cffile - upload default file

[splitzer]

Hello,
I've a upload form, that uplaod an image than insert into db along with text fields. The problem is, when i dont upload a file it gives me an error that i MUST upload a file.

How can i make it not show this message and insert the default file name like noimage.gif to the db?

Here is the code:

<cffile action="upload" filefield="Image1" destination="E:\Domains\domain.info\wwwroot\admin\upload\" nameconflict="MakeUnique" accept="image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, image/gif, image/png, image/x-png" >
<p align="center">Click the confirm button to insert into the database</p>

...............................................................................................................................................

<cfelseif isdefined("form.image1") and Len(Trim(form.image1)) EQ 0>
<p>You must enter the image to enter image </p>
</cfif>



This code suppose to uplaod image, than tell whether it was successful or say You must enter the image to enter image

Thanks in advance!

Try this out:


<cfif isdefined("form.image1")>

<cfif #form.image1# is "">
<cfset imgFilename1="noimage.gif">
<cfelse>
<CFFILE destination="E:\Domains\domain.info\wwwroot\admin\upload\"
action="UPLOAD"
nameconflict="makeunique"
filefield="exttb"
accept="image/*"
mode="644">
<cfset imgFilename1="#file.ClientFile#">
</cfif>

</cfif>


<!---insert into the database--->

<cfquery datasource="yourdbname">
INSERT INTO yourtablename
SET
Image1 = '#imgFilename1#',
text1 = '#form.text1#'
</cfquery>

It gave me this error:
Element SERVERFILE is undefined in CFFILE.

The element is being used on these lines:
<td><cfoutput><img src="upload/#cffile.serverfile#"></cfoutput></td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top">
<td></td>
<td><cfoutput>#cffile.ServerFile#</cfoutput>

Try this:
<cfif isdefined("PhotoTitle") and isdefined("Photo")>
<cfset curDirectory = "c:\Photos\">
<cfif isdefined("Add") and Add is "yes">
<cfset maximumFileSize = "50000">
<CFIF Val(CGI.CONTENT_LENGTH) GT maximumFileSize>
The file you are trying to upload exceeds the maximum allowable size of <CFOUTPUT><B>#maximumFileSize#</B></CFOUTPUT> (50K) bytes and cannot be uploaded to this server! Please choose a smaller image and try again. Click here to <A HREF="javascript nclick=window.history.go(-1);">return.</A>
<CFABORT>
</CFIF>

<cfif ISDEFINED("Photo") and Photo NEQ ''>
<CFFILE
ACTION="upload"
FILEFIELD="Photo"
DESTINATION="#curDirectory#"
NAMECONFLICT="MAKEUNIQUE"
ACCEPT="image/*"
>
<cfset Photo = #file.serverfile#>
</cfif>
<cfquery datasource="#application.datasource#" name="whatever">
insert into Photos(Phototitle,Photo)
Values ('#Phototitle#'',<cfif ISDEFINED("Photo") and Photo NEQ ''>'#Photo#'<cfelse>noimage.gif</cfif>
</cfquery>
</cfif>

If the image field is required you can use javascripts to make sure they do enter an image.

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
<!-- Hide the code from old stupid Browsers
window.onerror=null; //Error handler
function checkit(photos) {
var primary = ""

if (!document.photos.PhotoTitle.value)
{ primary = primary + " Photo Title is needed\n" }

if (!document.photos.Photo.value)
{ primary = primary + " Photo is needed\n" }

//After the commend goes through the checking...
if (primary == "") {
document.photos.submit();
}

//If the condition is not met, this happens..
else
{
alert ("Please Fillout:\n" + primary + "!!")
return false;
}
}
// -->
</script>

<form id="photos" method="post" action="whereever.cfm" NAME="photos" OnSubmit="return checkit(); return false;" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
<table width="392" height="77" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#000000">
<tr>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#FDC91D">Title:</td>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#202020"><input name="PhotoTitle" type="text" value="" size="35" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#FDC91D">Photo:</td>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#202020"><input name="Photo" type="file" id="Photo" value="" size="35" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" bgcolor="#202020"><div align="right">
<input name="Submit3" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</div></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>


Try it; I hope it works for you.

In regards to the error:

Element SERVERFILE is undefined in CFFILE.

Try using #file.serverfile# instead of #cffile.serverfile# in the output.

Acutally,
I just thought of something...you may be getting that error if not file is uploaded. Try this output code:


<td>
<cfif imgFilename1 NEQ "">
<cfoutput><img src="upload/#file.serverfile#"></cfoutput>
</cfif>
</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top">
<td></td>
<td>
<cfif imgFilename1 NEQ "">
<cfoutput>#file.ServerFile#</cfoutput>
</cfif>

I tried inserting your code like this:
<cfelseif isdefined("form.image1") and Len(Trim(form.image1)) EQ 0>
<p>You must enter the image to enter property. </p>

<cfif image1 NEQ "">
<cfoutput><img src="upload/#file.serverfile#"></cfoutput>
</cfif>
</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top">
<td></td>
<td>
<cfif image1 NEQ "">
<cfoutput>#file.ServerFile#</cfoutput>
</cfif>

</cfif>



And it gave me this error:
Element SERVERFILE is undefined in CFFILE.

Do you have the enctype in the form on the first page like this?

<form method="post" action="" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">

If it is not multipart/form-data it will not recognize the image1 formfield.
