Events For Input=file
May 5, 2006
<INPUT id="File1" style="WIDTH: 530px; HEIGHT: 22px" type="file"
size="70" name="File1" onclick="myFunction;">
Using this code, I'm able to catch the event that occurs when I click
in the "browse" button or in the text input box.
I need to catch another event: when the user has chosen the file in the
dialog and pressed "Open".
I can't us onpropertychange because what I want to do is to check the
name of the chosen file and eventually modify the text area. This would
make a recursive onpropertychange event call... so I need something
else.

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?

was wondering when you create an input element, i.e.
var someInput = createElement('input');
How do you add an event to an input item?
like a onKeyUp event.

I am trying to achieve something that I have seen on many forms throughout the web; I am currently learning JavaScript so please bare with my beginner status. So I have a form and on every input button, I want the value to disappear when clicking on it; and if no text is entered, the original value is returned..
So far I have this inside every input button and i'm beginning to struggle with 'the next step': onfocus="if(this.value=='Email')this.value=''"
Is there a simpler way to achieve this with multiple buttons rather than copying this into every button?

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:

I am trying to create a script that onload will attach an onclick and onchange event to all fields.I have also tried using setAttribute instead of attachEvent and it still does not work.Basically what the events do is disable a interval when an input field is selected and enable the interval when it is no longer selected.

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]

I am trying to "ajaxify" my site. Now I have one problem:
$("#posts").children().remove();
$("#tag-sidebar").children().remove();
$.each(data.Tags_Sidebar, function (indexInArray, valueOfElement) {
var insert = $("<li>");
[Code]......
Now when I click one of those links (href1, href2, href3) generated, the click event won't execute! What's the problem? Also, is it right that I have to transfer the valueOfElement over, like I did? What does stopEventPropagation do? Prevent the href from being navigated to? That's what I am trying to do.
The data object is JSON fed from here:[URL]
The HTML is here: [URL]

In Mozilla (Firefox 1.0.7) I can cloneNode a file input element that
has a selected file value and appendChild it to another form without a
problem.
IE 6 loses the selected file value. Is this a bug with IE that it
loses the value, or with FF that it keeps it?
I'd really like to be able to maintain the selected file value in IE.
Does anyone have any advice or experience with cloneNode that can
provide some insight?
I have not tried this on any browsers other than IE 6 and FF 1.0.7.

<div class="wrapperAttribsOptions">
This pice of code is dynamically created by my shopping carts admin section which is an attribute for a certain product.
The problem I have is that all the attributes are displayed in an array and positioning each is not possible (well, I have posted a query in another forum with regards to that). I have taken the code, as viewed in the source code, and added it in where I please e.g. radio buttons, checkboxes etc, which function perfectly.
This does make 'duplicate' field but I have used display:none on the generated code which hides it. I have found a snippet of code which fixes issues will type=text fields....
But this can not be done when it comes to type=file.
Once you browse and select your image, i need the directory to be entered into the 'real' field for uploading when submitted.

<input type="file" />
For the above input, is there any way I can change the value? I found that adding: value="asdf" doesn't change anything with a type="file" input.
