Hello All.
I am building a HTTP server and trying to decode the data from an HTML
form. The form action is POST and it has a File field.
The form is sent as a "multipart/form-data" instead of the more familiar
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" form.
the TIdHTTPRequestInfo -> Params does not contain the parameters as
usual as these are transfered as the different parts of the message ...
+----
Content-type: multipart/form-data, boundary=AaB03x
--AaB03x
content-disposition: form-data; name="field1"
Joe Blow
--AaB03x
content-disposition: form-data; name="pics"
Content-type: multipart/mixed, boundary=BbC04y
--BbC04y
Content-disposition: attachment; filename="file1.txt"
+---------+
My question is how do i decode the different parts from the
TidHTTPServer OnCommandGet handler ...
Do i need to use another component ?
There is a TIdMultiPartFormDataStream that is used to
send such POST request as a client ... but i need to do the reverse
that is to receive and decode ...
Any help anyone ?
Many thanks !
