.pdf uploads work but .doc uploads don't?
This might be a quick one.
I've setup a form to allow the user to upload either a .pdf or a .doc file only. I've using the default filetypes.ini file, not made any changes to that.
Here's the template code I'm using:
<perch:input type="file" id="cv" label="CV" accept="pdf doc" class="required" required="true" />
The form accepts a .pdf upload, but not a .doc upload.
Any ideas why?
Are
pdfanddocdefined as groups in yourfiletypes.inifile?Hi Drew
I'm using the default
filetypes.inisupplied with Perch.PDF is in the
filetypes.inifileHow do I add a .doc file? Would it just be:
Might be
application/mswordbut it would depend on the file.Hmmm...
application/mswordis in the defaultfiletypes.inifileThe file is just a Microsoft word .doc
Anything else I could try?
It's in the group
officethough, and you're not using that group in your tag.Ah, so when I write
within
perch:input,pdfanddocaregroups.A list of accepted file types must be added to a group - is that right?
Ok, great. Are you sure this file identifies as
application/msword?Not sure, how would I find out how a file identifies itself?
I'll have time after lunch today to add this to the
filetypes.inifile. Hope it works... :)Hi Drew
That worked a treat.
Thanks again!
