Uploading somewhere other than company home

Hi,I have followed the example in http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Scripts_Examples#Upload_Form to upload files to the alfresco repository. The files always end up in the company home space. how do I specify the space I want to use?eg. company home/user homes/abritrary spaceCheers,Mellen.

I've solved my query.

To select the space you want to upload to do this (if the space is in user homes):

var space_to_use = companyhome.childByNamePath("User Homes/path/to/space");‍

where "path/to/space" is the path to your desired space.

then to create the file in the selected space, change the file upload example
from

upload = companyhome.createFile("upload" + companyhome.children.length + "_" + filename) ;‍

upload = space_to_use.createFile("upload" + space_to_use.children.length + "_" + filename) ;‍

Thank you.
This works fine.
I was incorrectly assuming I needed 'companyhome' as a global at the beginning of the Path.

Note for Newbies…
Use the true path of where you want it to go.

e.g.
var space_to_use = companyhome.childByNamePath("Sites/uploads/documentLibrary/Uploads");
var space_to_use = companyhome.childByNamePath("Shared/Images");
var space_to_use = companyhome.childByNamePath("User Homes/reviewer/Review");

Hope this helps.
