Hello folks,
I am experiencing a weird problem. I have the following code:
var request:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("http://localhost:9090/docapp/upload.jsp";);
var urlVars:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
urlVars.section_id = imageSection.selectedItem != null ?
imageSection.selectedItem.id : -1;
urlVars.title = imageTitle != null ? imageTitle.text : '';
request.data = urlVars;
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
fileRef.upload(request, "uploadfile");
The before executing this code I have called the browse method to
select the file. Now, the weird part is that the above code will only
send the file. Here is an excerpt of what it is sending grabbed using
tcpmon:
-------------------------------------------- begin excerpt
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
POST /docapp/upload.jsp HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:9090
Accept: */*
User-Agent: Shockwave Flash
Connection: Keep-Alive
Cache-Control: no-cache
Content-Length: 173137
Expect: 100-continue
Content-Type: multipart/form-data;

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Upload"
Submit Query
------------------------------8b0c1ed199a5--
-------------------------------------- end excerpt
-----------------------------------------------------
Now, if I change the send method to GET, I am, obviously, unable to
send the image file, but I am able to send a small text file and all
the parameters are sent in the query string.
I am running my tests on Ubuntu 7.10 using Flex SDK 2.0 and the latest
flash player.
Has anyone else experienced something similar to this?
Thanks in advance,
Fidel.
