Note: Internet upload and download is not supported in Imagenation for UNIX.
You can use the Imagenation API to upload and download Internet files.
To download a file from the Internet using FTP:
· Use the IN_FtpFileDownload function.
To download a file from the Internet using HTTP:
· Use the IN_HttpFileDownload function.
These functions generally only require that you have Web access. If the file that you have downloaded is supported in Imagenation, then you can view it there. However, no check is done on the file format to make sure that it is supported.
Downloaded files are stored in a local folder called Spicer under the system temporary folder. You should move any files that you want to keep to a different location.
To clear all files from the temporary directory:
· Use the IN_FlushDownloadDirectory function.
If you have access, you can place a file onto an Internet Web site through FTP or HTTP.
To upload a file to a Web site:
· Use the IN_FileUpload function.
This generally requires that you have a valid user ID and password.
