Multiple Image uploads

Multiple Image uploads

In data assist want to allow people to upload up to 6 images and to insert the image names into an sql table.

(I believe that the File Upload does not allow this and is limited to one image upload per page).

Is the any way of carrying this out with Web assist software?

Thank you

John

add 6 file fields to the page. Add 6 file upload behaviors.


you will need to have 6 columns in the table to store the file names.
in the insert record behavior, bind each column to the server file name variable from the appropriate Uploaded File binding group.

Many thanks Jason

I have the idea now and its working with several images.

I have a small question explained on the attached image perhaps you can give me a pointer please.

The 9 in the image you post is the name of the file field for that binding group, each file upload behavior will have it's own binding group with the file field name in parenthesis.

in the image uplaod, you have set it to create 2 copies of the image, one using the [FileName] for the name, the other using [FileName]_thumb for the name.

the [fileName] binding is for the large image, the [FileName]_thumb binding is for the resized image you are createing

I am still struggling to know which Item to select from
Data Assist
Insert Single Record
Bindings
to connect to an image.

As you can see in the attached images
I have various _thumb (Numbers) Server File Name to which I can connect These also change if the page or DW is closed and reopened.

E.G.
In the image1 I can see
_thumb (10): Server File Name
_thumb (11): Server File Name

In the image2
_thumb (11): Server File Name
_thumb (12): Server File Name


Can you say how I decide which Item should be used in the Insert Single Records SB for a given record

I hope I have explained this item well enough!

Thank you
