Hi,



How can I allow my web site users to attach a word

document and then insert it to an Oracle table.



I know that <input type=file> will allow users to

browse their file system and select a file.  But how

would my web server recognize that c:\myfile.doc is in

the client's hard drive not the server's.



Second what is syntax for inserting the file into the

Oracle column defined as Long Row.



Thanks



Khaled

Hi



If you have a lot of time you can build your own upload component, but the 

shortest path would be to donwload a component from say 

(softartisans.com).The component will let you upload any file to your 

servers hdd or a database (blob). You also need to use <FORM 

ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> in your form and <type=file> in your file 

field.
