Step 2 - Extract the Content
Content Upload
The information about the uploaded content is contained within the "content_title",
"content_size", "content_type", and "content_description" fields. The actual
content is contained in the "content_text" field.
The content received can be in HTML, XML, or RTF format. The format received
is determined by the client side scripting and configuration.
Below is an ASP line that extracts the content.
strContent = objUpload.EkFormFieldValue(binaryFormData,"content_text", ErrorCode)
Step 3 - Save the Content
Step 4 - Return a Response
The Receiving Page
The receiving script saves the content in the mechanism that it requires. Below is
ASP code that saves the content to the database.
AddNewContentToDatabase SQLFilter(strTitle), SQLFilter(strContent)
Because eWebEditPro displays the response in the editor, the client should
generate a response that the user understands.
Below is an ASP example showing how to generate a response that confirms the
content upload.
strResp = ""
If "New" = strDesc Then
strResp = strResp & "New Content Received"
AddNewContentToDatabase strTitle, strHtml
Else
strResp = strResp & "Updated Content Received"
UpdateContentInDatabase strTitle, strHtml, strID
End If
strResp = strResp & "Content Title:  " & strTitle & ""
strResp = strResp & "body>"
Response.Write(strResp)
Like Automatic Upload, Content Upload uses a receiving page on the server. The
form with the data is posted to the receiving page.
The receiving script determines how and where content should be saved. The
content is usually stored as a string in a database.
If you use the receiving page specified for Automatic Upload, the content upload
can occur on the client side with just the command. The server side administrator
or CMS builder must create the receiving page.
That page is specified in the configuration data or in the Automatic Upload Object
Interface. The code below illustrates where the Automatic Upload page is
specified in the configuration data.
