In coldfusion I have a basic cffile upload which works fine when the nameconflict parameter is explicit, such as 'overwrite'. But when I try to pass a parameter, it doesn't work.
<cfoutput>
<cfset confl = 'overWrite'>
<form
enctype = "multipart/form-data"
method = "post"
name = "uploadForm"
action = "">
<input name = "theupload"
type = "file"
style = "font-family: comic sans ms; color: ##679C9C">
<input type = 'hidden' name = 'confl' value = '#confl#'>
<cfinclude template = 'submitbut.cfm'>
</form>
</cfoutput>
<cfif IsDefined("form.theupload")>
<cfoutput>
<cffile action = "upload"
destination = "#session.exploc#"
fileField = "form.theupload"
mode = '666'
result = 'ss'
nameConflict = "#form.confl#" >
</cfoutput>
</cfif>
Is this just the nature of cffile upload? Is there a way to pass a parameter to the action page? The above code is used in several places, and I don't always want the name conflict to be 'overwrite'. I hate to have to use two programs when the only difference is in the name conflict.
