so im still not comfortable enough with my coding to start putting stuff on forge, but my final take on on this is here -
http://stickandlogdesigns.com/downloads/beta/UploadHandler.js another reason not to put in on forge is that arian's looks nicer... mine, does a couple more things (checks for required fields, validates emails, adds a cover over the form to give feed back [succes,error,add a animated loader ...] to the user) but it would probably make more sense to start with arian´s and handle those types of things outside. for anyone glancing through this just wanting a quick answer on how to do it themselves ... the entirety of the iframe ajax business came down to about 6 lines of code .... after the user submits the form, first stop the event and then var ifrm = new Element("iframe", {src:"javascript:false",name:"iframe"}) document.body.grab(ifrm) var hiddenForm = this.form.clone() ifrm.grab(hiddenForm) ifrm.setStyle("display","none") hiddenForm.set("target","iframe") ... hiddenForm.submit() listen for the iframe to fire "load". the sever-side response then comes is then = ifrm.contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML oh and sandy - that is probably the best way to hold the i pad, sure, but i found this to be a much more complete howto http://techland.com/2010/05/07/ipadshred/ On Jun 27, 7:19 pm, Sanford Whiteman <[email protected]> wrote: > > There's now way to do file uploads in Safari on iPads and iPhones as > > there is no form file widget. > > You're holding it wrong.
