I am trying to upload multiple files using file input. And I am able to do that using "multiple" attribute of input type file. I can not use file API as I am using python on server side. So after user has selected the files, I want to access those file names in file input to let user cancel any file before uploading and upload rest of the files. The "value" attribute of input file does not work as it doesn't let me write.
Could anyone link me to an example of how to read a text file into a javascript variable using mootools or jquery(or explain it yourself)? Mootools would be preferred because my jquery framework is a little archaic.
I can't find a very comprehensive example only directions for how to make requests and the examples don't explain how to use the input. Oh and I'll be using this script on my website and the text file will be located on the same server.
I've been working in VBA for quite some time, and would like to make some of my scripts available through a browser. One script will open a text file, parse it, and then commit the parsed results into an object. I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this task in js...
For a calendar project implemented with pure HTML/CSS/JS I need to access local data files (.ICS). These ICS/iCal data has to be accessed also by other applications (eg. sync, backup, etc).Can anyone point to a possible solution to use HTML5 compatible calls (or jQ plugin) AND how to access the localStorage files also from the other apps.

Im writing client-side javascript and I want to do a server side include. There are many server files but only one will be included. These files contain peoples names and phone numbers. This info is packaged as a line of javascript but I can change that packaging if necessary.
The file name to include is being passed as a url parameter: [url]
I know how to parse the url string and stuff the ID number into a javascript variable.
I set <ICODE> foo = "/people/12345.html" </ICODE> and tried <ICODE><!--#include virtual="${foo}" --> </ICODE> but this did not work.
Is there a way to do this with javascript given that the name of the file I wish to include is contained in a variable? If not, what is the usual way of getting the data in the server file into my client-side javascript?
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.
I have several js files to include in Hml so was thinking if there is any way that i can includes all the files in one file and then include that file in the main html file so that i don't need to chnage the main file again and again
I'm writing a JS script that will be available as open source. This script needs some accompanying image files. I have been planning to package the .js and the image files together in a single directory and let the user put that directory anywhere they want. Trouble is, I can't figure out how to write JS code to put a reference to these image files into the html. The image files are relative to the .js file, but I haven't seen anyway to figure out the path to the .js file (i.e. the path to the code I am now running). Is there a way? If not, how do people usually package up a .js file and some accompanying image files?
Interested in building my own drag'n'drop file uploader using JQuery/AJAX/PHP. Basically I want a file-uploader that users of my site can just drag the file from their computer into a div I created, and it will then upload the file for them to the selected destination.
I would like to build this from scratch, and not use any plugins so that I can better manipulate the restrictions (file types, size, destination folders, etc.)Have scoured google with no luck, only plugins. Can anyway steer me in the right direction?
UPDATEI: how to do what I want. Just set the file input field opacity to 1 so it is hidden, and you can still drag a file into that general area and if you hit the text field it will catch it. HOWEVER, I would like to know how to increase the height/width on the file input field (tried basic css on the file, but it only increases the 'browse' button size and not the actual field where you can drop the file into. I basically want a big square div that says 'Drop file here'. So I need to resize the input field.
just came across this in a book for browser javascript on/off detection:
Code: <noscript> <img src="monitor.php?scriptoff=true" /> </noscript> just wondering if browsers when js is off will ever access any <script type="text/javascript" src="file.js"></script>
files? i mean wouldn't it be better not to bother with the noscript thing and just be aware of if file.js is accessed? or do some browsers access the file.js even when js is off?
I have used this script for multiple upload using one file control. In this i have give limit for upto 3 times user can upload. also user can remove which is uploaded. But main problem is when user remove last uploaded file than its ok but when user remove first uploaded file and then add new file that time user can upload more than 3 files? Whats the problem I can`t found.
My script is
<script language="jscript" type="text/javascript"> function getCount() { var cnt = 0; for ( var i = 0; i < upload_number; i++ ) {
is 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 wanna send a file thru the JQuery.load, I want it to work exactly like the regular post without the JQuery. So I can check the $_FILES['file']['error'] in PHP and all its features like I do without using JQuery.
$("#load").load('gerenciar_itens.php',{/* This is where I wanna pass the file. */}, function(data){ alert(data); });
I 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:
