It woudl be great if we coudl access an images dimensions on upload, to avoid having to do server trips to determine if an image is valid.
Please resolve this, as this is a pain point for our customers.
Hi. I'd love to use the file upload widget, but, like most devs, I need to do more than just upload a file.....html does that just fine. I need to be able to save the file name and size, possibly the extension, in a mysql database using php. Please consider these enhancements to the file upload widget for the next release. I know you all are working on PHP wrappers and I hope a lot more documentation and tutorials for us PHP developers, so an upgrade like this, or a tutorial on the site that provides a working example of saving file details to the database using PHP could be added easily. Thanks and keep the PHP stuff coming! It's making a huge difference and I think, based on the number of votes here, there are a ton of folks interested in using Kendo UI with PHP.
There appear to be a number of options missing from this control that keep it from being really powerful. For example: - there does not appear to be a method in which to access the files currently selected, in order to remove one. - If you want to limit the file types selected, you have to cancel the entire selection event, which will only piss off end users. -The only way to show a "remove" button is to have something post back to the server, which makes no sense if AutoUpload is false. - If you want to clear the list of uploaded items, you have to use jQuery to remove the LI's (WTF?) My proposed changes: - Have a Remove button regardless of whether there us a Remove URL set or not. If there is not a Remove URL set, disable the Remove/cancel button while files are being uploaded. - Add a clear() method to remove all files, uploaded or otherwise. - Add a getFiles() method to get a list of all in-memory files being managed. - Add a remove(file) method, so that files that were accidentally selected can be removed in the Select event handler without having to choose between adding a server-side call and pissing off the end user. - Add a setFileTypes() method that lets you pass in an array of file types to accept. All others will be automatically removed from the collection. - Make the Drag&Drop capability set the drop zone visibility by default. You can manage that in jQuery without making me add more styles manually. Thank you for your consideration.
I think, it would by great, to have option to chunk files into smaller pieces. It allows better uploading big files. When using PHP backend, there is max post size restriciton. I think, chunking method is faster etc.
