Hello, I've tried numerous ways to try to export a file attachment to a temp directory in the actual filesystem, but have failed to do so. Does anyone know a way to do this? I can export the file to the zope file system, but I would like to export it to an actual directory outside of zope (e.g. /home/user/files/). Thanks for anyone who has insight on this. html page: <FORM ACTION="mypage" METHOD="POST" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="attach" VALUE=""> python code: import string import re import time form=context.REQUEST.form REQUEST=context.REQUEST if (form['attach'].filename != ''): mimename = form['attach'].filename mimearray = mimename.split(".") if (len(mimearray) > 1): mimetype = mimearray[-1] else: mimetype = "txt" filename = "f" + str(ad_id) + "." + mimetype new_id = "old_" + str(ad_id) content_type=form['attach'].headers['Content-Type'] if content_type.find('image') != -1: #.find() is a method in Python2.0< if hasattr(context.upload, filename): context.upload.manage_delObjects(filename) context.upload.manage_addImage(filename, form['attach'], filename) else: context.upload.manage_addImage(filename, form['attach'], filename) else: if hasattr(context.upload, filename): context.upload.manage_delObjects(filename) context.upload.manage_addFile(filename, form['attach'], filename) else: context.upload.manage_addFile(filename, form['attach'], filename) --Daniel
