on-rev file upload and upload path?

[JOHN PATTEN]

Never mind :)  

It is very easy just to have the LC server write out the file.

In stack: 

on mouseUp
   put cd fld "UserAccount" into tFileName
   put cd fld "uploadText" into tUploadText
   
   put "title=" before tFileName
   put "bodytext=" before tUploadText
   
   put tFileName & "&" & tUploadText into tPackage
   
   post tPackage to URL "http://example.on-rev.com/ADirectory/myproject.lc"
   
--answer the result
   
end mouseUp



and on the server:

<?lc 
open file $_POST["title"]
write  $_POST["bodytext"] to file $_POST["title"]
close file $_POST["title"]

?>


Thanks!

I've looked at the tutorial here http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4070/l/40708-how-to-upload-a-file-with-livecode-server and noticed in the comments that the file gets uploaded to tmp. However, when I look there I don't see the file…?  But it reports a successful upload.
