Hi,

Im a trying to find a script/tutorial on how to create an upload facility on my site. It will be used within a content management area by our client. He is basically going to upload PDF etc which can then be linked to to download.

What i need is to be able to upload a document (.pdf, .doc., .txt etc) to a directory in my server, and also add some info into a SQL Server table such as date added, document title and description.

Can anyone help with this? I have tralled the web for days trying to find something kind of like what i need, but have had no luck. Either the scripts i have found are stricty for ASP.NET or they cost a lot of money.

All help, or links to good sites would be appreciated.

Very cool article, and it works. If you don't have Visual Studio, maybe you know someone who does?

I implemented this using ASP and cookies for authentication to make sure only authorized visitors could execute the dll, and it works like a charm!

There are third party components available such as ASPUpload or DIMAC W3Upload. Both of which are low cost, and very easy to implement.
