    Ajax Uploader - ManualStartUpload="true"

    Hello,
     
    I am using an Ajax uploader control with ManualStartUpload="true".  My problem is that on the same page, I am doing a lot of Jquery Ajax calls to populate various parts of the page. So the main page has several parts that get their HTML and data by making Jquery AJAX calls.  While I can use the Ajax uploader control to browse for and select files, on my Submit click, I need to also do the upload in client side with out going back to the server side code.  when I try to do this, I get the following error message:
     
    'the State information is invalid for this page and might be corrupted'  
     
    In my client side function when the submit button is clicked, I am finding the uploader object and calling uploader.startupload() on it.  The upload begins, and the indicator goes from 0% to 100% and turns green, but the above error message also shows up and there is a little warning icon next to the file that I tried to upload.  When I hover over the alert icon, the tool tip says cancelled.  Do you have any suggestions/ideas?
     
    Regards.

    Re: Ajax Uploader - ManualStartUpload="true"

    Thanks Ken, that worked.  In fact, I only had to set this:
     
    <pages enableEventValidation="false"> 
     
    I am pretty new to the Ajax Uploader control, so now that it uploads, I am trying to figure out where it uploads to, and how I can alter the location/directory of where the control uploads to?  Is there a setting that I can control to indicate to the Ajax Uploader control the path that uploaded files should be uploaded to?
     
    To elaborate further, I need to be able to set where the files get uploaded to (on a server in the network) and also, I need to also be able to control the names of the files (i.e a user may upload file01.pdf, but I will have to save it with a different name for example a CaseID + DateStamp).  The CaseID is a value that I already have in my app.
     
    Regards.

    Hi mchamo,
     
    Please refer to http://cutesoft.net/forums/thread/65579.aspx , the highlighted code set the destination folder.
     
     void Uploader_FileUploaded(object sender, UploaderEventArgs args)
    {
    //Copys the uploaded file to a new location.
    args.CopyTo("c:\\temp\\"+args.FileName);
    //You can also open the uploaded file's data stream.
    //System.IO.Stream data = args.OpenStream();
    }
    You can write customization code and change "c:\\temp\\"+args.FileName to the actual file name based on your requirement.
     
    Thanks for asking

    Re: Ajax Uploader - ManualStartUpload="true"

    Hi Eric, is there anyway to achieve this using client side code without going back to the server?  Or is there anyway to perform client side code on the file uploaded event?  Basically, I don't want the fileuploaded event to cause a postback.  for example, for an asp button, I can do the following code on load, to perform client side code on the click event:
     
    btnCancelNCODiv.Attributes.Add("onclick", "hideDIVNCO(); return false;") 
     
    when I try to do something similar on the Ajax uploader control, I notice that attributes is not a known property for the ajax uploader control?  Basically, I don't a post back to occur when the file finishes uploading.
     
    Any Thoughts or suggestions?
     
    Thank you.

    Hi mchamo,
     
    First you need to know that, the uploader need to upload the file to the server, so the postback is necessary.
     
    If you need user finish some input or  similar situations and than postback to the server. Please try use manually upload. Below is the online demo.

    Re: Ajax Uploader - ManualStartUpload="true"

    thanks for your reply Ken.  I have reviewed this demo several times and I have looked at the source code but have not found a resolution to what I am trying to do.  Is there  a way to kick off some client side code on the FileUploaded event before heading back to the server event that handles the event?

    Re: Ajax Uploader - ManualStartUpload="true"

    Hi mchamo,
     
    Please try the example below. Function "CuteWebUI_AjaxUploader_OnSelect" will fire before the uploader control postback to the server. So you can execute your own script code in it before the "FileUploaded" event.
     
    <%@ Page Language="C#" %>

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head id="Head1" runat="server">
        <title>Untitled Page</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <form id="form1" runat="server">
            <CuteWebUI:Uploader ID="Uploader1" runat="server">
            </CuteWebUI:Uploader>
        </form>
    </body>
    </html>
    <script>
    function CuteWebUI_AjaxUploader_OnSelect(files)

    {
        alert("before postback!");

    }
    </script>

    Re: Ajax Uploader - ManualStartUpload="true"

    Ken, I tried your recommendation of using the 
    CuteWebUI_AjaxUploader_OnSelect javascript event.  The problem with this is that when using the manual start upload approach, the 
    CuteWebUI_AjaxUploader_OnSelect event kicks off as soon as you select a file for upload but not when you click your button to submit and actually begin the upload.  As a result, this event is too early.  I am looking for a JS event that  I can use which has 
    has access to the files selected for upload but that kicks off when uploadobj.startupload() is executed.
     
    For example, I think I might be able to achieve this using this event:
     

    function CuteWebUI_AjaxUploader_OnStart()

    {

    // Code goes here 
    } 
     
    But, I am not sure if I would be able to perform some code in the above mentioned event to perform the upload without going server side. Within the above JS event, I can access the AJAX uploader control with the key word this, can I use that to perform some JS code, for example, that would achieve the same thing as doinf this server side.
     
        Private Sub Uploader_FileUploaded(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal args As UploaderEventArgs)              
            args.CopyTo("C:\\" & Date.Now.ToShortDateString().Replace("/", "") + ".pdf")
        End Sub
     
    Any thoughts?  Thanks.
