I've got a major headache with IE in that I have a support form that allows users to submit tickets with files which is then emailed off.
Using javascript, jQuery and PHP I have everything under control with all of our favourite browsers - but then comes along IE.
support.php

<!-- file -->
<div class="fileUploadEntry">

I have a <input type = file> button for uploading a file in my php page. As soon as i select a file from the button, i need the file data to be displayed so that i check whether the file selected has the correct data. How can i do this.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form with three Input File form objects in which the user can add image files. But I am worried about the problems these controls can lead, because to check the file size the server needs to receive the entire file, so serious problems may happen, for example:
1. Malicious user trying to collapse the website sending big files.
2. Users that have not seen the warning “Maximum size: 100 KB� for each image, and try to send three image files consisting in 1,5 MB each one. These users will have a bad experience waiting one hour or more to upload the images, and after that receive an alert saying “Oooops! Your image files are too big.� And also, web server will waste an important amount of resources. The same case with 100 users at the same time can be a nightmare!
I have been searching a way to check the file size on client side without having to force user to install anything, but I think that there isn’ t nothing to do with javascript. But I found an interesting PHP article that explains a way to do it with this server side language. The technique consists in:
“A hidden field (measured in bytes) that precede the file input field, and its value is the maximum filesize accepted. This is an advisory to the browser, PHP also checks it. This form element should always be used as it saves users the trouble of waiting for a big file being transferred only to find that it was too big and the transfer failed. Code:
I have used ASP.net 1.1. In that application user can upload the file(any printable document like doc/xls/ppt/pps/jpg/gif etc.,). The user allows to upload a max of 4MB.
But if the user uploads more than 4MB I'll issue a msg. But in slow network, the user needs to wait for much time to upload and even get error msg.
I want to stop from client side itself. Once the user selects the file to upload it shud b checked frm Javascript.
* Is there any way to do achieve this?
* The user should not change security settings in browser, if u suggests some method.
* If it is not possible/meaningful then please tell me the reasons very clearly. So I can stop searching.
* Please note any printable document can be uploaded.
Am developing a form in which user image should be viewed and stored in web database. I am using html5 and javascript. While using input type= "file" to browse the image, chrome shows the file path as c:/fakepath/*.jpg.
How can I get the full path name in google chrome to display image and to store it in web database.
If you have some other options to display and store the image in web database using javascript and html5
I 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]

The objective is to make several uploads for files.

Do i need to add more info to the button?
As recently as 1.4.3 $('input:text') would find input elements with no type attribute, but after upgrading to 1.5.1 that is no longer the case.
Is this a bug or an intended refactor to be more standards compliant?
FYI - this is the selector I now have to use: $('input:text,input:not([type])')
can anyone tell me how do i disable the file type dialog box .
I want the user select the file through browse buttton,but i do not

I am trying to call a input from a javascript.
my input file
<input type="file" name="file" />
and javascript
<script type="text/javascript">
[Code]....
now the problem is if I add id="test1" in the input file the javascript stuff works but then actual thing that input file suppose to pass (File upload info) goes missing.
so I was wondering is there any way I could by pass adding the id part in the input and still call it?
I was thinking some thing like
$(document.forms[0].elements["file"]).fileinput(); but that's not working...
I have in my application input type file for uploading files. How can i do javascript validation to check if filename has special characters in it?
View 10 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.

View 2 Replies View Relatedis there a way to assign an event to a file input so that when a user selects a file to upload the event is triggered and i can check out the file extension? The reason why is simple, i want to perform different actions depending on the type of the file.

I have a form with 3 text inputs; onclick I pass their values to another php file to process everything in that file without a refresh, it works fine, but in the same form I also have a input and I need to pass its value to that other file as well, does anybody know how to do it? This is what I have:
function processform(){
$.post('processnewpostForm.php',
{title: newpostform.titleInput.value,

example with <ol> as parent.
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
var gFiles = 0;
function addFile() {
var li = document.createElement('li');
li.setAttribute('id', 'file-' + gFiles);
li.innerHTML = '<input type="file" name="file[]"><span onclick="removeFile('file-' + gFiles + '')" style="cursor:pointer;">Remove</span>'
document.getElementById('files-root').appendChild(li);
gFiles++;
}
function removeFile(aId) {
var obj = document.getElementById(aId);
obj.parentNode.removeChild(obj);
}
--></script>
<span onclick="addFile()" style="cursor:pointer;">Add</span>
<ol id="files-root">
<li><input type="file" name="file[]">

var gFiles = 0;
function addFile() {
var tr = document.createElement('tr');
tr.setAttribute('id', 'file-' + gFiles);
var td = document.createElement('td');

I'm posting this here because I think JavaScript is probably the only way to do it, but if anyone can point me elsewhere, that's fine.
In a bespoke CMS (not a publicly accessible application), I need to let my user upload files that are beyond the server's file upload size for http. I can use PHP to do this via ftp, but to do so I need the full path to the source file, which I could then pass in a hidden field. However, the value of the file input field only returns the filename, not the full path. I understand that this is for security reasons, but is there any way round it?
I've tried jumping through all manner of hoops to try and select the text in the field - which does show the full path of the browsed file - in order to put it in the hidden field, but so far I've failed. And I must do this in FF3 for various reasons.

Is is possible to populate a form input of type "file" with javascript?
Here is the code snippet from the form:
Code:
<div>
Media file: <input type="file" name="mediaFile[]" id="mediaFile1" onChange="duplicateEntry(this.value);" />
</div>
[Code]....
keep in mind that these are just code snippets and if this is possible, I'd just like to know how to do it.
I have a webpage where I want the user to input filenames. To make this easier,
I use a file input type so that the user can select files rather than typing in
the filename, using the HTML below.
<input type="file" size="25" maxlength="256" id="filename" onchange="AddFile()"/>
The problem I have is that the javascript function AddFile() is only run under
Internet Explorer, and not under Mozilla. I need the function to run each time a
file is selected as the filenames are added to a text box (the user is creating
a list of files).
Is there some way of having this work under Mozilla?
