You could also save all your screen shots in a folder and have a script to regularly scan for new files, when a new file is detected, it gets uploaded and then moved/deleted/renamed/etc.
like a local batch or Perl file or something that runs all the time in the background]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22708272 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 19:01:27 EDT Re: file upload http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22706759 PToN : You could also save all your screen shots in a folder and have a script to regularly scan for new files, when a new file is detected, it gets uploaded and then moved/deleted/renamed/etc.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22706759 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 14:23:05 EDT Re: file upload http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22706597 PingPong : Using Flash/Java/ActiveX you can do pretty much anything. Google something like "flash upload" and you'll get tons of ideas.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22706597 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 13:56:14 EDT Re: file upload http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22660307 Tenar : Yes, I believe you can not auto fill in a file input type for security reasons. The user has to select the file, otherwise you could auto upload sensitive information about their computer.

You may want to look at Snag-it You can upload your screen shots via FTP.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22660307 Mon, 06 Jul 2009 10:23:30 EDT file upload http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22649344 inGearX : ultimately what I am looking for is when I take a screenshot of an area, for the file to be auto uploaded to an image hosting site or my domain; any software out there that can do that?

else I need my own solution:

when you upload a file, say to upload.php like one found here: »www.webcheatsheet.com/php/file_upload.php

one needs to open up a dialog and select a file from C drive...

is there any way to include the PATH of file on C drive right into the GET of the URL?

details:

When I take a screen shot with Gadwin PrintScreen it is displayed in firefox as

file:///C:/_S/ScreenShot_041.jpg

or so

I wish I could upload it easily - I could just make a reference to a custom "search engine" which is actually an upload script and thus just by prefixing the URL in the address bar with something like "upload"

resulting in

"upload file:///C:/_S/ScreenShot_041.jpg"

what would be activated is something like

myDomain.com/upload.php&uploaded_fil=file:///C:/_S/ScreenShot_041.jpg

and file would be uploaded right away...

hmm I can't even pre populate type=file with a value=* must be a security thing?


security thing? correct?

so it can't really be done?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22649344 Fri, 03 Jul 2009 11:38:35 EDT
