hello,

this is the situation…  
I can select an image from in flash. When I click on upload in flash, I call a javascript function test();. This also works because I’ve tested it with an alert().

In the function test() I’ve placed a click event on the submit button, so he would submit my image to a php file, but its always permission denied… arghhh

document.forms.form1.elements[0].click();  
//opens the browse dialog–\>works

function test()  
{  
alert(“uploaden”);  
document.forms.form1.elements[1].click();  
[//document.form1.submit](https://document.form1.submit)();  
}

I tried 2 ways

- document.forms.form1.elements[1].click();  
//posts the image to php --\> doesn’t work --\> permission denied!!!

- document.form1.submit();  
//output: object has no such methods or properties

// FORM  
//

```auto
   form name="form1" ACTION="portfolio/upload.php" 
   METHOD="POST" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> 
   input type="file" name="file" onChange="doFlashCommand(this.value)"> 
   input type="submit" name="submit" value="testen"> 
   /form> 

```

//deleted those \< otherwise it showed up as a real form

I don’t work with frames, everything is on one page…  
I don’t know it anymore, getting frustrated…  
Tested the the click event in another example and there it works… :s  
(same code)

grtz
