This may not be an issue for your present problem but, if I'm not mistaken,
Mike, you need to have the attribute
ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" in your form tag if you use the input File
tag.

Subject: cffile problem uploading <newbie>
Greetings List.
I have a fusebox and a non-fusebox version of a simple upload form. I am
using cffile action=upload and of course, the non-fusebox version works and
the fusebox version throws an error stating:
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.<P>This attribute must be a form field name.<P>For example, if the
input file containing the uploaded file is named 'FileContents' you would
use the syntax: FILEFIELD="FileContents"<p>The error occurred while
processing an element with a general identifier of (CFFILE), occupying
document position (2:1) to (5:33).</p>
My form template is dsp_search_form.cfm and looks like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
<p>Enter the full path name of the file you wish to transfer, or press the
"Browse" button to look for it. Press "Send It!" to send it.</P>
<form method="post" action="index.cfm">
<table>
<TR>
<input type="hidden" name="fuseaction" value="process">
<b>Full Path Name:</b> <input type="File" name="MyFile">
</tr>
<TR>
<TD> </td>
<TD><input type="submit" value="Send It!"> <input type="Reset"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The "process" action is from template act_sendfile.cfm and looks like:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
<cffile action="UPLOAD"
filefield="attributes.MyFile"
destination="#attributes.TempDir#"
nameconflict="OVERWRITE">
<cfoutput><h4>#File.serverfile# uploaded!</h4></cfoutput>
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Can anyone see whats wrong?
Thanks
Mike
