Working with Files on the Server

ColdFusion

The CFFILE tag handles file on the server. It has eight "action" values: Upload, Move, Rename, Copy, Delete, Read, Write and Append. The last three apply to text files. The Upload action handles a file uploaded from a form. You can specify types of files to accept, where on the server to save the file, what to do in case of a name conflict, etc.

The CFDIRECTORY tag has four "action" values that affect directories: Create, Delete, Rename and List.



ASP

The FileSystemObject provides access to the file system of the web server. You can get and manipulate information about all of the drives in the server, both physical drives and remote drives that the web server is connected to. You can get and manipulate information about all of the folders and sub-folders on a drive, and about all of the files inside a folder.



PHP

There are 56 different functions avaible in PHP for handling files and directories on the server. All of the usual requirements are covered.
