November 24, 200322 yr Dear All, I am buildang a CV database system to be used on my companies intranet. I have a simple database which is accessed by web pages to add and search records . All works fine, but I need to find a way for users to upload CVs to a network drive via the web pages. Is there a way I can do this and somehow link the documnet to the database record? So that when record details is displayed the user can push a button to view the CV. Thanks BW
November 24, 200322 yr IMHO, not possible just with FM. But with other technologies like PHP, Lasso, VB or AppleScript it can be done. To link document to record is easy -- see Open URL.
November 25, 200322 yr Author I've been trying to use the FileUpload javascript object with no joy. Is there anybody out there who can tell me how to use this? Please ) Thanks
November 26, 200322 yr IMHO -- JavaScript cannot do that. Maybe Java, but I still doubt that. They usually play just in "sandbox"
November 26, 200322 yr How is your server setup? What web-server scripting resources do you have? Like Anatoli, I don't know of a Javascript FileUpload object. You could do it with a JavaApplet and a JavaServlet. However, I recommend that you use PHP to manage the HTTP/Form File Upload and the database update. This can be done quite simply! Some other threads exist on this subject. All the best. Garry
