dojo.io.iframe.send not in api docs (and file upload in general)

Submitted by dtynan on Wed, 05/14/2008 - 02:36.

There seems to be a lot of confusion about the right way to do file upload forms (especially w/extra fields). If I'm reading things correctly, I think dojo.io.iframe.send() is the proper function .... maybe I missed it, but I can't seem to find that in the API docs?

Just a thought ... the whole topic of 'file upload' seems like a good candidate for the FAQ, even if it's just pointers to existing posts of the latest/best way to do it.

Thanks,
Dylan Tynan

That is weird,

That is weird, dojo.io.iframe.send() does not show up in the API docs. I filed a bug for it:
http://trac.dojotoolkit.org/ticket/6748

There is some documentation about it, but unfortunately it is buried under the XMLHttpRequest topic:
http://dojotoolkit.org/book/dojo-book-0-9/part-3-programmatic-dijit-and-...

cool, thanks...

I appreciate it ... I would have opened the bug to save ya the trouble, but it was so odd I figured I must be mistaken :)

Thanks!
Dylan

I would not be surprised...

...if the reason why it's not showing has to do with the setSrc function; you'll notice that the API tool also miffs up .doc().

We might try rearranging the functions and running the doc tool to see if that's it. I have a sneaking suspicion that it's related to the try...catch statement but pottedmeat would have a better idea.
