javascript thread: Upload Function & Automation Server Errors


Message #1 by "Mike" <9jmc@q...> on Tue, 29 Jan 2002 18:16:47
Hi, I'm not sure if this question is too basic but I'm having difficult 
deciding which things sure be on the server vs. the client side.

Here goes,

I've got a webpage that displays the contents of a folder.  I'm trying to 
implement an upload function.  Basically I've got a file field and a 
button and when you click on the button it uploads the file to the 
server.  I've made sure that the server is allowing scripting and has 
write access but I keep getting "Automation Server can't create object".  
I managed to get it to work locally, reading and writing to the same 
system but when I implement it, I get this error.

Here's my code so far...

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0">
<TITLE></TITLE>
<SCRIPT ID=clientEventHandlersJS LANGUAGE=javascript>
<!--

function button1_onclick() {

var fs, file, s; 

fs = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"); 

file = fs.GetFile(file1.value); 

file.copy("backup.txt");

}

//-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<INPUT id=file1 type=file name=file1>
<INPUT id=button1 type=button value=Upload name=button1 
LANGUAGE=javascript onclick="return button1_onclick()">

</BODY>
</HTML>


Thanks for any help,

- Mike
