file upload form enctype="multipart/form-data

kbuska525 · kbuska525

I'm upload a file using cffile upload and that seems to work fine except I need
to use enctype="multipart/form-data on the form side. This isn't a problem
except when I try to get the filename of the file i'm uploading by using
#form.file# it gives me some file back to the coldfusion server.

Any ideas on how i can read the filename so that I can insert the filename
into a database?

Thank you,
Ken

Don't use #form.File#, after the file is uploaded use #CFFILE.serverFile#
variable.
