Form - Submitting file (upload) woes

D

DianaH

Using FP 2003.
I'm trying to setup a page so that my the person I'm creating the site for
can upload files for me (for posting onto the website). Their email doesn't
provide for large (or even medium files), so this would overcome that
problem and it would put the file on the server where I can access it.

It's not working though! I've added the upload field and after I publish it
.... it searches for the files, but it doesn't upload. It prompts for the
username and password, but that's it. nadda

What am I doing wrong ... or is there something else I need ... to make
this work?
Thanks.

It looks like it has some good tips ... and some stuff I didn't setup.
In it says to right click the folder, select properties and select ... to
allow scripts, but it's greyed out. That'll be my homework for tomorrow
night. 'Thanks for the lead. I'll read up on that, for sure. Diana
