'file' input missing if disabled server side

[ANDREW]

Hi,

I'm having an issue with the RadAsyncUpload control where if the control is disabled on the server side, then enabled on the client side, the 'Select' button doesn't work.

I have narrowed this down to the <input type="file" class="ruFileInput" id="....file0" .....> element not being rendered when disabled on the server side.

If I manually add what that element 'should' be (including it's name/id etc) then it starts working as expected.

Serverside I am calling control.Enabled = false;

Clientside I am calling jsControl.set_enabled(true);

On the same topic, by disabling the control server side, the following other elements appear to get left out too (although they don't appear to affect my use of the control):

* List item's ID (<li>) -> id="....row0"
* 'file' input (described above)
* label for='....file0'
* 'ruDropZone' div

Can you give any suggestions as how to be disable this control serverside while still being able to use it after re-enabling client side? I have considered handling all disabling/enabling client side which would probably work ok but it seemed a bug for it not to work the way I have described??

Cheers,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Yes, this is a bug which I have logged. Until we resolve it you may use the following workaround:

function enableRadAsyncUpload() {
    var upload = $find('RadAsyncUpload1');
    upload.set_enabled(true);
    upload.addFileInput();
    upload.deleteFileInputAt(0);
}
