display uploaded refs (server)?

[stevicus]

For RIS text file submission via BE Server, I've included:

Code: Select all

multiple="" name="upfile[]"

so that more than one RIS file can be submitted at once (with webkit and gecko). Instead of submitting this directly to BEpost, I am instead using php to echo out the contents of the text files into a textarea that allows them to edit the RIS info before submitting to BE Server.

After submitting, I would like to immediately display the results of the upload in the Foot submitted as an input value. I don't see a way to 1) retrieve the newly created unique IDs or 2) search for date added to database. The only way I can think of doing this is appending to each reference a timestamp into a user field and then submitting a search for that timestamp.

Is there a more straight forward way of doing this? Thanks.
