Required Validating for multiple RadUploads

[Imran]

Hello

I have a page with 2 RadUploads and one submit button. There is also a RadProgressManager and RadProgressesArea.

The files that are going to be uploaded will be large. At the moment, I have server code that checks/validates to see if the user has selected two files. The problem is that, the files gets uploaded first, before the validating function is called.

So if the user uploads a big file in only one RadUpload, only when its finished uploading, does code get called to validate.. in which cases it'll throw up some validating error message. So the user will have to upload the one file again.

Is it possible to somehow do some client validation to check if the user has selected two files.. or even server check before file starts to upload?

Any help would be greatly appreciated..Thank you.

Hello Imran,

I suggest that you take a look at the following help article that shows a possible approach to this problem. I also have some good news for you. Together with the Q2 release we will release updated upload control that will be able to validate the size of the files entirely on the client, without the need of RadProgressArea/RadProgressManager. The Q2 release is scheduled for the middle of July. Stay tuned!
