File upload - error message - exit; code

Hi, is there another possibility how to show the error message after uploading file (e.g. file is to small). After this message I get blank page (caused by the exit in the code)...

Thank you, Jan

Hi Jan,

There should be an error message displayed. See line 245 of chronocontact.php

I suspect that the showErrorMessage function hasn't been updated for Joomal 1.5. I'll take a look tomorrow.

Hi, the error is displayed in popup box (it is ok), but after clicking popup box ok, I get the blank page (because of exit), so I added before exit:

$mainframe->redirect(' ... form page ... ', ' ... error message ... ' )

so it works great for me now...

thank you for the reply...

Jan

Hi Jan,

For Joomla 1.5 it might be better to use something like

$mainframe->enqueueMessage( $message, 'error' );
showForm($_POST);

The showform() function is used for the Validation error return but not the Form uploads.

I'll pass the message on to Max.

Hi, yes... I use this:


$mainframe->redirect(' ... form page ... ', ' ... error message ... ' )

because of going back to ChronoForms PLUGIN...(and it works for me)

Jan

Hi Jan,

That makes sense, I hadn't realised that you are using the PlugIn.

:-), sorry for not complete information, sometimes the most important information stays in brain only and will be not written into the forum ...

Hi Jan & Bob,

Can you tell me exactly what line you put the code for plugin redirect?

Thanks, Chuck

file: chronocontact.php
rows: 245 +
after error message and before exit:

$errorMsg = 'some error ...';
$mainframe->redirect($form_uri, $errorMsg);

into your form you must add the info about the form site:
hidden input with name 'form_uri' and paste there the site name

and in file:
chronocontact.php you must get this info:

rows: 190 +

if (!isset($_POST['form_uri'])) {
  $form_uri = 'index.php';
} else {
  $form_uri = $_POST['form_uri'];
}

The code is not copied from the site (I have no access for it now), so it can contain errors (;, (, ), ... )
