File Browse CGI

Uttara

Hello All,

I am writing a workflow, in which user input is a directory in some workarea. I want to capture this input, through a "Browse" button.

So, user will browse in some workarea, and select a directory, and would start the workflow.

Can anybody direct me on how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance,

_Uttara

The iw_file form variable within the WFT should contain the name of the pre-selected directory.
If you want to turn this from a pre-selected directory to a pre-selected list of all files within that directory (recommended since most task operations do not really function on directories) - then you can use something like File::Find or TeamSite:irwalk or roll-your-own processing list. If this is a Submit workflow - you probably only want the list of *modified* files within that directory - in which case using a CLT like iwlistmod with the current workarea and directory path of the selected directory will probably give you the quickest results.
