Hi Folks,
I am looking for some help importing values from a text file on a client machine into a list within an asp page. For example.....I have some functionallity that allows the user to add values one at a time to a list.....(via javascript) my problem is that the user may have as many as 500 - 2000 items to type in. I would like the user to import the values from the file or cut and paste the values from the file into the list array.
See current code that allows individual add's to the list.
any replies are greatly appreciated!
regards,
ejg
