Hi all...
this is probably a really basic question...
what i'm trying to do is to validate whether the user has specified any files to be uploaded. I'm using just a single text box and a browse button.
I figured on using OnClientFileSelected to go to a function which will see if the file input string is zero length.
However, the event doesn't seem to be firing. Here is the RadUpload declaration:

However, the event doesn't seem to be firing. Here is the RadUpload declaration:
<telerik:RadUpload InputSize="40" Width="300" ID="RadUpload1" runat="server"
ControlObjectsVisibility="None" OnClientFileSelected="checkInputFilePath" />
<telerik:RadProgressArea ID="progressArea1" runat="server" Skin="" />
The function looks like this:
function checkInputFilePath(radUpload, eventArgs)
{
alert(
'here we are');
}
The alert never happens, though an alert downstream of this, in another function, does.
Anything additionally have to be set?
Thanks in advance

Hi dmc_lat47,
Do you type the invalid name to the file input field? In this case, alert should happen when the control looses the focus. FYI, we had some small problems with the file input skinning model of RadUpload in RadControls for ASP.NET Ajax version 2008.2 723. Please, download the latest version (released several days ago) and give it a try.
Kind regards,

what happens if I only want to check if the input text is zero length? that is, when someone hits 'submit' but has forgotten to specify a file to upload?
I did upload the new controls, and see the same behavior.
Maybe this isn't the way I should check for a "no-input" error condition?
thanks in advance

Hi dmc_lat47,
Please, check the RadUpload Client-Side Validation example. You can walk the RadUpload's file inputs and check if they are empty in the client-side validation function.
Let me know if that helps.

I think I'm missing something...
I took a look at the example you cited, and I think the relevant line is:
arguments.IsValid = getRadUpload('<%= RadUpload1.ClientID %>').validateExtensions();
And I looked in the documentation for the control, and found the radUpload.validateExtensions() function documentation.
However, I wasn't able to find a radUpload.FileInputIsZero() function, so I think I'm not understanding you.
thank you for your help

um..
sorry for the confusion. I did not see a "FileInputIsZero" in the documentation, that is what *i would like* to find...
to be clearer... i'm looking for some functionality that would tell me when the file specification entered by the user was zero length. The check I'm trying to make is if the user, for instance, forgot to specify a file to upload and hit submit.
I looked at the example cited, and could not figure out how to do this.
thanks

Hi Prassin,
I suppose you want to fire a serverside event when a file is selected in RadUpload. One suggestion is that you can add a Button and attach the click event to that Button inside the OnClientFileSelected event as follows.
CSS:
ASPX:
JS:
C#:
Hope this helps.
