Remarks
Internet Explorer 4.0, or better, is required for the HTTP protocol parameter to work.
Typically, a specific userID and password are required to upload a file.
The standard HTTP port is 80.
The pRemoteFile parameter allows you to specify a path on the server from the Web root, and give the file a new name.
If a Web server is set up with a secure upload folder, one requiring user name and password, only authorized users will be allowed to upload files. This function supports Basic authentication, so the user name and password are sent in clear text to the server.
Release information
Added to Imagenation for Windows in Release 7.0.
Not supported in Imagenation for UNIX.
