Is it possible to send a file from the client computer on a perl web application without uploading it to the server first? -
i've looked around internet without getting answer far, here's issue:
i have perl web application used small group of people (accessed web browser on windows computers, around 100 users) , on intranet (this application on redhat apache server) , application gets user's inputs , uses www::mechanize
send page on (a different server, shouldn't used directly), process form , return result (i know may not sound optimal, done according required), issue here need users able send file (most image of ~500kb, either through www::mechanize
along other form data gets submitted, or email attachment, either option equally acceptable), , know file can sent/attached if it's on server, question simple:
is possible send file client computer (running perl web application on browser) without uploading server (that send it) first?
p.s. not 1 of "give me code" questions, i'm not asking specific code, want know if done (and if have idea how), or if absolutely have upload file server running perl application first (i have script that). if not possible it's ok, want sure if need upload server first before sending file.
assuming understand correctly, yes, can upload file through www::mechanize. see pb-upload
example.
