I need to upload files in a folder recursively.
Is it possible to use Uploadify to upload contents of a folder recursively by selecting the folder instead of selecting individual files in a folder?
I would not think so. The browser is in control of the file selection dialog (which will not allow you to select folders, only files).
I have not tried the file drag-drop feature of the paid Uploadifive (HTML 5 version), but it might support dragging a folder. Not sure what HTML 5 allows with with drag-drop

I have a very particular case and I don't know if this is possible to be done.
I'm using NWJS to run a web app as a desktop app. I need to zip/package the source files because my code should not be available to eavesdroppers. This package will be delivered on a flash drive. And this is were my trouble begins.
There are a lot of .pdf file that must be shipped together with the package. The user can browse which pdf he wants to open, and when he clicks it, the pdf is "downloaded" to his pc. The content of the pdf is NOT available on the application. I have a list with the name of each pdf file.
If I zip/package the .pdf together with the source files it becomes a huge .nw file and it takes forever for my application to load. I need to mantain the pdf on a separate folder and they need to be accessible through the source code. This is easy if i run the application directly without packaging it, as nw uses the relative url to it's root, but when I do package nw uses a temp folder for the source files and I can't use relative url to access the pdf folder.
The only approach i can think of is to write a js script to identify where the flash drive was mounted but i don't know if this is possible.
I have to support Windows and Mac for this case.
Searching on NWJS google group i found that the answer was quite simple. These two lines returns the path where the nw bin is running. From there is quite simple to get the pdf folder.
var path = require("path");
pathstr = path.dirname(process.execPath);
I am trying to use WinSCP to access a remote HTML file, and I do have root permission. However, if I open that HTML, it seems that all the sources and scripts are dysfunctional, e.g no images, buttons etc are loaded, and no js functions work. So how can I open a HTML using WinSCP so that all the sources are loaded and work properly? Thanks a lot.
I assume you "Open" the HTML file from a remote panel of WinSCP.
This makes WinSCP download the file to a temporary local folder and open the file from there.
As all the references to images and java script files are typically relative paths, they won't work from the temporary folder as the referenced files are not there. So it cannot work.
Either you need to download all files (including images and .js) to a local folder and open the HTML there.
Or you actually want to open the file from the server, via HTTP.
For that use the WinSCP extension "Generate HTTP URL".
just starting at play, and I needed to see it it can be used to do my project.
But after reading some docs, I still can't find a way to put uploaded files in more then one place.
I know that there is the attachments folder, and that I can change it directory in the confs, but what I want is another attachments folder, some thing like:
If the user upload a photo it would go to /photos folder;
if the user upload a txt it would go to /docs fodler;
Thanks
--UPDATE--
I'm using Play 2.0.1
So after some more research I found this other question:
How can I change uploaded files directory in play 2.0.1?
Basically there is no more attachments path configure in this playframework version, so I need to put this manually in the control, just like the answer in that question.
I’m making a simple web browser for work eeh, what I’d like to know is if its possible to save a file of a particular extension to a particular file.
I currently use google chrome when downloading a file it places this (regardless of extension) in a downloads folder without asking where I ant to download this too.
I want to achieve the same except that downloads with the extension .dwg are placed automatically in a folder named DWG DOWNLOADS…
How to achieve this in vb.net?
In any browser you have a config section.
In Firefox you have browser.download.useDownloadDir;true and browser.download.folderList;1
you can add your own config to allow different saved folder paths and dynamically modify them depending on the extension of the file you uploaded.
See a complete list of the web browser config with about:config in address bar.
Not real sure what you are asking, but if you are actually making a web browser just check the extension of the file you are requesting to download. If the extension is ".dwg" then save the file to the folder you want.
If you are wanting to automatically move Google Chrome downloads to a different directory, you can use a FileSystemWatcher to monitor for new files in Chrome's download directory and move them to another folder based on each file's extension.
i am using itextsharp and creating a PDF with images.
currently the images i am using in the application are on my desktop, but i will need to make an installation file that will put the images in a specified directory on the users computer and be able to call them from the specific directory.
how do i include pictures with my build?
how do i reference the pictures? currently i am using:
Dim jpeg3 As Image = Image.GetInstance(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop) & "\2.jpg")
How and where do you add the pictures?
If you simply added them to the project as if they were code files (using "add existing item"), then check the Properties for the file in the solution explorer (Build Action, and Copy To Output Directory are useful), and also the Application Files button/window (under the project settings -> Publish). This is useful for distributing the files along with the application (for both debug and release), deployed in a specific sub-directory.
If you added the files to the project's resource file, you can use them using the My.Resources namespace.
