Andreas, you kindly posted a multipart/form-data script for uploading files via
HTTP with some instructions in a later email. Alas I am struggling still to get
HTTP upload working smoothly in REBOL.
Your solution is now __almost__ working for me.
But man I feel so dumb :-(
Some simple basic cgi object thang I am not grokking yet. I hope something can
help me.
I really want to get this cooking with Vanilla :-)
1. I saved the script as %upload-andreas.r [attached]
2. Called by a web form:
<form method="post" action="upload-andreas.r" enctype="multipart/form-data" />
<b>upload-andreas.r</b>
<p>Select an image or script file to upload </p>
<fieldset>
<legend>File to upload:<br /></legend>
<input type="hidden" name="MAX_SIZE" value="100000" /><br/>
Enter filename: <input type="file" name="filename" size="50" /><br/>
<input type="submit" value="upload" background-color: #FFFF00 /><br/>
</fieldset>
</form>
<p>
3. Then as you advised..

["multipart/form-data"]
[ decode-multipart-form-data system/options/cgi/content-type post-data ]
[ decode-cgi post-data ]
^^^^
This did not work :-(
** Script Error: tmp-post is missing its p-ct-dispo argument ** Where: do-boot
** Near: tmp-post
Q1: Why?
So I just tried a very minimal version:
A. tmp-post: decode-cgi post-data
ok no compaints.
But when I try this:
B. tmp-post: decode-multipart-form-data system/options/cgi/content-type
post-data
I keep getting the same Script Error as above.
So I stuck with the basic decode-cgi post-data version (A.)
write %test.jpg tmp-post
print rejoin [{<a href="test.jpg">tmp-post</a>}]
4.Select a jpeg file to upload from my form, et voila -> when I click on the
tmp-post link I can see the form headers and content of my Jpeg images as acii
like this:
-----------------------------7d22e4fe68
Content-Disposition: form-data; name"MAX_SIZE"
100000
-----------------------------7d22e4fe68
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="description"
describe me
-----------------------------7d22e4fe68
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="filename";
filename="E:\FLASH\jasonMX\buddha.jpg"
Content-Type: image/pjpeg
JFIFHH File written by Adobe Photoshop 5.2 .........etc etc
etc............
Q2: How to I access the tmp-post object? For example the filename or
description?
Q3: How to save just the image contents as a jpeg file, and link it for display.
Thanks very much for any help to crack this nut

REBOL [
Title: "decode-multipart-form-data"
Authors: ["Andreas Bolka" [EMAIL PROTECTED]]
testing: [ "Jason" [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-08-30]
Date: 2002-06-18
Version: 1.1
Purpose: {
Decodes POST-data encoded as "multipart/form-data" as defined by RFC
2388.
The output is compatible to 'decode-cgi wherever possible.
So the output contains a list of set-word's and values, one pair for
each data field.
example: [ field1: "foo" field2: "bar" ]
If the content type of one part of the form-data is not equal to
text/plain, then the value of the respective mime-part is an
object! with the following attribs: filename, type, content.
example: [
field1: "foo"
field2: make object! [
filename: "user.xml"
type: "text/xml"
content: ""
]
]
}
]
