Upload Files to a Web Server - Simplest TLS Example

See more Upload Examples

This is the simplest example for uploading some files to a web server using SSL/TLS. the BlockingUpload call is synchronous and returns when the upload is finished (or failed).

A server-side C# example showing how to receive an upload is located at C# ASP.NET Code to Receive Upload

Visual FoxPro

LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loUpload

lnSuccess = 0

loUpload = CreateObject('Chilkat.Upload')

*  Specify the page (ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, Python, Ruby, CGI, etc)
*  that will receive and process the HTTPS Upload.
loUpload.Hostname = "www.mywebserver.com"
loUpload.Path = "/receiveUpload.aspx"

*  Make sure to indicate that TLS is to be used, and the port should be
*  443 rather than 80.
loUpload.Ssl = 1
loUpload.Port = 443

*  Add one or more files to be uploaded.
loUpload.AddFileReference("file1","dude.gif")
loUpload.AddFileReference("file2","swordfish.xml")
loUpload.AddFileReference("file3","sample.doc")

*  Do the upload.  The method returns when the upload
*  is completed.
*  This component also includes asynchronous upload capability,
*  which is demonstrated in another example.

IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
