Re: [galaxy-dev] Check file before uploading

[galaxy-dev] Check file before uploading

2014-04-07 Thread Neil.Burdett
Hi When selecting a file or after clicking on Execute to upload a file is it possible to check the file is appropriate i.e. by checking file extension etc, before the file is actually uploaded and put into the database? So the user can't upload the wrong file/format Thanks Neil Neil
