Delete file AFTER Sending (New Topic)

[bergsj]

Just wanted to reply on this oldie:

Re: Delete file AFTER Sending ( download)

I did what Bruce was saying: Prepend the filename with $$$.

The files won't go away.

My code:

Code: [Select]


loc:filenameonly = '$$$' & FORMAT(TODAY(), @D12) & FORMAT(CLOCK(), @T05) & RANDOM(1000,9999) & '-' & Doc:DocumentFileName & '.' & Doc:DocumentFileExt

loc:filename = clip(p_web.site.UploadsPath) & '\' & loc:filenameonly

p_web.HeaderDetails.ContentDisposition = 'attachment; filename="' & loc:filenameonly & '"'


Any ideas?

Cheers!

What sendfile is looking for is '\$$$' in the filename. So be sure to send it the complete path to the file.

Chris,

I send the full filename to the client, including the $$$.

Can it be the fact that I use the uploadspath to temporarily place the files to be send?

Hi Sjoerd,

As I recall, Bruce told us to serve the $$$ files from the web folder.

He Rene!

That did the trick.

Thanks for your reminder!
