uploading and processing a password protected word document with asp

Hello,

An ASP page on my IIS server converts an uploaded word document to
HTML, but I'm having a problem with it failing (hanging and popup
requesting password on server!) on password protected word documents.
(web upload, backend processing and web delivery)

I spent the whole day on google to find a solution. What I am looking
for is an asp script or a property that can look at a word document and
just return a yes or no as to whether it is protected, so I can then
refuse to upload it, until the user has removed the protection.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Wout

The script checks the login against the mySQL database. This type of protection will only affect the .php pages, won't it? The images that are contained in the pages are not protected, as they would be if I had a .htaccess file on the parent directory..? This...

I've been trying to execute a javascript function just before submit on a form that contains an <input type="file"> input field and it isn't working.

I want to disable the form buttons so they can't hit them after they hit the "upload" button. We're trying to prevent them from...
