Upload on click dropzone

[Emanuele]

Hi,
I wonder if there is any way to include in a dropzone container a functionality of uploading a file
by clicking on it? In other words keep two functionalities in one place.

I'll leave here the dojo sandbox for reference  https://dojo.telerik.com/iFEriwoK

Best regards,

Emanuele

Hi Emanuele,

You can attach a click handler to the span element in the dropzone:

<span style="color: red;" onclick="onClick()">or click here</span>

And in the handler trigger the click event of the Upload's input element:

function onClick() {
  $("#files").click();
}

This way clicking on the span will bring up the Upload's file selection dialog. Updated dojo example.
