HTML5 drag and drop and multiple file upload

I have an HTML form that contains a file input field with multiple file selection and I also have a drag and drop feature that I am working on as well. My question is how to integrate both of these features seamlessly if it is even possible?

Ideally, I would like the user to select their files either through drag'n'drop or through the file dialog box. Once the u开发者_运维百科ser is done selecting their files, click the form submit button to upload.

I guess the main uncertainty that I have is how to bind the files that were dragged and dropped to a file input field for form submission.


I wrote some jQuery code that does just that, tell me if it works for you.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Multiple DnD Uploader</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
    <script type = "text/javascript" src = "../music/jquery.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      $(document).ready(function(){
        $('#drop').change(function(event){
          files = event.target.files;
          $('#drop').css('display', 'none');
          for(var i = 0, len = files.length; i < len; i++) {
            if((files[i].fileName+"").substring((files[i].fileName+"").length-4,(files[i].fileName+"").length)=='.mp3'){
            $.ajax({
              type: "POST",
              url: "uploader.php?id="+i,
              contentType: "multipart/form-data",
              headers: {
                "X-File-Name" : files[i].fileName,
                "X-File-Size" : files[i].fileSize,
                "X-File-Type" : files[i].type
              },
              beforeSend:  function() {
                $('#info').append('<li class="indicator"><span class="label">File Name :</span> '+files[i].fileName+' | <span class="label">Size :</span> ' + files[i].fileSize + ' | <img id="'+i+'" src="loading.gif" /></li>');
              },
              processData: false,
              data: files[i],
              success: function(data){
                $('#'+data).attr('src', 'check.png');
              },error: function(data){
                $('#info').append('Error: ' + data + '<br />');
              }
            });
            }else{
              $('#info').append('Error: Incorrect file type. Looking for .mp3');
            }
          }
        });
      });
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div id="drop">
      <h1>Drop files here</h1>
      <p>To add them as attachments</p>
      <input type="file" multiple="true" id="filesUpload" />
    </div>
    <div id="info">
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

And the PHP file looks like this:

<?php
  $headers = array();
  foreach ($_SERVER as $k => $v){   
    if(substr($k, 0, 5) == "HTTP_"){
      $k = str_replace('_', ' ', substr($k, 5));
      $k = str_replace(' ', '-', ucwords(strtolower($k)));
      $headers[$k] = $v;
    }
  } 
  $file = new stdClass;
  $file->name = basename($headers['X-File-Name']);
  $file->size = $headers['X-File-Size'];
  $file->content = file_get_contents("php://input");
  if(file_put_contents('files/'.$file->name, $file->content))
    echo $_GET['id'];
?>


I'm not entirely sure how you're doing it, so I'll tell you the way I do it and then try to answer your question.

  1. Set up event listeners for dropping and <input>'s change event.
    • for dropping: filesUpload.addEventListener("change", function () {traverseFiles(this.files);}, false);
    • for <input>: dropArea.addEventListener("drop", function (evt) {traverseFiles(evt.dataTransfer.files);}, false);
  2. traverseFiles that you see above is a function that gets a FileList (an array of Files), which are a part of the File API. This function then calls a function uploadFile for each File.
  3. uploadFile sends the File asynchronously via ajax (XMLHttpRequest.send(file)).

Now to answer your question how to bind the dropped files to an input field: you don't, you just do it the other way. You create an API or a wrapper for uploading files and then if the user drops files, you call this wrapper function. If the user clicks on the <input> field, you again call this wrapper (like I did with traverseFiles).

Makes sense? If it doesn't, tell me which part and I'll edit this answer / expand on it.


<input type=file multiple>
<div id='dropzone'>Drop Files Here</div>

onchange and ondrop events shuld bind a function with the variable to get file list.

var files=e.target.files||e.dataTransfer.files

You could use "HTML5-File-Uploader" which purports to do what you need as well as gracefully degrade for older browsers:

https://github.com/gre/HTML5-File-Uploader/wiki

I haven't tried it myself.

Alternatively, you could take a look at this page, which supplies all the code you need to do it yourself:
