Title: File upload
Post by: Rene Simons on May 23, 2016, 05:02:35 AM

Hi,

When I do a file upload, is there a way to get the FROM location of the uploaded file?

Cheers,
Rene

Right after the user has selected the file - and before NT starts fiddling with the name -  your file upload field will contain that value, I think.

So, in your SaveFile::loc:filename  Routine - immediately after the code statement - you should be able to get at it.

no, it's specifically not sent. It's a security thing and it's not even available at the JavaScript level in the browser.

Hi Rene,

My bad. I was testing it on my laptop and picked the file from somewhere in the web folder. So folder names were almost alike Sorry about giving you false hope.
