The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Dynamic Form input type="file"

Asked by ralphcarey in Dynamic HTML (DHTML), JavaScript, Scripting Languages

Tags: ,

Hi,

This code, as the body of an HTML document, uploads the user selected file as expected:

<iframe src="/scripts/blank.html" name="backFrame" id="backFrame"></iframe>
<form method="POST" id="postForm" action="/cgi-bin/upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" target="backFrame">
<input type="file" id="inptfle" name="inptfle" class="bttn impbttn1">
<input type="submit" id="subbttn" class="bttn impbttn2" value="Import">
</form>

All well & good, but when I try to add these elements dynamically IE v6 doesn't send the full file information, just the name as if it was a standard parameter - I have checked this with a network sniffer and confirmed that this is the case.

I can simulate this scenario by removing the 'name' property from the 'file' element in the plain HTML document and suspect that this may be related to the problem but I have checked (using IE Developer Toolbar) and the name does appear to be the present.

Any ideas would be welcome - a simple snippet that is known to work under IE v6 and dynamically creates a form with just a single input/file element would be a start.

I have tried numerous options including creating the element using both document.createElement and formobject.innerHTML but nothing has worked. The code that works well under Safari (OS X) but always fails under IE v6 (W XP).
