File upload/email attachment in IE8

neandorman 08 Apr, 2009
I've attached a backup of the form I'm using. I've also attached a screenshot of the debug code that was generated, which doesn't appear too helpful as it displays the same as a successful run in another browser.

The problem I'm running into, I THINK I have narrowed down to IE8. I can't replicate in Chrome or Firefox or Safari (windows or mac). The problem is that when a file is uploaded it goes nowhere, gives no error message, and isn't attached to the email that is sent. It's just not there (not present in uploads folder, either).

A couple of days ago I was fixing the allowed file types, as you will see in the attached backup and now I'm at a loss.

I searched around at length and couldn't find any helpful tidbits, but that doesn't mean they aren't here already. If this is a question/issue that has already been addressed, please don't put much energy into a response to this post - just point me in the right direction

Hi neandorman,

Sorry, I don't have IE8 installed to check - still testing in IE7 at the moment.

Do you have enctype="multipart/form-data" in the Form Tag Attachment box on the General Tab?

Which version of ChronOForms are you using (the more recent releases show the $_FILES array in the debug info)?

Hey Bob!

It's an honor to receive a response from you. I've been lurking for quite a while and I've read many of your posts - thank you! The time you spend in this forum adds considerable value to this product.

I didn't have enctype="multipart/form-data" in the place you mentioned. I inserted it and it appears to have fixed the issue.

I am using 3.0 STABLE and I just downloaded the latest release. Can't believe I missed that coming out. Now I'm off to install it.

Thank you again, Bob
