File Uploads with jQuery Form and jQuery Validation

I am using two plugins for this page: http://www.higherwork.com/featured-job.html

1. jQuery form - http://jquery.malsup.com/form/
2. jQuerry validation - http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-validation/

One first link I posted, I am using a file upload being sent via AJAX. I have been reading the docs here:

http://jquery.malsup.com/form/#file-upload

When you fill out the form and hit submit, it just seems like it gets sent, but nothing happens. No page response or info pops up on the Console tab of firebug.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ryan

Where is it supposed to get uploaded too?
And are all the permissions set if necessary?

catonthecouchproductions🇺🇸

ASKER

Yes, it is being sent to a PHP page to handle the file upload and mail sending. It is being sent via AJAX.

Permissions are correct. It seems to be a client side issue. On submit does nothing. No PHP errors are returned.

Ok just before i go when i remove the validation script for testing and try uploading a .cda file i get "can not upload this type of file" but when i upload a txt or pdf i get a blank screen so im thinking the script below needs looking at.
I know if it was js it would need return true at the end to let the form be submitted but anyway back later.


<script type="text/javascript">
	$(function() {		
		jQuery.validator.addMethod("accept", function(value, element, param) {
  return value.match(new RegExp("." + param + "$"));
});

		$("#apply").validate({
			submitHandler: function(form) {
				var options = { 
					success:function(){
						$('.sending').hide(function(){$('#apply').hide(function(){$('.success').fadeIn();});});
					}
				};
				$(form).ajaxSubmit(options);
			},
			iframe: true,
				rules: {
					email: {
						email: true,
						required: true
					},
					confirmemail: {
						email: true,
						required: true
					},
					lname:{
						required:true
					},
					fname:{
						required:true
					},
					address:{
						required:true
					},
					city:{
						required:true
					},
					state:{
						required:true
					},
					country:{

					mobile_phone:{

					other_education:{

					job_title:{

					job_posting_number:{
						required:true

					hear_job:{

					}/*
,
					file: { accept: "(pdf|zip|doc|txt)" }
*/
				}
		});
	});

And please check if you have two files uploaded by me copyright.pdf and key.txt

I tried that code and nothing yet. I just switched the email address, can you try it again.

So you were able to get the form to submit?

Thanks again!

I am on a mac in FF 3.0. The submit buttons acts as if it has return false on it and nothing happens, no URL loading within Firebug console window,.

Attached is my backend to my code if that helps.

Oh i also remove all of the validation script from above during testing and when you put it back it sends the email just does not redirect the page.

Ok so I changed them all back to "file" - I had them all resume, but maybe the file got reverted.

Ryan

Ian Gough🇬🇧

No they were file but i need you to rename them to resume just the two i mentioned above.

So you removed validation -> kept AJAX and it gave you that?

Now with the code it seems like the page is ending, but no action or AJAX call

Thanks again for your help!

Didnt mean to close that that soon! But when i get an attachment. It just adds it to the email. Not as a downloadable attachment. Any ideas? on why it is doing that?

Nice i like it how it works now but that is weird what about if it's pdf?

Weird..it just worked for me. Maybe we fixed it somehow?

I had this line for client side file ext checking:

}/*
,
file: { accept: "(pdf|zip|doc|txt)" }
*/

But that is commented out. In the PHP it allows for PDF.

Yea as the pdf you have file types defined there is probably no need for the client side but in the long run it could save bandwidth as it should check before it even attempts to upload.
