Hi Guys,Not a problem with my code, but something I would like to add, (ASP VBScript) at the moment I have a form where a user uploads their details including a document (Doc, PDF, TXT, Docx) The document is uploaded to a folder on the server with the address being stored in the database and I'm tracking the user id through sessions.
What I would like to do after the upload is redirect to a blank page, where some script extracts the data from the document and inserts it into another field on the database associated with the user id, I think this may be called parsing, but I'm at a complete loss, I don't suppose you guys have any ideas on this do you.
I think this would probably make a really neat little extension also...
Look forward to your responses.
