Re: Cfform upload - Form Field contains no file
I have re-written the code and it is working, except that the renaming of the
files (filefield=#variables.filename#) part is not working. When I dump (see
code below) the session variable that I am assigning to filefield, I get the
correct result, but the filename is not changed on upload when I check them at
where there are stored.
!--- Assign the productID to a session variable ---
cflock timeout=20 scope=Session type=Exclusive
cfset Session.ExtraProductImgName = URL.Cnsmr_ProductID
/cflock
!--testing for the value of session variable --
cfdump var=#Session.ExtraProductImgName#
!---create variable to hold destination of uploaded files---
cfset upLoadDestination = #ExpandPath('images/consumer/')#
cfif isdefined(form.upload)
cfloop index=i from=1 to=#Session.numberoffields# step=1
cfset filename = #Session.ExtraProductImgName# #i#
!--- cfif evaluate(variables.filename) neq ---
cffile action=UPLOAD destination=#upLoadDestination#

/cfloop
!--- Delete the session variable after uploading files related to
this particular ProductID ---

Fawzi,
Are you saying that you removed the nested cf-tags and the problem persists?
If that is what you are saying, please post your new code as edited, so we
can see what else might be wrong.

Re: Cfform upload - Form Field contains no file
cffile action=upload DOES NOT rename files. it just moves the
uploaded file from the temp upload dir on the server to the dir on the
server you specify in the DESTINATION attribute.
depending on the value of NAMECONFLICT attribute, this action will
either overwrite a file with the same name if it already exists in the
destination folder, or will append a sequential number to the file name.
to rename a file you should use cffile action=rename.

this: cfinput type=File name=cfoutput#variables.filename#/cfoutput / is just wrong. you can't nest cf tags like that, and you do not need to: cf automatically evaluates variables in cf tag attributes: cfinput type=file name=#variables.filename# will do just fine. whay cf throws that error is a different issue. my guess would be because you are giving a wrong value to FILEFIELD attribute of cffile tag on the form's action page...

Re: Cfform upload - Form Field contains no file
filefield=#variables.filename# the FILEFIELD attribute of cffile tag must contain the NAME of your input type=file form element. NOT the VALUE of that field, or some arbitrary value - just the name of file input field.
