upload file to webpage

[keroed1]

i trying to expand my knowledge i trying to simulate what some websites do that allow member to upload files.

thus i developed a website that i am testing locally on my machine and i wanted to be able to go to a page and click browse find a file and upload that file into my webserver.

i planning to have a test folder located at http://localhost/try/uploadfiles that i am going to upload all the files to. i hope i not sounding confused

thus the scenario is i can choose to browse and upload the following file from my machine (c:\video.swf) and then its going to be uploaded to http://10.0.0.1/try/uploadfiles

So what exactly is the problem here. When you upload the file you have to do a UploadFile.PostedFile.SaveAs("FileName") where FileName is the relative path to the folder on the server (ex: C:\Temp\)

Simply use dreamweaver. I want to test a site still but I want to use a free web host;
What is a good free webhost ? (php)

Also when I goto :http://localhost or http://localhost/localstart.asp
-I am not getting the directory structure --page cannot be displayed ---?HELP me out here I did it with ASP, but I dont remember
- but the site load with http: //localhost/MyWeb/Websitefolder/homepage.php

I am using dreamweaver, IIS and PHP 5

The only thing i could think of as to why you're getting a page cannot be displayed is that your IIS server service is currently off. Go to your IIS Configuration and do a start or restart and see if that helps.

ASP, ASP.NEt 1.1 and ASP.Net 2.0 are really simply. But many people make it sound so difficult. Don't get me wrong; i like PHP but sometimes it gets annoying doing that scripting in one page and everything gets confused while with ASP you have the option in using a external file to manage your code and you get alot of help from the IDE when debuging

Ok. Then go to the IIS Manager and view the properties of the Website. In the dialog box go to the "Home Directory" tab and make sure "Directory Browsing" is checked. Click "apply" and let me know if that works.
