Code for upload file in classic asp

Step 2: Opening binary data posted through your form Unlike regular form inputs with which you have likely worked in the past, files are sent as binary data and can't be manipulated exactly as a string. Also, different browsers send these files in slightly different ways, so it is probably easiest to open up all of the data posted and search through it to find how the different inputs are separated, then try to figure out which is the file.

Notice that as you work with binary data, you use functions that look a lot like string manipulation functions except they all end with the letter "B". They work just the same, but they are meant to handle binary data.

It turned out to be a long series of dashes followed by a digit number. I have no idea what it means and one called "allData" which has all of the rest of the data posted to the handler.

First notice that the first line of each input is the content disposition. The second line lists the content type, but it is blank unless this input is a file. So I'm going to scroll through the inputs and discard them unless this second line has a content type. I'm going to use one function which converts binary data to the equivalent ascii characters, and a subroutine which saves the file. Yes this does work for binary files. I tested it with several image files.

There is a separate object called an ADO. STREAM which is supposed to be used for moving around binary files, but I couldn't get it to work for this application, and since the plain ol' textstream works OK, I will leave it like this. Please give me any comments. I look forward to any feedback. Jared Aug 16 '07 Follow Post Reply 18 mylo 8 Thank you, for the code - it worked indeed, even was capable of processing multipple files.

You do not require third party scripts to upload a file with Classic ASP. There is no such thing as "Classic ASP server. Wow, 6 years later you come with this helpful comment. What part of 'scripts' or 'dll-free' you misunderstood?

At that time and earlier, it was common for hosting services to provide server installed components such as Persits AspUpload to simplify this routine, hence checking with the hosting services which one was available. Really, really helpful insights you had.
