Ken,

    OK, i was able to fix the problem so it works are pure ajax uploader the solution is below.   However, i need to restrict it so only one file can be uploaded and i also need to hide the panel that shows you the files i uploaded. i will start another forum for them...  thanks

 

 <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
 </asp:ScriptManager>

 <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UploadPanel"  runat="server"  >
    <ContentTemplate>
 
 <script type="text/javascript">
     function submitbutton_click() {
         alert("submitbutton_click");
         var submitbutton = document.getElementById('<%=SubmitButton.ClientID %>');
         var uploadobj = document.getElementById('<%=FileUploader1.ClientID %>');
         if (!window.filesuploaded) {
             if (uploadobj.getqueuecount() > 0) {
                 uploadobj.startupload();
             } else {
                 var uploadedcount = parseInt(submitbutton.getAttribute("itemcount")) || 0;
                 if (uploadedcount > 0) {
                     return true;
                 }
                 alert("Please browse files for upload");
             }
             return false;
         }
         window.filesuploaded = false;
         return true;
     }

   function CuteWebUI_AjaxUploader_OnPostback() {
         alert("OnPostBack");
         window.filesuploaded = true;
         var submitbutton = document.getElementById('<%=SubmitButton.ClientID %>');
         submitbutton.click();
         return false;
     }
    </script>


 
    <CuteWebUI:UploadAttachments  ID="FileUploader1" ClientIDMode="Static"    MaxFilesLimit="1" runat="server"  TempDirectory="~/UploaderTemp"  OnUploadCompleted="Uploader1_UploadCompleted" OnFileUploaded="Uploader1_FileUploaded"     >
