Multiple Upload of Files Using Pure ASP Upload?

Question:

I am wondering if there is a way to use the Pure ASP Upload extension to upload multiple files? Ideally, I would like to have 4 or 5 File fields on a page to allow users to upload 1 - 5 different files to the server.

Is this at all possible?

Answer:

Sure, this is possible. Put multiple file fields in your form and Pure ASP Upload handles the rest for you. You only have to apply the extension once to the page, so it's independant of the number of file fields you will be using.

Be aware that all files will be uploaded to the same directory. The current version of the extension does not allow uploading to multiple folders.

Posting multiple files into differnet DB columns

May 10, 2002 by Jeremy Towns

I’m running MS access 2000 with Pure ASP Upload in insert multiple records into my Database. Is it possible to configure Pure ASP to insert each file into a different column, at the moment when I view the records in the DB they appear as - for example, text123, test1234, in the same column.

Any assistance would be much appreciated. Cheers.

Request.Form with Pure Asp Upload

March 25, 2003 by Eric Kaiser

I want to be able to dynamically build the upload form by having users enter the number of pictures they want to upload in a form field, then take that number and loop through the image form fields. Works great, but, when I submit the dynamically built form I get an error, "Can't use Request object with a binary read".

What is happening is the number value, which is received as Request.Form("numPics") is seen again when the form loops through to do the upload.

Any ideas on how to work around this?

Nevermind. This was happening because I did not put in a redirect page. Go figure.
