I'm trying to use VDSIPP and the INTERNET HTTP,POST,<http client>,<url>,<string/filename> command. This is the full HTML code for the page in question:
| Code: | <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>File Manager</TITLE>
<link REL="stylesheet" TYPE="text/css" HREF="/icetv.css">
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkAll(){
for (var i=0;i<document.fileList.elements.length;i++)
{
var e=document.fileList.elements[i];
if ((e.name != 'allbox') && (e.type == 'checkbox'))
{
e.checked=document.fileList.allbox.checked;
}
}
}
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<a href='/'><img src='/images/ICE_logo.gif' alt='ICE logo' border='0' /><br />Back to Main Menu</a> <br /> <hr noshade='noshade' size='1' /> <br />
<H1>File Manager</H1>
<p class="msg"></p>
<h3><b>NOTE:</b> File transfers are limited to a maximum file size of 2,097,152 bytes.</h3>

In particular, it's the first FORM 'statement' (about line 30) that I'm interested in. I have tried: | Code: | | internet http,post,1,http://192.168.0.2/cgi-bin/filemanager.cgi,?op=addfile&path=\DestinationFolder&fileNameC:\Program%20Files\Data\myfile.txt |
but it hasn't worked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

I also had the same problem and one solution was to use curl.exe. The cgi page I was posting to was named filemanager.cgi and curl required an @ at the start of the filename. BTW it was the exact same cgi page as in trapper's post above.
| Code: | runh curl.exe -F op=addFile -F path=@chr(34)%%Path@chr(34) -F fileName="@"@chr(34)%%File@chr(34) http://%%IP/cgi-bin/filemanager.cgi,wait
%%Code = @retcode()
|
But getting back to vdsipp, the following works for me (to the same cgi page as above). The url needs to be the full cgi url/command-string/file. %%Path, %%Name and %%Ext are the destination path, filename and extension. %%File is the source file.
| Code: | # INTERNET HTTP,POST,<http client>,<url>,<string/filename>
INTERNET HTTP,POST,1,http://%%IP/cgi-bin/filemanager.cgi?op=addFile&path=\%%Path&file=%%Name.%%Ext,%%File
|
If you only need to post a string and not an actual file just leave off the %%File at the end.

To make it a little clearer, the difference between trapper's non-working example and what works is the position of the last comma.
Does not work:
internet http,post,1,http://192.168.0.2/cgi-bin/filemanager.cgi,?op=addfile&path=\DestinationFolder&fileNameC:\Program%20Files\Data\myfile.txt
Works:
internet http,post,1,http://192.168.0.2/cgi-bin/filemanager.cgi?op=addfile&path=\DestinationFolder&fileNameC:\Program%20Files\Data\myfile.txt,%%LocalFileToBePosted
So the <url> in the help file example:
INTERNET HTTP,POST,<http client>,<url>,<string/filename> command
needs to be the full cgi url including commands and destination paths, files etc. The <string/filename> needs to be the local file or string that you are posting to the cgi page. I'm not sure about 'command' as I've never needed to use it.
