Can someone give me a quick rundown on cgi for multipart/form-data or at least a toot that doesn't leave you hanging on the serverside?

Are you trying to upload a file? The only time I need to use multipart/form-data is when I am uploading a file. I use Persits AspUpload. Their documentation describes pretty easily what you need to do server side.

http://www.aspupload.com/

uploading image in admin pages, would like to avoid third party if possible, just need to retrieve header.

I've been using John Lewis's (aspZone.com) Upload class for 6 or 7 years now.

it can still be found at;
http://puna.net.nz/archives/Technica...20VBScript.htm

the zipfile is no longer there but if you want the code let me know.

and there is this one -> http://www.asp101.com/articles/jacob/scriptupload.asp that works very well and is simple to implement.

And there is one here that got a few mods,

http://www.webmaster-talk.com/asp-fo...extension.html

as you can probably tell I played with that script quite a bit

Guess I will go third party, is it that complicated? Also I have some Strings in the same form that I need to retrieve, So I kinda need to know what exactly is going on.
