Hi all, I am trying to upload an image file from a form to an External Method so that it can be loaded as a blob into an Oracle database. I am having difficulty getting the file uploaded. Here is the form: <form action="execute_loadblob" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <p>Locate file to upload:</p> <input type="file" name="image" size="16"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Entry"> </form> ======================================================================= The external method is called from a DTML method called "execute_loadblob" which contains the call: <dtml-var expr="writeBlob(image)"> The external method is: import sys,os,string,DCOracle2 as dco def main(image): ... do something here with image, doesn't matter what ... return "Something was done" ============================================================= The gist of the error received, is that image is a " ZPublisher.HTTPRequest.FileUpload instance at 1046b04" instead of being something I can acutally manipulate. Why is this and how do I access either the file or the URL pointing to the file? TIA, Mark Evans
