How would I go about this? I tried changing the [FileReference > instance].name field but this is read only. On the php side I am not sure if > I can pass through other data with the file data. I did this with the php file... <?php if ($_FILES['Filedata']['name']) { $uploadDir = $_REQUEST['dir']."/"; $uploadFile = $uploadDir . basename($_REQUEST['fileName']); $uploaded = move_uploaded_file($_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile); echo $uploaded; } ?> and the line in the flash like so... file.upload("../../assets/php/uploadFile.php?fileName=" + theFileName + "&dir=" + theDir this way i was controlling the directory the files went into and the filenames of the uploaded files from the flash rather than the php. hth, tom. _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
