Hallo,
i currently have a project, where i need a very userfriendly (and visually not Livelink like) user interface to upload (multiple) files (with Attributs) to livelink.
It's a Form with multiple related Attributes and (may be multiple) files to upload. (I fetch the <option> values with Webreports returning JSON Objects and do a lot of thiings by jQuery on client side (Mulit Step Form with different Steps based on selections, ...). At the end i have all Attributs and Files i have to upload to given folders.
It works fine in Firefox, but i could not yet get it working In Internet Explorer.
What i do basically (with AJAX):
a) Upload the first File (by calling func=ll&objAction=create2.... in a IFrame, because it's not yet possible to upload Files by AJAX - my favorite would be to use http://jquery.malsup.com/form/#file-upload)
b) get the ID of the just uploaded File (by Webreport / Livereport)
c) update the Atributs of this ID (by Webreport)
d) update the Privileges of this ID (by Webreport)
e) uploading the second file like a)
f) the same as b)...d)
In Firefox it works fine and the user get the feedback wha'ts currently done by Livelink and when it's successfully finished.
In IE i have the Problem, that it loads in step a) a new page (the nextURL - Page) in the Top-Window. (and than of course it does not continue with b), c), ...
Does anyone has an idea to get this working (or to implement another way to do the same?)
I had yet a look at create2 and Action_create2 from webnode, but at this time, im too late to orphan and change it, so that i do not have the redirect to /html/redirectmeta.html where the nextURL - link is used.
