Set Container Field Data with FX.php

Featured Replies

Part of the web site I'm developing allows users to upload images. I've got this working so that the images are uploaded and moved to a known directory on within the web server's directory (uploads). I've been trying to figure out how to get this uploaded file into a container field in FileMaker 7. Using AddDBParam with the URL of the file isn't working.

How can I get the image into a container field?

Thanks,

Chuck

You could run a Script which uses AppleScript to load the image into a Container field.

Good Luck.

Well, if I had control over the fact that this is currently being run on a Windows server, I would do exactly that. But it seems like there should be a cross-platform solution that works regardless. Perhaps in the future when the client allows me to install a server at their location, and I can select a Mac, that will work, but right now I'm demoing the software on a Windows server.

Thanks,

Chuck

You can try VBScript

I think there is an imageimport plugin for filemaker that works for this purpose. Can't remember the name, but a year ago or so I used the demo and it worked.
