Flickr API, upload file with POST Method

[alvaro533]

Good evening,

I want to make a small app to upload pictures to Flickr. There are some around, but I want to give special TAGs to each picture and to organize pictures in different "Collections" in 5 different levels.

I need to make a POST for a "file" to the Flickr URL. Any one can tell me how to do that from FiveWin? I have use the function HB_InetConnect before but I don't know how to add the local file to the POST.

More information here:

http://www.flickr.com/services/api/upload.api.html

The equivalent in the navigator would be:

Code: Select all  Expand view

<form  method="post" accept-charset="utf-8" enctype='multipart/form-data'>
    <p>Name: &nbsp; <input type="text" name="name" value="" ></p>
    <p>Picture: <input type="file" name="file"/></p>
   <p><input type="submit" value="Submit"></p>
  </form>

Thank you very much.

Alvaro

My advice is to use curl. Here you have some examples:

See my posts here on these forums for curl:

Gracias Antonio.

Al final he usado PHP que era más sencillo.
