Hi All,

I have the following input:

And here is the simple javascript function

$("#btnFile").on('change', function (event, files, label)
{
var lstFiles = $("#btnFile")[0].files;
...
});

The above code works fine with Chrome. It return an array for files that can be manipulated. However, in IE, I can pick only ONE file, and the lstFiles is NULL.

Do you know what is wrong with IE (settings???). Can someone shed a light?

Thanks.

That code is some sort of framework, please ask in the JavaScript Frameworks forum.

Error404

You're almost there. Try the following:

var myFile = $(#btnFile)[0].files[0];

Keep in mind, it's fairly new meaning older browsers may not support it or require a workaround. Same story with JavaScript. If you're not using a HTML5 doctype, it definitely will not work.
