Re: how do I upload a picture with XML-RCP and java

Yes, thank you Sam, that improves my understanding: 1) Is it like: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Title</title> </head> <body> <h1>Hallo</h1> <form action="http://api.flickr.com/services/upload/" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="c:/myphoto.jpg" /> <input type="title" name="My Photo" /> <input type="is_public" name="1" /> <input type="is_friend" name="1" /> <input type="submit" value="los" /> </form> </body> </html> What can I do, if I only have the bytes or an java InputStream of the file? How can I post it? And how can I do it without any user action? 2) My problem is the '@lt;' must I convert this into '<' before I give it to the DOM Object? --- In yws-flickr-hHKSG33TihhbjbujkaE4pw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Sam Judson" <sam@...> wrote: > > 1) > > The uploading of photos is done via a HTTP POST using form variables.

RE: A couple Flickr API questions

There currently is no groups.getMembers method, but one is planned. Who knew that it didn't exist??!

how do I upload a picture with XML-RCP and java

While writing a program that loads photos up to flickr via XML-RCP I have two problems. 1. What do I have to send to flickr to upload the picture? -What is the methodName? Is it ‘flickr.upload’? – I don’t think so. - Does the photo data have to be binary data in the xml-data? 2. Why do I get an xml response that looks like that: <frob>746563215463214621</frob> instead of <frob>746563215463214621</frob> My Dom Object can’t read that xml-code. __._,_.___ SPONSORED LINKS Computer telephony Portable computer Computer telephony integration Computer telephony integration cti Developer network YAHOO!

RE: Missing signature Error suddenly...It was working fine for more then 6 month

Praveena - scroll up in the messages on this list for more details. But, in short: you are not signing your calls. A bug on our end meant that we accepted the API calls anyway, but we fixed that now and the sigs are required (as they should have been the whole time, per the spec: http://flickr.com/services/api/auth.spec.html - scroll down to #8, Signing).
