[Solved] Internet Explorer 10 support?

[Mike Cousins]

Internet Explorer 10 supports multiple file uploads and file drag and drop. The demo doesn't work in it though. Is support planned in a version that is coming soon?

Hello Mike,

We generally do not support browsers in beta stage, but as soon as IE10 becomes official (or at least there is a release candidate), we will make sure that everything works as expected.

If you feel like experimenting, you can modify the _getSupportsDrop() method in telerik.upload.js to allow IE10 to create a drop zone.

Kind regards,

Here is the File API documentation:

We need to be able to end up with lines like this:

<input type="file" name="pic" multiple accept="image/jpeg" />

The "multiple" keyword enables multi-select on IE10 and the accept can let you filter the file types.  Hopefully you guys can implement this sooner than an RC or full release for IE10.  The API will not be changing so you don't need to worry about that.  I really want to get going on some projects with this.

Hi Mike,

The Upload component provides a Multiple() setting already, and you can set accept via HtmlAttributes().

Html.Telerik().Upload()
            .HtmlAttributes(new { accept = "image/jpeg,image/gif"})

From looking at the code the "multiple" keyword seems missing in the demo though.

<input id="attachments" name="attachments" type="file" /> 

That's what it shows when multiple uploads are enabled.

Hi Mike,

The multiple HTML attribute is applied with Javascript. If you inspect the <input> element in Firebug or the Web Developer Toolbar, you will see it.
