Java would definitely work also ... now if you had PHP and Java talking with a MySQL backend, _then_ maybe this would be applicable to this list. :) Good luck, Matt. -----Original Message----- From: Morgan Doocy [mailto:mdoocy@mac.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 29, 2003 6:34 PM To: php-db@lists.php.net Cc: thomas.knorr@gemini-sys.de Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] drag & drop with php ??

Does anybody know a solution to upload files using drag&drop within a php based website?

As far as I know, it's not actually possible to handle drag & drop of external objects within the web browser at all. Drag & drop actions are functions of the operating system and web browser, and since both are client-side, they have nothing to do with PHP - and even less with database functions - so it's pretty far outside the scope of this list. But if there is a way to handle it, it will be done using JavaScript's event handling functions.
