James--
I have your output file, but I've noticed a difference between your code and the original documentation:
Your code seems to call for a directory called "uploads"...
memberPath = (Server.MapPath("uploads") & "\" & membername)
...but the readme for the current complete zip says:
.. Installation
- Create a subdirectory for your attachments called "uploaded"
(ie c:\inetpub\wwwroot\forum\uploaded)
Which directory name should I be using, and where should I make changes so that they work together? (Can I just change instances of "uploads" to "uploaded" in your file?)
Sorry, since I have virtually zero understanding of what I'm looking at in all this code, the things that stick out enough for me to notice make me nuts!  |

| OK, it errored as installed, but works perfectly when "uploads" is changed to "uploaded" in the output file :) |

Yes, change "uploads" in 2 instances to reflect your upload directory.

BritishAndy, mine was just the outputFile.asp
Anyway, if it's only uploading in asc format, your problem sounds more like a server issue than a mod one. |

Can somebody help me decipher this javascript in the outputfile.asp file??? I assume this is the section of code that writes the image URL into the post but I don't understand it. What part of the code tells it to post the URL into the T_Message field of the FORUM_TOPICS table????
The code is on lines 76-83 and starts off like:
if (opener.document.PostTopic.Message.createTextRange && opener.document.PostTopic.Message.caretPos) {
var caretPos = opener.document.PostTopic.Message.caretPos;
caretPos.text = "\n\nImage Insert: and then the rest of the code....
This is really bugging me!!

Hi. My snitz forum is at http://www.thecgn.com/forum
I just installed Mike's file upload.
My questions are; (and please forgive me if it says somewhere in this post, but its 7 long pages and I dont have time to read it all)
1. Can the files people upload be deleted after a set amount of time (ie after 1 week in the upload folder it is automatically deleted?)
2. If the above question is possible, is there some message that will appear in place of the old attachment, or what happens to the old attachment, does it become a dead link?)
3. Can I set only certain users to upload files? If so, how?
Thanks for your time.

Term,
I don't see anything in the code that automatically delete's the file after a given time. Once it's uploaded it's there until you manually delete it. Not sure on question #3. I'll have to look at it again. |

Hello Everybody:
This Mod is Really Looking Good!
It would be a Nice addition in this order if...
The Adminstrator could Put a Limit on the Number of Files a Member could UpLoad.
The Adminstrator could Delete Chosen Members Files & Possibly Folders with 1 or 2 Clicks.
The Administrator Could Shut Off Violaters Upload Priveliges.
Thanks a Million for the Continual Advancement of this Mod! |
Thank You for Your Time!!!!!

I read through the list of files for this mod and I'm not sure if Mike is updating his version to reflect all the changes. Is there one file that can be downloaded to reflect all the changes submitted by other Snitz users?
Is someone actually updating one master version or do I need to go through all these pages and make the changes? |

Can anybody help me out here? I've tried to change this to make it past the URL into a different text box but I have had no luck |

Go to http://www.snitzbitz.com/mods/details.asp?Version=All&mid=67 and get Mikes File Attachment and the File Lister Add-on below it. Mikes hasn't been updated for some time, but the File Lister Add-on includes updated files for Mike's along with the ability for users to view and reuse their uploaded files. |

Some time ago I said (to James) that I was having trouble uploading using this mod, that text files uploaded fine but binaries didn't. I now think I have the answer.
I think the problem is that my ISP is using Chillisoft on a Cobalt server and the behavior of VBScript functions such as MidB, ChrB, LeftB, and AscB (used in outputFile.asp) depends on the byte ordering of the hardware platform, and the number of bytes used to represent Unicode characters in the system software.
The functions will produce different results on different operating systems.
I am interested to know if anyone has got this to work on a similar h/w platform to me.
I have tried many modifications but I can't get this to work. My only hope seems to be to use a php 'copy' command which does work well, but unfortunately (because of my lack of php knowledge) this is not going to integrate well with the rest of the forum code.
Any thoughts?
Andy.
update: I have now managed to write a php uploader for the Chillisoft platform. Works well but significantly different to Mike's original. http://www.itpositive.com/forum if you're interested. |

This is without a doubt one of the Best mods (from a useful/practical viewpoint) of 2002!
Thanks to all of you for this!
I have had just 2 things I wanted to change but one of them has been addressed with James's output.asp file with the img only if it is a img file, The other though I think is a coding problem that I have caused since I have way to many mods lol.
When I go to up load a file I have multiple header catagory images as the back ground. (tmpj cell imag mod)

| I implimented the file attachment mod onto the forums on my pws and it works great. However, I uploaded the forums to an outside server and now when I attempt to upload a file it takes me to "this page cannot be displayed." Are there settings I need to change on the "uploaded" file to ensure that users can upload to it? By the way, I am running it on a frontpage server, I am not sure if that makes a difference or not. |
