What is this?

The Multiple File Upload Plugin (jQuery.MultiFile) is a non-obstrusive plugin for the jQuery Javascript library that helps users easily select multiple files for upload quickly and easily whilst also providing some basic validation functionality to help developers idenfity simple errors, without having to submit the form (ie.: upload files).

How do I use it?

Just add the multi class to your file input element.

<input type="file" class="multi"/>

»

Use the maxlength property if you want to limit the number of files selected

<input type="file" class="multi" maxlength="2"/>

»

Use the accept property if you only want files of a certain extension to be selected (separate valid extensions with a "|").

<input type="file" class="multi" accept="gif|jpg"/>

»

PS.: Server-side validation is always required.

Using HTML

Example 1 class="multi" maxlength="2" Limit: 2 files. Allowed extensions: any.

Example 2 class="multi" accept="gif|jpg" Limit: no limit. Allowed extensions: gif and jpg.

Example 3 class="multi" accept="gif|jpg" maxlength="3" Limit: 3 files Allowed extensions: gif, jpg. Note that server-side validation is always required

---

Using class property

Example 4 class="multi max-2" Limit: 2 files. Allowed extensions: any.

Example 5 class="multi accept-gif|jpg" Limit: no limit. Allowed extensions: gif, jpg.

Example 6 class="multi max-3 accept-gif|jpg" Limit: 3 files Allowed extensions: gif, jpg. Note that server-side validation is always required

---

Moving the file list

Example 7 This example populates the file list in a custom element $(function(){ // wait for document to load $('#T7').MultiFile({ list: '#T7-list' }); });

This is div#T7-list - selected files will be populated here...

---

Customising the file list

Example 8 A Use a custom 'remove' image in the file list $(function(){ // wait for document to load $('#T8A').MultiFile({ STRING: { remove: '<img src="http://www.fyneworks.com/@/bin.gif" height="16" width="16" alt="x"/>' } }); });

Example 8 B Customising all list content $(function(){ // wait for document to load $('#T8B').MultiFile({ STRING: { file: '<em title="Click to remove" onclick="$(this).parent().prev().click()">$file</em>', remove: '<img src="http://www.fyneworks.com/@/bin.gif" height="16" width="16" alt="x"/>' } }); });

---

Using events

Example 9 The events available are: onFileAppend, afterFileAppend, onFileSelect, afterFileSelect, onFileRemove, afterFileRemove The arguments passed on to each event handler are: element: file element which triggered the event value: the value of the element in question master_element: the original element containing all relevant settings $(function(){ // wait for document to load $('#T9').MultiFile({ onFileRemove: function(element, value, master_element){ $('#F9-Log').append('<li>onFileRemove - '+value+'</li>') }, afterFileRemove: function(element, value, master_element){ $('#F9-Log').append('<li>afterFileRemove - '+value+'</li>') }, onFileAppend: function(element, value, master_element){ $('#F9-Log').append('<li>onFileAppend - '+value+'</li>') }, afterFileAppend: function(element, value, master_element){ $('#F9-Log').append('<li>afterFileAppend - '+value+'</li>') }, onFileSelect: function(element, value, master_element){ $('#F9-Log').append('<li>onFileSelect - '+value+'</li>') }, afterFileSelect: function(element, value, master_element){ $('#F9-Log').append('<li>afterFileSelect - '+value+'</li>') } }); });

This is div#F9-Log - selected files will be populated here...

---

Advanced Usage

Using your own selectors

$(function(){ // wait for document to load
$('#MyFileUpload').MultiFile();
});

Setting limit via script

$(function(){ // wait for document to load
$('#MyFileUpload').MultiFile(5 /*limit will be set to 5*/);
});

Advanced configuration

$(function(){ // wait for document to load
$('#MyCoolFileUpload').MultiFile({
max: 5,
accept: 'gif|jpg|png|bmp|swf'
});
});

Customising visible strings for multi-lingual support

$(function(){ // wait for document to load
$('#PortugueseFileUpload').MultiFile({
STRING: {
remove:'Remover',
selected:'Selecionado: $file',
denied:'Invalido arquivo de tipo $ext!'
}
});
});

Multi-lingual support

The plugin doesn't have any additional languages built-in, but it's very easy to customise the messages to any language of your choosing. See the examples below...

