Remarks

The WpPostFile function is simply a version of the WpPost function that is accessible through WpObj's COM Interface. The functionality is identical to that described in WpPost except as follows:

• The WpPostFile function can only accept a single file for posting (although that file may be a directory, in which case all files within it will be posted).
• The WPF_NO_WIZARD flag is disabled, and the WPF_SHOWPAGE_SRCFILE flag is automatically set. This is to ensure that users who may download a Web page that uses this method are always prompted before any files can be uploaded from their machine.
