file upload problem

[samuel]

I have the following problem:

I create a form with a file upload field. I proceed to
create a file folder where the files should be stored.
Also, right click on the form, I create the database,
click on options, select the file folder (which by the
way, on the properties I have the following options
checked: allow files to be browsed, allow anonymous
upload to this folder, and allow uploaded files to
overwrite existing files) on the File upload tab, and
select a confirmation page where I should be taken after
I click submit.

Two things happen:

1) After I click submit, I do not get the confirmation
page, but instead I get the same page where the form is
(as if it was refreshed).

2) I check the file folder and there are no files.

Any thoughts?


Thanks in advance,

Samuel

Are the FP Server Extensions Installed? May we have the URL of the page?

Re 2) actually you can upload and save to a DB see:

| Are you sure you saved the page with a .asp filename

| Right. FrontPage can't upload files and save results to a
| database from the same form.
