Hi,

 

I am using the multiple file uploader with a manual start function - my problem is this:

 

I've got a page where users can add a gallery - and on the same page I have a multiple file uploader where they can assign files to that gallery. All of the uploading etc is working but I cannot seem to get the ID of the newly added gallery.

 

If I use the Uploader_FileUploaded method it adds a file to a new gallery each time not adding all the files to one gallery.

 

I've got a submit button and was using SubmitButton_Click in codebehind to add the gallery using Scope_Identity and then Uploader_FileUploaded method to add the files to the gallery. Is the Uploader_FileUploaded method triggered before the SubmitButton_Click event?

 

Sorry if this doesnt make any sense :-)

 

Please let me know if you need any more information.

 

thank you,

 

Scott

Scott:

 

Hi you may use this logic:

 

void Uploader_FileUploaded(...)

{

 

int galleryid;

object galleryidobj=ViewState["MyGalleryID"];

if(galleryidobj==null)

{

    galleryid=CreateNewGallery();

    ViewState["MyGalleryID"]=galleryid;
}

else

{

    galleryid=(int)galleryidobj;
}

 

DoInsertFile(args,galleryid);

}

If you want to collect all files in the submit button event, I suggest you use the UploadAttachments control:

 

void SubmitButton_Click(....)

{

    int galleryid=CreateNewGallery();

    foreach(AttachmentItem item in new ArrayList(UploadAttachments1.Items))

    {

          if(!item.Checked)continue;

          DoInsertFile(galleryid,item);

          item.Delete();

    }
}

 

Regards,
