The FORM tag specifies that the method of the request is POST. This request is a
“Multipart/form-data” request. When you submit the form, the
UploadDocument() function is called.
Use the
INPUT tag to create the text box and the Browse button.
<INPUT TYPE=”TextBox”: To create text boxes only.•
<INPUT TYPE=file
: To create a combination of text box and the Browse•
button in the form. When you click Browse and choose any file, the file path of
the selected file displays in the text box linked with the Browse button.
You can use the INPUT tag to create the Submit button:
<INPUT TYPE=submit
VALUE=”Submit”>
When you click Submit, the UploadDocument() function is called. This function is
defined inside a script tag. It combines the information that has been entered in the
form to create a URL for the
addfile request, then sends this URL to QuarkXPress
Server for processing. The code for the
UploadDocument() function is as follows:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=”JavaScript”>
function UploadDocument() {
var URL;
URL = “http://” + UploadForm.MachineIP.value + “:”
+ UploadForm.Port.value + “/addfile/” +
UploadForm.NewName.value;
