replace folder upload rather than synchronisation


  • Subject: replace folder upload rather than synchronisation

hi!

i'm trying to amend one of the 'sample scripts' called 'DropUpload' included
with fetch 3.0.3 in os9.

it seems very simple in that it uploads folders/files to a web server using
fetch. the thing i'm trying to amend is the fact the script simply uploads
the files within a folder you drag onto it.

i need it to delete the contents of the folder first, then upload the new
files. this does synchronisation rather than completely replace!!

can i amend this script, or would i be better off starting from fresh?

cheers,

jake

p.s. this is a copy of the applescript:

property gDestURL : ""

on specify_destination()
set dialog_reply to display dialog "Enter Destination URL in format:" &
return & ,
" ftp://[user[:password]@]host/path"; & return & ,
"Where [...] is optional." default answer gDestURL
if button returned of dialog_reply = "OK" then
set gDestURL to text returned of dialog_reply
end if
end specify_destination

on open doc
if gDestURL = "" then
specify_destination()
end if
if gDestURL  "" then
with timeout of 60000 seconds
tell application "Fetch 3.0.3"
delete remote directory "f1"
put into url gDestURL item doc
-- quit
end tell
end timeout
end if
end open

specify_destination()
