of Type File

Thank you. I was able to move on pretty soon after my initial post. I had a basic misunderstanding. One nice thing I discovered is that the development platform I am using is much more simple than any or the other examples in the Samples area. So I was working too hard trying to translate those samples in to my enviroment.

Here is my draft code for processing the upload, moving image and thumb to the proper folder and adding a record to a table for each image:

strImagePath   = "[PathAlias.Image_Path]\\"+ session.album
strThumbsPath = "thumbs\\"+ session.album

if file.exists(strImagePath) = .f.
  file.dir_create(strImagePath)
end if
if file.exists(strThumbsPath) = .f.
  file.dir_create(strThumbsPath)
end if

dim tbl as p
tbl=table.open("[PathAlias.ADB_Path]\photoimage")
	tbl.enter_begin()
		tbl.User_id = session.ulink
		tbl.Albumid = session.album
		tbl.Filename = SourceFile_1.filename
	tbl.enter_end()
tbl.close()	

file.from_blob(strImagePath+"\\"+ SourceFile_1.filename,SourceFile_1.data)
file.from_blob(strThumbsPath+"\\"+Thumbnail1_1.filename,Thumbnail1_1.data)
file.from_blob(strThumbsPath+"\\"+Thumbnail2_1.filename,Thumbnail2_1.data)

Not directly. I already had a list of field names using a function such as request.raw which lists them all out, in the same fashion you did below. I had a basic misunderstanding on how to extract the value from each field. Somewhere in your documentation I got the impression that all fields might be Type=File. POST is a new area to me, and that was the cause.

I am on to bigger problems, making sure java installs and the process works on all browsers. Java and ActiveX components behave differenty in the demo - ActiveX will upload multiple files giving one Demo warning dialog at the start, but will complete the upload. Java gives that same warning on EACH file that is being uploaded. Using the same upload script, ActiveX processes the upload, but Java does, or at least SourceFile_1 is always blank and it errors out. I am sure this is my own bug in my script.
