The only tools/plugins I've seen online that allow for multiple files to be selected for upload through one single dialog box using a SHIFT or CTRL click action (as opposed to clicking on a single file per for file uploads) exist for controls made in Flash/.NET/Java, not just straight Javascript/HTML/PHP. Why is that the case? I'd ima...

In Silverlight, there is the SaveFileDialog which allows you to save a file to the user's local machine. The dialog opens only allowing you to save the file. What I'm looking for is a way to open the file similar to the dialog you get when downloading a file through the browser. Aside from round-tripping the file to a server, or havin...
Suppose you open a file, and do an seek() somewhere in the file, how do you know the current file line ? (I personally solved with an ad-hoc file class that maps the seek position to the line after scanning the file, but I wanted to see other hints and to add this question to stackoverflow, as I was not able to find the problem anywhere...
There appears to be a somewhat standard "descript.ion" file in Windows programs universe which provides meta data for all/some of the files in a given directory. I know there are various programs which write this file (example: NewsBin, UseNet downloader) and read it (Example: "FAR", a file manager mimicking old Norton Commander). I'm...
Hi, I'm making an HTTP server and when I get the path of the file they request I open it with the following: returned_file = fopen(path, "r"); this (contrary to what I would think) succeeds even if the path is a directory. Is there an easy way to check if the returned_file stream is a directory instead of a file? ...

Imagine you have a library for working with some sort of XML file or configuration file. The library reads the whole file into memory and provides methods for editing the content. When you are done manipulating the content you can call a write to save the content back to file. The question is how to do this in a safe way. Overwriting th...

I have a script called foo.R that includes another script other.R, which is in the same directory: #!/usr/bin/env Rscript print("Hello") source("other.R") But I want R to find that other.R no matter what the current working directory. In other words, foo.R needs to know its own path. How can I do that? ...
Hi all, Windows Win32 C++ question about flushing file activity to disk. I have an external application (ran using CreateProcess) which does some file creation. i.e., when it returns it will have created a file with some content.

The JFileChooser window opens fine when I click my import button and I can navigate to any field but I just cant read them into my JTextFields. Heres my JFileChooser m...
I need to be able to identify that a given file is an ODF file based on the contents of the file, and not on the file's extension. ODF files are really a collection of XML files in a zip container, which means that I cannot use the file's magic number as it will just indicate that it is a zip file. So what I'm really asking is are ther...

Hi everyone I am building a web service which needs to query 1 to n file servers, and receive multiple files as a result. Does anyone have a good idea on doing this? Would Threads do any good job?

Hi, I have a very basic upload script, probably lifted straight off the php.net/move_upload_files function page. move_uploaded_file() is failed because it cannot find the tmp file in the tmp folder. But I KNOW that it is being put there, but is removed before move_upload_file() can deal with it in my script. I know it is being put ther...
