Re: [Flashcoders] File upload : getting Flash to know the new name
what you can do is have a script or remoting method that you can call that will generate a file name for you. you can then pass that string to the upload script.

RE: [Flashcoders] File upload : getting Flash to know the new name
The way that flash file upload works you really need to think about it a little differently. The way I do it is to send a command to the server *before* I do the upload, and I create a record for the upload in my database. This new ID comes back to flash, and when I do the upload, I add the id as a parameter in my upload call. So when the upload begins the upload function on the server side sees the ID of the file and associates it with the file that is being uploaded. If the upload is not completed successfuly within a certain amount of time I delete the ID. This is a bit more work, but it is, as far as I know, the only way of allowing flash to know what the file that it has uploaded is.

RE: [Flashcoders] File upload : getting Flash to know the new name
If you create a MD5 of the filename, why not create a MD5 within flash of the original name. MD5 classes can be found, here is one: http://www.meychi.com/archive/31.php -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens Rich Rodecker Verzonden: zaterdag 26 augustus 2006 0:48 Aan: Flashcoders mailing list Onderwerp: Re: [Flashcoders] File upload : getting Flash to know the new name as far as I've seen there's no way to return any values from a file upload.
