Am I missing something here or is the thumbnail creation part of Smart Image missing ?

In version 1 you simply decided the size, suffix, save compression, etc for your thumbnail, in version 2 this seems to have gone and I don't understand how I now create my thumbnails....

Thanks

OK I figured out how to get Thumbnails using Smart Processor 2 ( you create a second instance and simply resize the upload to the thumbnail size yoiu require).

What I can't figured out is how to get the extension to work.

Is there a way to de-bug the page s I can see whats not happening. I have asked my ISP to set the folder security as per the help file (whether they have followed it correctly may be a different matter) and I have uploaded all the file in the scriptlibrary and the bin folder.

Pure upload 3 works treat but the Smart Image 2 dosen't seem to doing anything...

Please read the manual at www.dmxzone.com/ShowDetail.asp?NewsId=12610 there is a link in there to a debug page.

Reading another post in the bug section I find that SIP2 has a big bug in it.

It would seems its putting the SIP code in the wrong place, this is why its doing nothing.

I have checked the page using the ?sipinfo=true and all seems to check out OK

When I run the ?sipdebug=true I get two errors:

Error creating object Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0 006~ASP 0177~Server.CreateObject Failed~Invalid ProgID. For additional information specific to this message please visit the Microsoft Online Support site located at: www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp.

Buy moving the SIP2 code up underneath the Pure Upload code it works...

So it looks like for now we will have to hand code SIP2 until an update is done.

I have a modify page which deletes image before upload, anyone know the correct sequence the code should run in ?

OK, found that if you move the SIP2 code up underneath the Pure ASP File Upload 3.0.4 code it works fine, also the Delete Old Files Before Update Record 1.6.0 works fine as long you remember to change the "/upload" to "" and that the this code sits below the:

*** Update Record: (Modified for File Upload) set variables code

and above the:

*** Update Record: (Modified for File Upload) construct a sql update statement and execute it

code.

Hope this all makes sense

Have found another slight problem in SIP2, can't remember whether or not its mentioned in the help files but you can't seem to use any extended characters in the text section under the advance tab.

I would guess a lot of people like me may want to put a copyright statement in here and so will want to use © (alt0169).

Any suggestions on how this might be achieved.
