The following example demonstrates how to use an HTML form to create a POST

request that uses the addfile request handler. The form looks like this:

To use this form:

Enter the name or IP address of the computer on which QuarkXPress Server is running.

Enter the port number in the port number field.

Enter the file name along with the extension in the file field. Click Browse if you need

to find the file on your computer. The file will be uploaded with this name.

Click Submit.

The file uploads to the document pool of the specified server. After the file is

successfully uploaded, the "File upload completed." alert is displayed.

For example, assume you want to upload a file named "Faces.pdf" (located at the root

of the C drive) to an instance of QuarkXPress Server running at IP address 202.201.92.34

and port 8080, and that you want the name of the uploaded file on the server to be

"NewFaces.pdf." Here's how you would accomplish this in the HTML form:

The HTML code to generate the above sample file is as follows:

<HTML>

<HEAD>

<TITLE>Test Addfile</TITLE>

function UploadDocument() {

var URL;

URL = "http://" + UploadForm.MachineIP.value + ":" +

UploadForm.Port.value + "/addfile/" + UploadForm.NewName.value;

UploadForm.action = URL;

}

</SCRIPT>

</HEAD>

<BODY>

<FORM ID="UploadForm" METHOD = "post" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"

onSubmit="UploadDocument()">

Please enter the name or IP of machine where QuarkXPress Server is running:

Please enter the port number on which QuarkXPress Server is running:

Please enter the new name (along with extension) with which file will be

uploaded:

Please select the file you want to upload: <INPUT TYPE=file
