as a matter of fact, i just used that plugin and i had to do a lot of fixing
in order for it to work on jquery 1.2.6
here is the updated code:
jQuery.extend({
createUploadIframe: function(id, uri){
//create frame
var frameId = 'jUploadFrame' + id;
if (window.ActiveXObject) {
var io = document.createElement('<iframe id="' + frameId + '"
name="' + frameId + '" />');
if (typeof uri == 'boolean') {
io.src = 'javascript:false';
}
else
if (typeof uri == 'string') {
io.src = uri;
}
}
else {
var io = document.createElement('iframe');
io.id = frameId;
io.name = frameId;
}
io.style.position = 'absolute';
io.style.top = '-1000px';
io.style.left = '-1000px';
//document.body.appendChild(io);
//var myframe_src = (typeof uri == 'boolean') ? 'javascript:false' :
uri;
// var myframe = '<iframe
style="position:absolute;top:-1000px;left:-1000px" id="' + frameId + '"
name="' + frameId + '" src="' + myframe_src + '"></iframe>';
$('body').append(io);
return io;
},
createUploadForm: function(id, fileElementId){
//create form
var formId = 'jUploadForm' + id;
var fileId = 'jUploadFile' + id;
var form = $('<form action="" method="POST" name="' + formId + '"
id="' + formId + '" enctype="multipart/form-data"></form>');
var oldElement = $('#' + fileElementId);
var newElement = $(oldElement).clone();
$(oldElement).attr('id', fileId);
$(oldElement).before(newElement);
$(oldElement).appendTo(form);
//set attributes
$(form).css('position', 'absolute');
$(form).css('top', '-1200px');
$(form).css('left', '-1200px');
$(form).appendTo('body');
return form;
},
ajaxFileUpload: function(s){
// TODO introduce global settings, allowing the client to modify
them for all requests, not only timeout
s = jQuery.extend({}, jQuery.ajaxSettings, s);
var id = new Date().getTime();
var form = jQuery.createUploadForm(id, s.fileElementId);
var io = jQuery.createUploadIframe(id, s.secureuri);
var frameId = 'jUploadFrame' + id;
var formId = 'jUploadForm' + id;
// Watch for a new set of requests
if (s.global && !jQuery.active++) {
jQuery.event.trigger("ajaxStart");
}
var requestDone = false;
// Create the request object
var xml = {};
if (s.global)
jQuery.event.trigger("ajaxSend", [xml, s]);
// Wait for a response to come back
var uploadCallback = function(isTimeout){
var io = document.getElementById(frameId);
try {
if (io.contentWindow) {
xml.responseText = io.contentWindow.document.body ?
io.contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML : null;
xml.responseXML = io.contentWindow.document.XMLDocument
? io.contentWindow.document.XMLDocument : io.contentWindow.document;
}
else
if (io.contentDocument) {
xml.responseText = io.contentDocument.document.body
? io.contentDocument.document.body.innerHTML : null;
xml.responseXML =
io.contentDocument.document.XMLDocument ?
io.contentDocument.document.XMLDocument : io.contentDocument.document;
}
}
catch (e) {
jQuery.handleError(s, xml, null, e);
}
if (xml || isTimeout == "timeout") {
requestDone = true;
var status;
try {
status = isTimeout != "timeout" ? "success" : "error";
// Make sure that the request was successful or
notmodified
if (status != "error") {
// process the data (runs the xml through httpData
regardless of callback)
var data = jQuery.uploadHttpData(xml, s.dataType);
// If a local callback was specified, fire it and
pass it the data
if (s.success)
s.success(data, status);
// Fire the global callback
if (s.global)
jQuery.event.trigger("ajaxSuccess", [xml, s]);
}
else
jQuery.handleError(s, xml, status);
}
catch (e) {
status = "error";
jQuery.handleError(s, xml, status, e);
}
// The request was completed
if (s.global)
jQuery.event.trigger("ajaxComplete", [xml, s]);
// Handle the global AJAX counter
if (s.global && !--jQuery.active)
jQuery.event.trigger("ajaxStop");
// Process result
if (s.complete)
s.complete(xml, status);
jQuery(io).unbind();
setTimeout(function(){
try {
$(io).remove();
$(form).remove();
}
catch (e) {
jQuery.handleError(s, xml, null, e);
}
}, 100);
xml = null;
}
}
// Timeout checker
if (s.timeout > 0) {
setTimeout(function(){
// Check to see if the request is still happening
if (!requestDone)
uploadCallback("timeout");
}, s.timeout);
}
try {
// var io = $('#' + frameId);
var form = $('#' + formId);
$(form).attr('action', s.url);
$(form).attr('method', 'POST');
$(form).attr('target', frameId);
if (form.encoding) {
form.encoding = 'multipart/form-data';
}
else {
form.enctype = 'multipart/form-data';
}
$(form).submit();
}
catch (e) {
jQuery.handleError(s, xml, null, e);
}
if (window.attachEvent) {
document.getElementById(frameId).attachEvent('onload',
uploadCallback);
}
else {
document.getElementById(frameId).addEventListener('load',
uploadCallback, false);
}
return {
abort: function(){
}
};
},
uploadHttpData: function(r, type){
var data = !type;
data = (type == "xml" || data) ? r.responseXML : r.responseText;
// If the type is "script", eval it in global context
if (type == "script") {
jQuery.globalEval(data);
}
// Get the JavaScript object, if JSON is used.
if (type == "json") {
eval("data = " + data);
}
// evaluate scripts within html
if (type == "html") {
// jQuery("<div>").html(data).evalScripts();
//jQuery("<div>").html(data);
}
//alert($('param',
data).each(function(){alert($(this).attr('value'));}));
return data;
}
});
