but I was hoping that I could trap specifically for a bad file type. I noticed that there are a whole slew of "advanced" exception types starting with COM.* listed in the documentation, but I can't find one for a bad file type. Can one of those advanced types or a regular type be used other than "Any"? Thanks, Dave. _________________________________________________________________ Join the world's largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com ______________________________________________________________________ Why Share?
