Upload Image with Flash via ASP.NET

Hi,

I need help with uploading a image from Flash.

And before you say anything about this is a asp.net forum, I have to say that flash can't upload files to a server by itself, but needs another scripting language for this. We have been using a PHP-script for devoloping, and it looks like this:

<?php
//create the directory if doesn't exists (should have write permissons)
if(!is_dir("./temp_files")) mkdir("./temp_files", 0755);
//move the uploaded file
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'], "./temp_files/".$_FILES['Filedata']['name']);
chmod("./temp_files/".$_FILES['Filedata']['name'], 0777);
?>

The Flash-application calls this script with ActionScript 2.0 like this:

//Allow this domain
System.security.allowDomain("sub.mydomain.com");

import flash.net.FileReference;
// The listener object listens for FileReference events.
var listener:Object = new Object();

// When the user selects a file, the onSelect() method is called, and // passed a reference to the FileReference object.
listener.onSelect = function(selectedFile:FileReference):Void {
  //clean statusArea and details area
  statusArea.text = details.text = ""
  // Flash is attempting to upload the image.
  statusArea.text += "Vald fil: " + selectedFile.name + "\n";
  // Upload the file to the PHP script on the server.
  selectedFile.upload("http://sub.mydomain.com/temp_upload.php");
};

// the file is starting to upload.
listener.onOpen = function(selectedFile:FileReference):Void {
	_root.laddabild.gotoAndPlay(2);	
  statusArea.text += "Skickar " + selectedFile.name + "\n"; }; //Possible file upload errors listener.onHTTPError = function(file:FileReference, httpError:Number):Void {
	imagePane.contentPath = "error";
	_root.laddabild.gotoAndStop(1);	
	imagePane.content.errorMSG.text = "HTTPError number: "+httpError +"\nFile: "+ file.name; }

listener.onIOError = function(file:FileReference):Void {
	imagePane.contentPath = "error";
	imagePane.content.errorMSG.text = "IOError: "+ file.name; }

listener.onSecurityError = function(file:FileReference, errorString:String):Void {
	imagePane.contentPath = "error";
	imagePane.content.errorMSG.text = "SecurityError: "+SecurityError+"\nFile: "+ file.name;	
}

// the file has uploaded
listener.onComplete = function(selectedFile:FileReference):Void {
  // Notify the user that Flash is starting to download the image.
  statusArea.text += "Uppladdning klar.\nSkickar foto " + selectedFile.name + " till ramen\n";
  //Show file details
  details.text = ""
  
  for(i in selectedFile) details.text +="<b>"+i+": "+selectedFile[i]+"\n"
  // Call the custom downloadImage() function.
  downloadImage(selectedFile.name);
};

var imageFile:FileReference = new FileReference(); imageFile.addListener(listener);

uploadBtn.onPress = uploadImage;
imagePane.addEventListener("complete", imageDownloaded);

// Call the uploadImage() function, opens a file browser dialog.
function uploadImage(event:Object):Void {
  imageFile.browse([{description: "Image Files", extension: "*.jpg;*.gif;*.png"}]); }

// If the image does not download, the event object's total property // will equal -1. In that case, display am error message function imageDownloaded(event:Object):Void {
  if(event.total == -1) {
    imagePane.contentPath = "error";	
  }
}

Now I don't know anything about Flash, or ActionScript, but I know ASP.NET. However, I cant find the .NET equivalent of that PHP-script. I've done quite a bit of searching, and come up empty handed. But someone has to have done this before..? I can't use PHP because of the web servers limitations.

Any help is appreciated!
