The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

HTTP Post & WebClient

Asked by malramsay in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net

Tags: multipart

Hi,

I need to create an app that checks a directory, determines if there are any text files and if there are, posts them to another server in a similar way to the HTML page below. It must include the "encType="multipart/form-data"" part.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<META content="MSHTML 6.00.2800.1400" name=GENERATOR></HEAD>
<BODY>
<FORM action="https://asp.mydomain.com/myfolder/index.cgi" method="post" encType="multipart/form-data">
<INPUT type="file" name="linkfile"> <INPUT type="submit" value="Submit Query" name="Send File">
<INPUT type="hidden" value="MyLink" name="E">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>

I've tried using the HTTP Post method below, but it doesn't seem to work. Is this the right way to do it or is there some other way? Should I be using a VB.NET application anyway? How does "encType="multipart/form-data"" work in .NET? Is there a better way to do it? The computer doesn't have IIS etc on it, so I'm not sure if a ASP.Net app is viable....?

Dim strAddress As String = "https://asp.mydomain.com/myfolder/index.cgi"
Dim strFile as string = "C:/MyDir/test.txt"
Dim myWebClient As New WebClient
Dim arrResponse As Byte() = myWebClient.UploadFile(strAddress, "POST", strFile)
Dim strResponse As String = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(arrResponse)

Regards,
Malcolm
