How to delete correct file using a custom handler

[Dwayne]

I am using q2 2010. I am using the radasyn control to upload files. The Issue I am having is I can't tell which file to delete and remove. Say I have 5 files uploaded and want to remove one, since I uploaded all the files to the DB I need to delete the fiel from the DB as well as the client screen. I can'''t seen to find a way to achieve both options. I can delete from the client screen but can delete from the db becasue I can't tell which file is being deleted. I can only get the index of the file. I have searched for some documentation on the onclientdeleteing eventargs but it is no longer used by the newer version . Do you have any suggestions. I have all the id for the files uploaded and associated with each image as the image id but I can't tell which file is being deleted. Thanks in advance

Hi Dwayne,

When remove a file, OnClientFileUploadRemoving event is fired. get_fileName() form the event arguments returns the file name.
Another suggestion is to upload files to the DB after the postback.
FileUploaded event occurs server-side for every file which is going to be processed.

Kind regards,

Thanks for the reply. I think I will use that suggestion. What I will do is append the id to the file name and use that as the image id so when I am deleting the file with a delete handler I have created i will know which file to delete. All the  files I am deleting and uploading are on the client using handlers so a post back doesn't occur. and I notice that if a post back happens the image is removed so you don't can't see the pictures anymore.  Thanks again  for the suggestion.

I have a similar issue. I would just like to get rid of the Remove option so the user never even has the option to remove a file when using the RadAsyncUpload control. Is there an option to hide the x Remove button associated with the uploaded file after it has been uploaded? Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi David,

Regarding your enquiry you can use CSS to hide the Remove button. Please add the following style to change the RadAsyncUpload appearance:

.ruRemove
{
    display:none !important;
}
