Re: [web2py] Re: Multiple submit not working on component
Thank you! Importantly, although it is very convenient to have these values serialized, it is simple to get around this jQuery imposed limitation (bug).

jquery serialize also does not support type=file. If you have a way to get around these, please let me know. On Aug 24, 5:35 am, Miguel Lopes mig.e.lo...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you!

I've researched this a bit. Although I have not found an authoritarive source, the problem is that Javascript cannot access files on the desktop, the browser must do it. Thus, not supporting inout type=file is not a jQuery problem. It is possible to code around this, namely using iframe (any other?). Someone more knowledgable may confirm this. Some interesting solutions are (untested): http://valums.com/ajax-upload/- a dedicated javascript script library http://trentrichardson.com/2009/06/05/meet-jquery-iframer/- a jQuery plugin http://www.webtoolkit.info/ajax-file-upload.html - a 1Kb Javascript file Anyone has experience with these or other solutions?

I think this is a bug in the web2py in the form processing system. I will fix it tonight.
