Form Uploader Custom Error Message

Suite and Optimus Suite 5
#1

Hi,

I’m working with the dhtmlxForm specifically with the uploader in html5 mode, I want to display a custom error message when the upload fails, I’m using the event onUploadFail but it only receives the realName as a parameter

form.attachEvent(‘onUploadFail’,function(realName){
$(‘textarea[name=“errors”]’).append(‘File’ + realName + ’ could not be uploaded\r\n’);
}).

My server side script does some internal validation and already returns the proper error message like this:
{state:‘cancelled’,error: File ID 1826 already exists, cant upload it again!}

But I can’t seem to find a way to catch that error message, is there an easy way to achieve this?

I’m using dhtmlxSuite_v35_pro_120822

Thanks in advanced.

Hi

  1. please use attached updates

  2. change response a bit:

{state: false, extra: { error: "File ID 1826 already exists, cant upload it again!" } }
  1. on client side:

form.attachEvent('onUploadFail', function(realName, extra){ $('textarea[name="errors"]').append( 'File' + realName + ' could not be uploaded' + (extra != null && extra.error != null? ' (' + extra.error + ')' : '') + '\r\n' ); });

Hi, I’m using dhtmlx.js to include all of the components from this location

Do I add it to the ext folder and then add the script via html for it to work?
