Hello

I am a rookie at javascript and html. I am using the <input type=file>

Once I get the path of the file I wish to up load it to my server
(iSeries). In The <form action="?????????"> what do I need to have to upload the file to a directory on the server. Please excuse the simplistic request. Any help would be appreciated.

You need server side script to process your request.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

I will admit upfront that I am new at attempting a upload.

What I really need is some sample code of the up load script
that will run on my server (iseries).

Or to be pointed in the right direction to do some research.

If anybody else reading this thinks they can help it will be very much appreciated.

Vladdy, thanks again for reponding.

Actually, javascript is not necessary. Just HTML (for your form) and some sort of server side language (PHP, ASP, Perl/CGI) to handle the file upload...

Thanks for your reply.

I understand the html side of it .

Where I am Confused is when you say I need some sort of srver side language, example: ASP,CGI.

Could You expound on that for me. I have been working for over 30 years on IBM and mid ranges. I feel like a babe in the woods seeing how little I know about this side of things, but I am willing to learn.

Thanks

I am only framiliar enough with PHP to be able to help you. I know a bit of Perl/CGI, but really prefer PHP. I don't know any ASP. So, does your server support PHP?
