Ability to upload a file using Javascript
Hello. I am new to BV and have run into a problem that I desperately need answered. I need the ability to allow a user to browse for a file on the desktop to be written/uploaded to the /tmp directory on the server. I have added the following code in my javascript to allow the user to browse:
<form action="./uploadfile.jsp" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-da
<INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="userfile" SIZE="35" MAXLENGTH="255">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Process" NAME="ProcData">
</form>
However, when the uploadfile.jsp is invoked, the BVI_Request is empty. There is an error in the log and the contents of the file is written to the log. How can I capture the contents in my uploadfile.jsp javascript? I need to write the file to the server for ftping to an appropriate dropbox area. Here is the log entry that results when run this (note: the contents of the file is merely This is a test):
