session variable between two windows

[Soha]

i'm using the dundas freelib upload code to upload files in my website.
when the user choses to upload a file a new window is opened and the
upload procedure goes fine and the file is uploaded successfully. but
the problem is the i want to know the name of the file in the parent
window to save it in the database. i tried to use a session variable
which contains the name of the file but it dosen't work.
the parent window contains a form which is used to insert new data in
the database so i can't use the upload window to insert the filename in
the database.

Use a streaming file for uploading and register the facts in your database
before the stream start.

Sorry, this is nonsense, I was thinking of downloading.

Uploading registration depends upon the uploader module.

here is some code from one of my projects...
I think "UserFilename" is what you want

I cant remember what is going on with the "ServerAssignedName"

You will have to play around with it..


set Upload = server.CreateObject("Dundas.Upload.2")
Upload.UseUniqueNames = True
Upload.MaxFileSize = 1048576
Upload.Save(UploadDirectory)

ServerAssignedName = Mid(Upload.Files(0).Path,
InstrRev(Upload.Files(0).Path,"\") + 1)
UserFilename = Mid(Upload.Files(0).OriginalPath,
InstrRev(Upload.Files(0).OriginalPath,"\") + 1)

and look out because that code got line breaks added to it when I posted it

i'm sorry but i didn't understand what is "ServerAssignedName". form
the code i see that ur building a name of the file file but how can i
use this name in the parent window. dose the parent window see this
ServerAssignedName"? is it available for the other pages displayed in
the parent window?
