Hi All,

FIle upload in IE is not working. Please find below properties from sahi controller of the file field:

outerHTML=<INPUT class=file onchange="setFileNameFromPath(this.value, document.forms[0].filename);" type=file name=fileIndex1>;
clientLeft=1;
all={{[object]}};
all=[object];
maxLength=2147483647;
loop=1;
form={{[object]}};
form=[object];
start=fileopen;
size=20;
type=file;
name=fileIndex1;

After converting the file field to text field using code-

_setSelected(_select("docTypeId_fileIndex1"), "Document");
_call(_file("file").outerHTML=_file("file").outerHTML.replace(/type=file/,"type=text"));
//even tried this:_call(_file("fileIndex1").outerHTML=_file("fileIndex1").outerHTML.replace(/type=?fileIndex1?/, "type=text"));
setValue(_textbox("file"), "D:\\FulfillmentCase.pdf");

but it did not work and the properties after changing it to text field :

outerHTML=<INPUT class=file onchange="setFileNameFromPath(this.value, document.forms[0].filename);" value=D:\\FulfillmentCase.pdf name=fileIndex1>;
clientLeft=2;
all={{[object]}};
all=[object];
value=D:\FulfillmentCase.pdf;
type=text;
name=fileIndex1;

But same in other browsers are working with :_call(_file("fileIndex1").type="text");

Please help with any workarounds for this, not able to find out if its problem related to the way our functionality is designed or any change needed with sahi.

Regards,
Sushil

    Hi,

    try this
    
_setFile(_file("SourceFileUpload"), "D:/txtfile.txt");
   // Change the "type" attribute of file field
if (_isIE()){
	_call(_file("SourceFileUpload").outerHTML = _file("SourceFileUpload").outerHTML.replace(/type=file/, "type=text"));
}else{
	_call(_file("SourceFileUpload").type = "text");
}
	// Set the value into the textbox
_setValue(_textbox("SourceFileUpload"), "D:/txtfile.txt");
