But I need some help with a certain part of it. This is my lack of asp skill showing through again

Basically I've changed it so that when a user uploads an image, (yes I''ve set it up only for images!) When finished, I've changed the scrip to insert the image code instead of the download code. What I would like to do is be able for this to work when posting a new topic. When I try it on a new topic, it gives me page not found but the file is uploaded! If I refresh the page it comes up saying finished... but does not present the user with the link to insert the image code in his/her new topic. So my question is, could someone help me out with this? Here is the link to my modified UploadEngine.txt file for anyone to look at or use if they like. You may notice that this file contains no font tags, I am trying to convert the whole forum over to style sheets and don't want any font tags. Sorry, you'll have to put them in again to use it...

Cheers Till

The reason your are probably having problems, is that it needs a topic ID, which you do not have until after you create the topic.

To make it work for a topic

in post.asp look for

'#################################################################################
'## File Attachment Stuff
'#################################################################################
if strRqMethod = "Reply" or _
strRqMethod = "Topic" or _
strRqMethod = "Edit" or _
strRqMethod = "ReplyQuote" or _
strRqMethod = "TopicQuote" then


and add the line in red , this will give you the button

Now to get it to update, in uplaodengine,

add the lines in red

TopicID = objUpload.Form.Item("TOPIC_ID")
ReplyID = objUpload.Form.Item("REPLY_ID")
if ReplyId = "" then
ReplyID = -1
end if
if TopicID = "" then
TopicID = -1
end if



Now in post_info.asp, look for this piece of code

'###################### Attach Files #######################
strSQL = "SELECT MAX(REPLY_ID) AS MAXID FROM " & strTablePrefix & "REPLY "
strSQL = strSQL + "WHERE TOPIC_ID = " & Request.Form("TOPIC_ID")
strSQL = strSQL + " AND R_AUTHOR = " & rs("MEMBER_ID")
set rs2 = my_Conn.Execute (strSql)
intReplyID = rs2("MAXID")
rs2.close
strSQL = "UPDATE " & strTablePrefix & "USERFILES "
strSQL = strSQL & "SET F_REPLY_ID = " & intReplyID
strSQL = strSQL & " WHERE MEMBER_ID = " & rs("MEMBER_ID")
strSQL = strSQL & " AND F_REPLY_ID = -1 AND F_TOPIC_ID =" & Request.Form("TOPIC_ID")
my_Conn.execute (strSQL)
'###################### Attach Files #######################


This is what does the update to userfiles, to set reply_id, Copy the code, and then look for

strSql = "INSERT INTO " & strTablePrefix & "TOPICS (FORUM_ID"


Scroll down to the end of the strSQL line untill you come to the

if Err.description <> "" then
err_Msg = "There was an error = " & Err.description
else
err_Msg = "Updated OK"
end if


Ok, Now the section of code that you copied, insert it between the else and the err_Msg = "Updated OK"

Now, change the code to look like this

'###################### Attach Files #######################
strSQL = "SELECT MAX(TOPIC_ID) AS MAXID FROM " & strTablePrefix & "TOPICS "
strSQL = strSQL + "WHERE TOPIC_ID = -1"
strSQL = strSQL + " AND T_AUTHOR = " & rs("MEMBER_ID")
set rs2 = my_Conn.Execute (strSql)
intTopicID = rs2("MAXID")
rs2.close
strSQL = "UPDATE " & strTablePrefix & "USERFILES "
strSQL = strSQL & "SET F_TOPIC_ID = " & intTopicID
strSQL = strSQL & " WHERE MEMBER_ID = " & rs("MEMBER_ID")
strSQL = strSQL & " AND F_REPLY_ID = -1 AND F_TOPIC_ID = -1"
my_Conn.execute (strSQL)
'###################### Attach Files #######################



I think that ought to do it

Thanks HuwR, you're a gem! But I didn't need all the other stuff, I already got the button to show up in all post pages, just the Uploadengine wasn't updating after the upload. All that was needed was the updated code for the Uploadengine.asp and the small changes highlighted in this quote. Now it works in everything even private messages

Thanks again...

Cheers Till

I've been meaning to add it to the topics myself for a while, but 2000+ posts, not to mention the emails takes up a lot of your time.

set rs2 = my_Conn.Execute (strSql)
intTopicID = rs2("MAXID")




I get errors with this code (intTopicID)
and I had to replace one line

strSQL = strSQL + "WHERE TOPIC_ID = -1"
with
strSQL = strSQL + "WHERE FORUM_ID = " & Request.Form("FORUM_ID")


Thanks!

antor,


that should be OK, I hadn't tested it myself.

Does this over ride the file uploads? It works for uploading Images now, but it thinks files are Images also and will not put a dowhload link.

To see what it's doing check out my demo site.

Thanks,

Till's uploadengine is specifically for images. so yes, if you replaced it that is your problem.

That is correct, if you read my original thread, you will see that it is only for images and not attachments. This was done to make it easy for people to upload an image and then insert it in their post, it will not insert a link to an attachment. I'm going to modify it so that you have the option to insert the attachment or the image, but have not done this yet. I will post it here when I have done so

I am lost....

I want to make it so my member may place images in their posts without having there own server. But I want it to show up in the post itself, not as a file attachment.

I have read this thread a few times and do not know exactly what it does. If someone could help me out it would be much appreciated.

Thanks
