Easy question (?)

Hi,
I've written a DHTML application (a loan application) that will use a *.dll to do validation, etc. on the fields in the webpages. At the end, the end user clicks on submit, and a module will dump all the values of the fields out to a comma-delimited text file.

However, I need to get the text file back to the server. I can create a text file on the client machine using FileSystemObject (which doesn't help) and the only other information I can find is on RDS (Remote Data Service) but that is for accessing databases remotely.

Any ideas how I can accomplish this and salvage the code I've already written? (I know now that I should have done all this thru ASP, but I just learned that not too long ago...)

Thanks in advance for your help.

If your server is configured to allow HTTP uploads, you may be able to make an HTTP "PUT" request, which would upload your text file. I don't know if that'll work for your app/config, but it's an idea...

Well you could always do something like this :

Code:

---

Open "c:\localfile.txt" For Input As #1
    Dim requestString As String
    Dim tempString As String
    requestString = "somefile.asp?filecontents="
    tempString = Replace(Input(Lof(1), 1), vbCrlf, "///")
Close #1

Then you would request a file off the webserver :
requestString & tempString

---

And you would have now passed the contents of the file to the server via ASP.... or you could use some other script technology.
