Portal Form ChooseFiles

Posted on by R89 135

Hi

I have a portal form that allows the end users to attach files. When the files are picked from the C drive by the end user it shows 2 files or 3 files next to the button Choose Files.

Is there a way to show the names of the files in a sub-grid above the Choose Files button so that the end user is aware of what is attached ? 

Thanks for your suggestions.

Thanks

    Hi, Its not OOB functionality. If you Edit entity (not creation) - you can add Notes section With Entity Form Metadata  configuration, which allow you to add multiple files with Notes.

    If you are ok with current approach, you can add simple Javascript to "Custom Javascript" Section of the form

    $(document).ready(function() {

$("#AttachFile").change(function(){ 
var addstring = "";
var files = $("#AttachFile")[0].files;
for (let i=0;i<files.length;i++) {addstring+=files[i].name+"; ";}

if (addstring) $("#AttachFileLabel").text("Selected: "+addstring);
  else $("#AttachFileLabel").text("Attach multiple files:");
});  
  
});


    I have tested it on Contact-Us default entity form with enabled attachment upload.

    You can customize it in more acceptable UI for your case.
