    Files of type in browse button

    Reply Quote
     Question 1

    How do I show up only allowed file extension in browse dialog box. Currently by default, it shows All for both image insert and document insert.

    Current entries in browse dialogbox

    All Files(*.*)

    Pictures (*.gif, *.jpg)

    HTNL ( *.html, *.htm)

     Question2

    Is there any way I can show supported files types on dialog box. I don't want my customer to go and try some file and when he clicks upload he knows it is not supported. Instead some text letting him know what is supported would greatly help.
     
    thanks for help.

    Yes. You can get the file Extensions and Types.
     
    For example,  open InsertImage.Frame.aspx file. You can find the following code:
     
    foreach (string ext in secset.ImageFilters)
    {
    .....
    }

    Hi rpsu,
     
    HTML doesn't define restricted file types, you need to check if the file is a valid type *after* the user has selected the file and clicked open. It's a security restriction, the reason IE shows pictures and HTML as options is because Microsoft have chosen to do so, not because of any filters defined in the HTML.
     
    Different browsers may show different filters depending on what they feel are the most commonly selected file types.
