Jeff,

here is a section from a file upload form I use.  This is after the persion
has dynamically selected their destination within the base directory I set:
---------
<CFOUTPUT>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden"
                  NAME="dirname"
                  VALUE="#dir#">
</CFOUTPUT>

                Type or select the file to upload from your machine:<BR>
                
<INPUT TYPE="file"
      NAME="Filename"
      SIZE="30"
      MESSAGE="Type
      the file name here" ACCEPT="image/gif">
          <BR><BR>
          
<INPUT TYPE="submit"
          NAME="Submit"
          VALUE="Press to upload"
        </TD></TABLE>
        
</body>
</html>
------------------
the action form is:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> CFFILE Tag File Upload </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF"> 
<CFFILE ACTION="UPLOAD"
        FILEFIELD="filename"
        DESTINATION="#form.dirname#"
        NAMECONFLICT="OVERWRITE">

<CFOUTPUT>  begin of report back to user

------------
hope this helps

Subject: Uploading a file?


I have an application where files need to be uploaded and am not sure how to
structure my code so that the appropriate info is passed. On the form page
(dsp_page) I have it submitting back to the index.cfm with a fuseaction of
upload. 

My action page keeps choking saying the following: In order to upload a file
from a form submission you must specify a FILEFIELD attribute to indicate
which form field contains the uploaded file.

Thanks for the help,

        Jeff Giesbrecht
