Synopsis:

The ajax_upload module adds a file upload widget to Xataface that uses AJAX.

Features:

• Adds the ajax_upload widget type for use in a Xataface application.
• Will work with any container field (i.e. file upload fields where the files are stored on the file system).
• AJAX uploading of files.
• Will work inside grid widget (so you can now have unlimited file uploads to a form).
• LightBox preview of images.
• Progress bar to track upload progress.
• Delete or replace files in field.

Requirements:

• Xataface 2.0 or higher

Installation:

1. Copy the ajax_upload directory into the modules directory of either your application or Xataface.

2. Add the following to the _modules section of your conf.ini file:

   modules_ajax_upload=modules/ajax_upload/ajax_upload.php

Usage:

This module provides the ajax_upload widget type that can be used in place of the file widget. E.g. If you have a field that you used to use for file uploads with configuration like:

[myfield]
	Type=container

You can change it to use the ajax_upload widget by adding:

widget:type=ajax_upload

to the fields.ini configuration. E.g.

[myfield]
	Type=container
	widget:type=ajax_upload
	
	

Limitations:

• Does not work on BLOB fields yet. Only container fields.
