How to I handle special cases when for example the server side detemines that the file is too big or invalid format or has already been uploaded. I would like to know how I can read data from the server’s HTTP Response ?

Or maybe there is a different mechanism that will allow me to let my user know that status ? I need to let them know what’s the reason for upload failure…

Thank you so much, works like a charm! I’m a bit puzzled that this solution isn’t mentioned in the article you refer to though, it really solves the metadata issue!

I was looking for this info all day yesterday! Thanks for posting this.

Any thoughts on how to post the file, along with the “metadata” fields, and also get a reply back from the server?

I’m posting to a PHP page, and I’d like to receive a response (like the XML I send from my other HTTPService-s) that contains relevant information (file created successfully, new entry was made to the database, here’s its ID)? I’m new to the FileReference, but can;t seem to figure it out.
