How to set the image URL after the upload?

[t4nu]

Hi,
I tried to set the image URL file from the within the script but until now still fail.
I set the upload To Directory to ./ebasetest/uploadedFiles

and from within the script I do like this:

Code: Select all

	form.uploadFileFromBrowser();
	controls.imgApplicantPhoto.imageURL = system.variables.$FILE_NAME.value;

but the image still show nothing.

How can I solve this problem?

edit:
I have tried this too, with the same result (image not shown):

Code: Select all

	controls.imgApplicantPhoto.setImageURL(system.variables.$FILE_NAME.value);
	controls.imgApplicantPhoto.refresh();

The URL for an image and its file path are not quite the same thing. For example:

If I upload an image, its file path returned in system.variables.$FILE_NAME.value will be something like:

• C:/mydir/UfsServer/tomcat/webapps/ebase/uploadedfiles/image.gif

..but the url to display this image is relative to the root of the web app and will be:

• uploadedfiles/image.gif

So you need to manipulate the path to translate it into a URL

OK. IC.
Is there a way for me to get the root folder of the web app or upload to directory that set in the server admin app?
