: I build a form in this way
: <Form action="readform.asp" Name="myform1"
: method=post enctype="multipart/form-data">
: <input type=text name=textfield
: value="value">
: <input type=file name=field3
: value="c:\time.doc">
: <input type=submit name=submit
: value=submit>
: </form>
: then how can read the field out in the proceding
: asp?
: <%=Request.Form ("textfield")%> just
: returns an empty value
I haven't done any ASP work, but with Perl you have to look for the boundary that exists above and below your submitted file, and then parse out the information between it. If you don't want to do it yourself (it's not that bad, really... try it anyway), check out CGI.pm, which has a routine for doing it for you.
