chnaging url_post to a redirect htm page

#1 Postby packerm » Dec 15, 2006 12:18 pm

Hi

Read another post on this forum that said I could chnage the url_post parm in xuploadconfig.pm to a web page rather than the post-cgi. Just wanted to direct it to a thank you page basically.

If you just change it to

url_post => 'http://www.tshirt-mad.co.uk/thanks.htm',

you get a 405 error saying you can't use a post method to open the web page.

Any ideas if I need to change anything in the CGIs to get this to work, or is there a better way of re-directing back to a web page once the upload is finished.

Thanks

Mick

Yes. This error was born in Pro 2.3 version after config simplification and already solved, won't be in 2.4 version.

Here goes quick fix: in upload.cgi insert above line "if($ENV{QUERY_STRING}!~/js_on=1/)":

Code: Select all

   if($url_post=~/\.htm(l|)$/i)
   {
      print"Content-type: text/html\n\n";
      print"<HTML><HEAD><Script>parent.document.location='$url_post'</Script></HEAD></HTML>";
      exit;
   }
