V5 two simple questions

Paolo.Ferlini 08 Jul, 2014
Hi all,
i've two questions about the new version of Chronoform & Chronoconnectivity.

I'm moving from V4 to V5 and i'm experienced some differences ( obvious 😀 ).
The first one is the absence of "File Upload" action from GH. I'm trying to use the default component but where can i specify the file name ? or how can i find it so i can pass the value as a parameter for my ajax script ?

The second question is for Chronoconnectivity. I would like to edit a table with several field with the type "longtext". in the edit action i would like to treat its in the wysiwyg editor . How can i do that ?

Thanks a lot

Hi Paolo,

First, there is no big need o move from v4 to v5 unless you need some of the new features, v4 is still fine and we support it!

You need to find the file name after it has been uploaded ? please clarify!

You can set the textarea to an editor, there is an option for this in the textarea settings!

Did you try ChronoMyAdmin for managing your Joomla database tables ?

Thanks for your response. I would like to migrate from V4 to V5 for benefit of the enhancement and as occasion to rewrite and clean up all the forms i already have on my site.

Secondly, the flow for the file name is : the user upload the file, at the successfully end of the transfer, the form start an ajax process on the server side that receive the file name and process it.

Is for this reason that i need to know the storing file name.

The AJAX is triggered after the form is submitted ? then this is not AJAX, you just use the submitted field name ?

Please try to add a debugger action to the end of the "on submit" event and check the Files and data arrays, they have all info about the uploaded file.
