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!

Filter for uploading a file

Asked by Zvika in Active Server Pages (ASP)

Tags: file, filter, input, upload

I'm developing a site, and amajor part of the working with that site is uploading files to the site servers.
I have some third party softwares that deals with this uploading things just fine.
BUT in the browser, when the user clicks on the "Browse" button near the file field, he/she gets a browsing window from the operating system, but with filter "All Files (*.*)"  and the combo box shows two more options "Pictures (*.jpg, *.gif)" & "HTML (*.htm, *.html).
How can control those filters? i.e. I want the user to upload only Access files (*.mdb), and I block, by javascript, the optin to upload file that doesn't end with .mdb, but I want the browse window to show him only mdb files?
a simple example to the form upload field is here:

<form action="DocumentNew.asp" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" method="POST" name="DocumentNew">
file: <input type="file" name="filename" class="formtext" size="60">
<input type=submit>
</form>
