Upload within Xform

Sometimes one would like to enable users to upload files in a Xform. Based on my blog post about extending xforms, I have added an upload function.

I check if an textbox have a css class called FileUpload. If it has it will replace that textbox with an upload function.

clip_image002

So it will look something like this

clip_image002[5]

It handles also more than one file

clip_image002[7]

The stuff that will be saved is like this

clip_image002[9]

The code will upload files to a seperate VPP folder

      <add showInFileManager="true" virtualName="XformFiles"
        virtualPath="~/XformFiles/" bypassAccessCheck="true" 
           physicalPath="C:\EPiServer\VPP\XformFiles"
        name="XformFiles" type="EPiServer.Web.Hosting.VirtualPathNativeProvider,EPiServer" />
I havent testet the code with CMS7 thou.
The code is uploaded here
