eWebEditPro Fields Sent with Post
Image Upload Fields
Automatic Upload
• If this information is not sent to the client, the client editor “guesses” where
the file ended up from information contained in the configuration data.
The eWebEditPro client sends one of these sets of fields with a file post.
• Image Upload Fields
• Custom Field Set
These fields send information about an image file. They are also sent with the
ASP sample provided with eWebEditPro. This set of fields provides compatibility
with the ASP database sample and lets the server side receive a large amount of
data about the file.
Much of the sent data originates in eWebEditPro’s configuration data stream. The
server-side component can extract what it needs and ignore the other fields.
Entry Description
actiontyp The action type. (Note that the final ‘e’ is missing.)
This entry’s value is a command to the server. It is
normally uploadfile for the file upload process.
See Also: ”uploadfile” on page 468
editor_media_path The requested upload destination. For example,
http://www.mysite.com/uploads.
Normally, this value is equal to the web_media_path
value. It is given here for if it is different for some reason.
The server can ignore this and place the file where it
wants. If the server places the file elsewhere, the client
should receive the full XML response so that it knows
where the file was placed.
ekclientname The name of the client application. It is not necessarily
the application name, although you can use the
application name.
This is usually the eWepMediaTransfer value. Error
check this.
