handleselect javascript method

Reply Quote

I am having trouble using your javascript API. I am trying to check if a file already exists in our system, as a user is attempting to upload a file. If it does exist, I need to give them a message asking if they want to overwrite the file. I am trying to use the handleselect method to grab the files that are being uploaded, but i can't seem to get the list of files being uploaded. Here's the code I'm using:

uploader.handleselect = function() {
alert('handleselect');
var items = this.getitems();
alert('Files selected: ' + items.length);
return false;
};

If I use the CuteWebUI_AjaxUploader_OnSelect method, I can get to the files from the "files" parameter, but i think i need to use the handleselect method since i am trying to filter the list of files, then start the upload manually using startupload( ), which by the way doesn't seem to fire when i call it from another javascript method.

Any ideas on how i can get to that list of files from handleselect, and also call startupload? Is there an on-line reference of the javascript methods available on the Uploader object, one that's more complete than http://ajaxuploader.com/document/index.htm#page=JavaScript-API.htm?

Thanks...

Hi,

In the handleselect event , you can use the same parameters:

uplaoder.handleselect=function(selectingitems)

{
}

You should not use getitems() , because the selectingitems are not added into the uploader items yet.
