Hey guys Im using dreamweaver mx 2004 and I would like to have a page on my site where customers can upload their own videos, but I want the video to be sent to my email first for review. From there I will load them on to the site myself. How would I go about directing the upload button to send the video to my email? Are there any references you can direct me too? Any help would be great! Thank you so much Lisa

You will have to use a server-side code for this like ASP or PHP.

There are several email components on the net.
For example :

What is that exactley? When I make the "upload now" button in dreamweaver how would I direct it to send the video to my email? Someone else had told me to use ASPUpload, have you heard of that? Is that ASP like you mentioned?

ASPUpload is a component that gives you the ability to upload files to your webserver via an ASP script.

Here is an example code of it :
<HTML>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF">
<FORM METHOD="POST" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="UploadScript1.asp">
<INPUT TYPE="FILE" SIZE="40" NAME="FILE1"><BR>
<INPUT TYPE="FILE" SIZE="40" NAME="FILE2"><BR>
<INPUT TYPE="FILE" SIZE="40" NAME="FILE3"><BR>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Upload!">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>

On submit of this form run this script (in this case Uploadscript1.asp) :
<HTML>
<BODY>
<%
Set Upload = Server.CreateObject("Persits.Upload")
Count = Upload.Save("c:\upload")
Response.Write Count & " file(s) uploaded to c:\upload"
%>
</BODY>
</HTML>

The first line of the ASP script simply creates an instance of the AspUpload object. The second line calls the Save method of the component which actually performs the upload.

If you want to see more examples of this component, you can take a look at http://www.aspupload.com/manual_simple.html

There is also a trial version (30 days) of it.
Maybe you should try this firstly. If it suits your needs you can purchase it after.

There are several other components that can do this, maybe you should have a look at these too?
