Cgi File Upload without Form
Hello, what is the simplest way to upload a file (or a long string) to a server using cgi/python? Since I want to upload the data programmatically, a form based solution is not good. I am not experienced with SOAP/WSDL and I believe that would be more difficult than necessary. The client program I have to use does not support FTP. Any hint appreciated, kind regards, Karsten. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Thanks for your replies, however I think urlllib can not help me here. I have control over the server side (I can write a cgi-script in python), but I have very little control on the client side (I have to use VBA). Kind regards, Karsten. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

But maybe I am wrong here and I can teach my VBA program to fill in forms automatically. If I were using python as client, I could fill in forms with urllib. However, I using python only server-side.

Re: Cgi File Upload without Form
OK, I think I have a simple solution now. I am going to use FTP in my VBA-Client (it's possible) and don't need to do any server-side programming. Kind regards, Karsten. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
