Hi JC,

RadAsyncUpload uses Upload Modules for different browsers. For Internet Explorer it uses Silverlight which allows to display the filter extensions in Open Dialog Window. For other modules that support rest of the browsers filter is working but it is not displayed in the Open Dialog Window as modules don't support it. Here is the help topic where this issue is explained.

Thanks,
Shinu.

Hi shinu, in javascript how can I check if File Api is used as the module object for uploading? Also is it possible to get browser name with version?

Hi JC,

Please have a look at the following JavaScript code to check for File API module.

JavaScript:

var radasyncupload = $find('<%=RadAsyncUpload1.ClientID %>');
if (radasyncupload.get_loadedModuleName() == "File API") {
    //your code
}

You can use the window.navigator object contains information about the visitor's browser. Please visit this link to know more about this.

Thanks,
Shinu.
