Hi,
 I use the DNN popup to display a module I've written in which I need to upload an image file.
The file should only be visible to the current user.

I can't use the standard ASP upload control as that has a limitation in that appatantly, it can't be used in popups - so I decided to use a much reduced version of the html editor (just the image upload bit) and that does the upload (clunky interface soltion, but whatever works...)

Problem is, I move the image to another place file folder outside the filemanager and I want to synchronize the filemanger to 'clear' the original folder.

I'm aware of the changes in the filesystem after DNN 6.0.0 and I've looked at the various references (and the code in /desktopmodules/admin/filemanager ) but I can't get my head round how I instance the portal filemanager

(VB)
?? dim q = DotNetNuke.Services.FileSystem.FolderManager
?? q.Synchronize

clearly isn't right.....

Anyone help here?

i) Better, less clunky way to upload an image file to a user invisible space (i.e. me.TemplateSourceDirectory/ClientImages.... )
ii) Failing that, How to synchronize the portal filemanager from module code?

 Any help appreciated!

regards,
Duncan

Hi Sebastion,

Sorry it's taken a while responding - I've been off in the long grass trying - with no success - to use the Infragistics upload control.

I've had to abandon that  (very frustrating as the control presentation is good).
I've also updated my development  framework to version 7.0.0 which also generates a few interesting challenges!

I had moved to the Infragistics control as I'd had an issue with the url control.

I'd set up this control point at a subdirectory of the filemanager - and it all worked fine.
My problem is that I then move this client-specific file to another place and wanted to programmatically re-synch the filemanger so that the next client  sees a clear folder...

How do I do that?

regards,
Duncan.
