[jira] [Commented] (TAP5-638) Support for uploading files using AJAX

["Taha Hafeez (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-638?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13055236#comment-13055236 ] 

Taha Hafeez commented on TAP5-638:
----------------------------------

The support for ajax based upload(http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest2/#xmlhttprequestupload) is new and is only supported by a few browsers. This feature requires a separate ajax request to the server and can't be part of the form submission. Also there has to be a fallback to iframe based form submission in case the browser does not support this feature. 

I have written an ajax-upload component (https://github.com/tawus/tawus/tree/master/tawus-ajaxupload). If somebody finds it useful, I can convert it into a patch for tapestry-upload module.

> If the upload component is included on a form that does a partial update(has the zone parameter set) the value property isn't updated with the UploadedFile instance.
> So it seems that this component upload doesn't support ajax. It would be great if it was possible to upload a file using AJAX.
