Hide input box

[Aaron]

Hi

I use a RadUpload to attach documents which are then rendered as records in a grid.
I upload a document by intercepting the OnClientFileSelected event of the upload control.

This all works fine.

What I want to do now is hide the input box as all I need is the 'browse' button.

Is there a way to hide the input box? or
Is there a way to fire the RadInput's click event from another control?

Cheers
Aaron

Hello Aaron,

1) The browse button only outlook can be achieved easily: simply add this css to your project:

        .ruFakeInput
        {
            display:none;
        }

2)It is not possible to upload files ( i.e. to press the upload button ) with javascript due to a security reasons. Otherwise, a malicious script would have had the possibility to upload whatever file from one's computer.

All the best,

As usual the Telerik team has great support, Thanks!

Worked straight way, although I will have to play with the styles a bit as the button has no left border in the skin I was using (Outlook).
