I am trying to upload using file input but it does not show path of file only file name. How am I suppose to upload and read it.

I have a form like this:
Code:
<input type="text" id="forename" />
<input type="text" id="surname" />
<input type="file" id="myfile" />
The first two fields obviously contain text data, and the last is a file upload field.I can get the values of the first two fields in JavaScript easily by using:
Code:
var forename = document.getElementById("forename").value;
var surname = document.getElementById("forename").value;
But I don't have a clue how to get the contents of the file uploaded.
If I use:
Code:
var myfile = document.getElementById("myfile").value;
That simply returns the filename of the file, but I want the actual data in the file!Now I realise that the data probably isn't even accessed from the users hd until the form is submitted properly and sent to a server-side script (which I'm not doing), so I probably need a hackish method to make the browser send the contents to the JS function rather than as an extra 'package' to the server.
I need to upload/read an xml from a local drive of any platform (linux, windows, mac) and synchronize it with my web server, which will then update my DB. Local xml file path is predefined and stored in my DB. This is part 1.Part 2, I will have to update the sync(ed) xml and replace the file on my local drive.Part 1 and part 2 will execute in sequence when the user click on a "Sync" button after logged in.Here is what I plan to use, PHP, MySQL, Javascript.What I know so far.1. Due to security reasons we cannot dynamically update the value of the input file type. So setting the known file location is not possible.I will like to know if there is anyway we can upload/read & overwrite a xml file without any middleware like adobe air that needs to be pre-installed to any of the platform to achieve what I plan to do?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to put in place a file upload validation check. So at the client-side, the User selects a file. Before uploading, at the GUI, if the file exceeds an imposed limit, it will prompt the User that it exceeds the permitted size for upload.
And if it is within the permitted size, the full file path of the file to be uploaded will then be obtained and then used for the actual upload to the Server.
My program is built on EXTJS and Java, running using Tomcat. Browser restricted to Internet Explorer 7 only.
I have a problem with the latest version of the jQuery Form Plugin (2.80). To be more precise, I guess I am doing something wrong, and with an older version (2.67) somehow it didn't matter.With the old version, the file was uploaded without problems. Now Firefox opens a new Tab on clicking the submit button and nothing is done. Chrome doesn't open a new tab, but also nothing happens. In Wireshark I can see that there is no file attached in the POST message with the older version, the file was sent.My first guess was that my file handling on the server side is erroneous - but on the other hand, when there is no file attached, what should I handle there?

I am currently working on an announcements portlet for a dashboard that my team is creating. What is desired is to be able to have this portlet access a stored text file (file can be edited so content is subject to change) that will have all the information needed for these announcements. The JavaScript will then write it into a html file. I am a novice at html, and javascript;
View 5 Replies View RelatedI implemented Malsups jquery form and use it for ajax file uploads. Works fine in FF, but in IE as soon as the ajax has completed the upload IE gives me a File Download box - Security warning. If I click on save it save thereturnedJson object (I do JS call onsuccessto get a file list and display it). If I click cancel or save on the popup has same effect the file still gets uploaded but just looks ugly.
How can I get rid of this? All coming form the same domain, calling from the same domain. This is on a python django project and I am testing it on the dev server.
Its pretty basic jquery nothing to exciting, don't get why IE would cause.
how can I upload a .doc or .txt file and then that file to appear in a textbox
View 2 Replies View RelatedI know that the input "file" type can't be customized very well using css, so I figured I might try to make my own with javascript. The only problem is, I don't know too much about javascript. point me in the right direction on how to make my own custom file upload box in javascript that works the same way as the default one works (so I don't have to edit my PHP coding). Also, heres something I'd like to achieve: [URL]
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am wanting to simplify a page that I'm writing... the guts behind the page is PHP and wondering if it's possible to upload a photo in one click. How would I approach having the browsed file detected once it's populated into the form field and have it auto uploaded? Can this be
done?
Could anybody explain why does the following code :
<form name="upload" method="post">
<input type="file" name="file_1" style="display:none" />
<input type="text" name="text_1" />
<a
href="javascript:document.forms['upload'].elements['file_1'].click();">
Open
</a>

open the file dialog for selecting a file for upload in the Internet
Explorer, whereas in the FF 2.0 does not?
This Scripts allows you to upload files using AJAX (I'm not an
expert). The site claims it's the best way to upload files out there,
and the file size is only 1 kb.
I couldn't get it to work for me. I downloaded the files to my
computer, and opened the index file with my browser. It doesn't work
(the demo on their site does); IE doesn't show any error messages or
anything, and FF shows a single word that might be treated as an error
notifier: 'undefined'. Does this thing even work? If it does, could
anyone please give me detailed steps on how to using it on my site?
Code:
I've created a PhP page(Main) which will list records and a link to change their "thumbnail". Clicking on it will open a "pop-up" which will present a "File input" box and when user select a file to upload, this popup-page will send the form fields to a "process page" using AJAX. This Process page will upload the file and on success returns nothing else the error to the Ajax object in Popup. On return, the popup page will just reload the thumbnail on main page if success and closes itself.
I'm sure I've described what I wanted to do. Again, in brief: Main->(Opens Popup)->Popup->(Send file using AJAX)->Process Process->(Upload File & return result to)->Popup->(Reload img on Main and closes itself)->Main

View 15 Replies View RelatedWebsites like gmail.com use a file attachment system where the sender selects the file from his/her computer to be included within the message. The thing about this is that when the file is browsed upon there is NO browse input element to be shown.
I believe this somewhat prevents the user from messing around with the embedded filepath within the browse box (if they can mess it up). It also doesn't display such an ugly looking browsing box and it's file path.
i try to do upload file with process bar (ajax processing). who can give me some imformation or docuemnt about that.
i use php and jquery.
In JSP / HTML, I want to restrict the size of file being uploaded.
<input type="file" name="myfile"/>
If the user trying to upload a file size bigger than some value say 5MB, i want to give mesage to the user. I don't want to wait till the file gets uploaded to server and then validate the file size. I am looking for client side validation. Can it be done using scripting language or any other way?
Need a solution for this in Internet Explorer. I got a solution using ActiveX control:
var myFSO = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var filepath = document.getElementById('myfile').value;
var thefile = myFSO.getFile(filepath);
var sizeInBytes = thefile.size;
But ActiveX controls are not allowed in our application. Is there any alternative way for this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out the best way to use a PUT request to upload a file to a service. I've done some research on doing this with regular javascript and jquery.
I see that jQuery has support for PUT in the $.ajax method
The type of request to make ("POST" or "GET"), default is "GET". Note: Other HTTP request methods, such as PUT and DELETE, can also be used here, but they are not supported by all browsers.
However, I'm worried about the mention of browser compatibility. Does anyone know exactly what browsers do not support the PUT type for this $.ajax function? Its important that it work in IE6-9.
I'm trying to create an upload script which uploads the file without refresh, but somehow the script doesnt upload the file even though it processes the javascript correctly?
Here is what I have:
upload.php
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" >
[Code]....
If I just make a regular upload without the ajax it works fine so I think its within the javascript...
