OnClientFilesDropping

The client-side FilesDropping event is raised when the user drops the files for uploading in the file list of RadFileExplorer.

To handle this event, simply write a JavaScript function that can be called when the event occurs. Then assign the name of this function as the value of the OnClientFilesDropping property of the control.

The client-side OnClientFilesDropping event handler receives two arguments:

Sender: The RadFileExplorer object that fired the event.

Event arguments: A cancelable event arguments object of type Sys.CancelEventArgs that exposes the following methods:

Table 1: OnClientFilesDropping Event Arguments Object

Name	Parameters	Return Type
get_cancel()	Boolean	Returns a value that indicates whether the event is cancelled.
get_count()	Integer	Returns the count of the dropped items.
get_dropArgs()	Object	Returns the drop arguments of the underlying RadAsyncUpload control.
set_cancel(value)	Boolean	Sets whether the event will be cancelled (if true is passed).
