It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 56350
interpreted = N
texte = You're referring to uploading an image file through an html form? In this case, the image data is the same as any other form field. The entire upload is completed as part of the http request before WebDNA even becomes involved. So yes, you can spawn after the upload, but that won't make much difference to the user, unless you are doing a lot of processing besides just writing the uploaded data to a file. The user spends nearly all his/her time waiting for the request to be sent to the server, not waiting for the server to process the request. - brian On Feb 24, 2004, at 9:11 PM, Tim Robinson wrote: > Can you use spawn after uploading an image?
