1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
U-Upload Cart is an FTP file upload applet with over 50 customizable parameters and an advanced file selection interface. Using U-Upload Cart's parameters, you can create fully customized, simple to use, file/image upload site for your users. To customize U-Upload Cart, you must edit "uuploadcart.js" file with an HTML/text editor. You can then use the following tables as a guide to customizing each of U-Upload Cart's parameters.
Then add the following line to your HTML file:
<script language="javascript" src=" uuploadcart.js"></script>
You must also make sure that you either put uuploadcart.js in the same directory as your page, or the src parameter reflects the location of the script file.
If you require further assistance with setup, or are interested in related products and customization services, please visit our website.

Fig. 3.5 Progress status4 Configuring U-Upload Cart
These settings can be configured in uuploadcart.js. Note that every time you change these settings, you will need to upload the modified uuploadcart.js file.
4.1 Connection parameters
These parameters control how U-Upload Cart will establish the connection to the FTP server.
Connection related settings
server The host name or IP address of the FTP server.
Default value: ""
Valid values: "<valid hostname or IP address>"port The port number of the FTP server. Usually the default FTP port is 21.
Default value: "21"
Valid values: "<valid port number>"pass The password for the FTP server account.
Default value: ""
user The username for the FTP server account.
Default value: ""
passive If set to "true", all data connections will be outgoing. U-Upload Cart works through firewalls when this value is set to "true". If you are using an FTP proxy, set this value to "false".
Default value: "true"
Valid values: "true", "false"encrypt If set to "true" you must pass encrypted user/pass/server parameters to U-Upload Cart, which will decrypt them and perform the login. The encryption is based on a key value that is specified by the "ek" parameter below. To encrypt parameters you can use encrypt.html that was downloaded with U-Upload Cart. This provides at least some measure of protection from prying eyes, and people who love to snoop through your HTML.
Although this seems very un-secure to include the encryption algorithm along with the applet, keep in mind this is only a way to hide login credentials from users who try to view the HTML source of your page. Determined hackers will easily be able to sniff the network to retrieve user and password info regardless of the encryption done in the HTML.
Default value: "false"
Valid values: "true", "false"ek This parameter works in conjunction with the "encrypt" parameter. This is the key that is used to encode/decode the string value you pass to the user, pass, and server parameters. Here is an example configuration. In this example, the server/user/pass strings are 192.168.1.100/anonymous/uftp@unlimitedftp.com respectively. This illustrates how the parameters will look to anyone who inspects the connection values in your HTML:
var server = "8I7BLHN;8I8@5";
var port = "21";
var pass = "|vy&[)&yp*p&jx#((;j,t";
var user = "h~t$6!=$z";
var autoconnect = "true";
var autoreconnect = "true";
var passive = "true";
var encrypt = "true";
var ek = "encryptkey";Default value: ""

Valid values: "<valid URL>"4.6 Language settings
U-Upload Cart's language settings allow you to customize the text on the applet. This can be accomplished by modifying the text elements provided in the lang_en.txt file. Alternatively if you wish to provide support for multiple languages you may create a separate language file for each language you wish to support. Using this method you can dynamically load the language file based on the "language" parameter provided to U-Upload Cart.
For example, if you wish to create a language file that contains the text elements for the German language then follow these steps:
- Copy the default lang_en.txt file to a new file named lang_de.txt
- Update the text element values in lang_de.txt providing the German equivalents.
- Adjust the language parameter of U-Upload Cart with the value of "de".
- Upload lang_de.txt and the modified uuploadcart.js files to the web server directory that contains U-Upload Cart.
Note: If no language parameter is provided then the default lang_en.txt file is used.
5 Advanced Features
5.1 Advanced file selection interface
U-Upload Cart will let you automatically preview any image files before uploading the same. If there is no preview available U-Upload Cart will display the default preview for non image file.See Section 3.2 for selection preview box.
5.2 Loading U-Upload Cart dynamically
In some cases, it may be desirable to load the U-Upload Cart applet dynamically using JavaScript or using a server side scripting language such as JSP, PHP or ColdFusion. If this is the case, you may want to move the contents of uuploadcart.js into your dynamic page by cutting and pasting the entire source in between two <script> tags. You can then replace the variable values with values obtained from your dynamic page. Here is an example:
<%
String username = "anonymous" ;
String password = "uftp@nlimitedftp.com" ;
String hostname = "ftp.sun.com" ;
String port = "21" ;
%>
<script>// Connection related values
var server = " <%= hostname %> " ;
var port = " <%= port %> " ;
var pass = " <%= password %> " ;
var user = " <%= username %> " ;...
</script>
5.3 Integrating U-Upload Cart with your web applicationFurther to loading U-Upload Cart dynamically, you may want to fully integrate U-Upload Cart into your web application's workflow. To do this we provide a way to automatically redirect after the upload is complete. This allows you to use U-Upload Cart as a means to move the files to your FTP server. There are 4 URLs you can use to redirect after uploads are complete. "callurlaftertransfer" , "transfererrorurl" , "transfercancelurl", "othererrorurl". All of these are described in Section 4.3.
U-Upload also provides the "postURL" and "sendLogsToURL" parameters, also described in Section 4.3.
