Name	String		The name of the cookie

Returns a cookie object. The following example shows how to read all cookies.

    for(c in request.cookies)
    {
      cookie = request.getCookie(c);
    }
   

uploadFile

uploadFile(element, 
           file, 
           maxLength = -1, 
           override = false) : boolean
 

Name	Type	Default	Description
element	String		The name of the upload element
file	String		The name of the file on the server
maxLength	Integer	-1	The max. length of the file
override	Boolean	false	Override the existing file?

Use this method to upload a file. When you want to limit the size of the file, use the maxLength argument (-1 means don't check). When the maxLength argument is omitted, there is no check on the contentlength. Make sure mod_wxjs has write permissions! The example shows how to upload all files:

    for(f in request.files)
    {
      request.uploadFile(f, "c:\\temp\\" + request.files[f].filename, -1, true);
    }
