Cascade Record & Image Deletes
This tutorial is the third of a three part series on image delete options. Unlike the other two tutorials we will be not working with George Petrov's Pure ASP upload behavior on this page. Instead we will look at how to remove related records and the images associated with them when deleting a master record. By controlling orphaned records we keep the database tables clean and our applications run faster with fewer resources consumed. It only makes sense to remove images associated with the deleted records as well, again conserving server resources. Read MoreMultiple delete using Javascript

Read MoreMultiple Image Delete & Remove Options for Pure ASP Upload
This tutorial is the second of a three part series on image delete options using George Petrov's Pure ASP upload. The first shows how to handle image delete and remove options on an update form with a single image. This tutorial looks at update forms with multiple image fields.