NB.: This example has been configured to accept gif/pg files only in order to demonstrate the error messages.

Method 1: Using class property (require MetaData plugin)

<input type="file" class="multi
{accept:'gif|jpg', max:3, STRING:{
remove:'Remover',
selected:'Selecionado: $file',
denied:'Invalido arquivo de tipo $ext!',
duplicate:'Arquivo ja selecionado:\n$file!'
}}" />

Method 2: Programatically by ID (ONE element only, does not require MetaData plugin)

<input type="file" id="PortugueseFileUpload" />

$(function(){
$('#PortugueseFileUpload').MultiFile({
accept:'gif|jpg', max:3, STRING: {
remove:'Remover',
selected:'Selecionado: $file',
denied:'Invalido arquivo de tipo $ext!',
duplicate:'Arquivo ja selecionado:\n$file!'
}
});
});

Method 3: Programatically (n elements, does not require MetaData plugin)

See this feature request for details

<input type="file" class="multi-pt" />
<input type="file" class="multi-pt" />
<input type="file" class="multi-pt" />

$(function(){
$('.multi-pt').MultiFile({
accept:'gif|jpg', max:3, STRING: {
remove:'Remover',
selected:'Selecionado: $file',
denied:'Invalido arquivo de tipo $ext!',
duplicate:'Arquivo ja selecionado:\n$file!'
}
});
});

Can this plugin upload files?

No, this jQuery plugin does not upload files

Javascript is a client side language and cannot upload files - this plugin will only go as far as helping the user select the files to upload and assisting in the validation process by warning the user of common mistakes before server-side validation takes place. When the form is submitted, it's up to you to have a server-side script that will actually upload the files.

Please do not email me asking how to do this!!! There is plenty of information out there and you can easily find it on Google. But because I'm such a nice guy, I've put a quick list of the best links here:

ASP users

FreeASPUpload - Free, easy to use and no component required. This is my favourite.
Pure ASP File Upload by Jacob Gilley
File Upload via ASP (Pure ASP Solution, no .DLL)

PHP users

See File Upload Tutorials from W3CSchools, About.com, Tizag

NOTICE TO PHP USERS: The plugin's default behaviour generates an array of elements (sharing the same name). In order for this array to be properly identified and handled in PHP, you have add "[]" to name of your element.
eg.:

<input type="file" name="MyStuff[]"...

Having problems?

1. Make sure your form has method=POST and enctype=multipart/form-data

2. Are you using valid (x)HTML? Invalid markup can stop the form from being submitted altogether

3. Are you using the correct element names as required/expected by your server-side script?

4. Have you tried uploading a single file without using the plugin? Makes sure this works before submitting a bug report

I promise I can upload my own files. What do I need to know?

You should know that the plugin works by hiding elements with a selected file and creating new empty elements. This means when submitting the form, there will always be an empty item at the end of the list of files. Actually, that would have been a problem but this plugin takes care of disabling all dummy empty file inputs for you before the form gets submitted - be it via ajax or natively. So this is good to know, but it's not something you need to worry about.

However, if you are submitting the form programmatically via javascript, you must call this before submitting the form....

$.fn.MultiFile.disableEmpty(); // before submiting the form

And if you're doing things the ajax way, you should call this when you're done to re-enable the dummy element:

$.fn.MultiFile.reEnableEmpty(); // after submiting the form

Ajax

You may use the jQuery Form Plugin to submit the form via ajax.

How do I reset the control?

To reset the file selections, just make the following call:

$('input:file').MultiFile('reset')
