Can I use pure asp with "get" method?

As the topic goes? Can I? Can I receive a file using the querystring method and save it using pure asp? If so.. how and what changes would I have to make?

nope. ASP sucks for file uploads even through post!

Use php for fileuploads only

Why use querystring?

Querystring allows only 8k - 16k on size (depending on client browser).

or another option is if the server is .Net enabled use asp.net to handle the upload.

i think you need to use post but its better than get anyway so i dont see the problem there.. and i dont see how that makes asp bad at uploads anyway

i have written some pretty good upload pages in asp3, the only problem i have is that i cant check things before uploading them eg if the file already exists or the file size is too big but i expect there are COM components you can use to do that

nancy why dont u just go back to ur little php lined hole and give people some valuable input instead of just slagging off asp
