Please select the file you want to upload:

</FORM>

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">

creates the

Submit button on the form.

When you click Submit, the UploadDocument() function is called. This function is defined inside a script

tag. This function combines the information entered in the form to create a URL for the addfile request

and sends this URL to QuarkXPress Server for processing. The code of the

UploadDocument() function is as follows:

function UploadDocument() {

var URL;

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

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

UploadForm.action = URL;

}

</SCRIPT>

Declare a variable URL. This variable combines the information entered in the form to create an addfile

request. The UploadForm.MachineIP.value statement retrieves the IP address or the name of your

computer. The other information is also retrieved and combined. Finally, the statement

UploadForm.action = URL; sends the URL to QuarkXPress Server for processing.
