Use HTTP POST to send file to IIS 7.5 virtual dire

Question

Is it possible to allow HTTP clients to USE HTTP POST (with Content-Type: multipart/form-data) to upload image files to an IIS 7.5 virtual directory without writing server-side code?

Answer 1

Without server-side code, that is not possible. If HTTP POST is a requirement, you need to write code. Otherwise, configure an FTP site on your IIS installation.

If you really need HTTP, consider WebDav:

Answer 2

If you enable public write access in IIS with WebDAV, you can upload files using HTTP PUT requests.

Answer 3

There are lots of different WAYS you can handle this on the server side ... but all of them involve writing some kind of "code".

SUGGESTION: Maybe a little asp.net script might be the ticket?
