[CLOSED] IE11 Fileupload & DirectEvent

Hi,

Combining a form file upload with a directevent does not work in IE11 (firefox and chrome doesn't have this issue) as the response opens a save json file download box. The EXTJS documentation (http://docs.sencha.com/extjs/5.0/5.0...thod-hasUpload) describes that the reponse should be a text/plain contenttype.

The contenttype is set to application/json in the directresult method WriteContent.

How can I fix the fileupload issue?

Thanks,

Sander

Hello @thesvr!

Can you provide us with a simplified test case reproducing the issue so we can advice you about how to deal with the problem?

Controller

Code:

---

    public class TestController : Controller
    {
        // GET: Test
        public ActionResult Index()
        {
            return View();
        }


        public ActionResult TestAction()
        {
            X.Msg.Alert("Error", "Test").Show();
            return this.Direct();
        }
    }

---

View

Code:

---

@(
 Html.X().FormPanel()
    .Region(Region.Center)
            .Items(AddForm =>
            {
                AddForm.Add(
    Html.X().FileUploadField()
    .ItemID("file")
    .Name("file")
    .Width(500)
    .FieldLabel("Select file")
    .LabelAlign(LabelAlign.Top)
    );
            }
)

.Buttons(AddButtons =>
            {
                AddButtons.Add(
                    Html.X().Button()
                    .Text("Start") 
                    .FormBind(true)
                    .DirectEvents(directEvents =>
                    {
                        directEvents.Click.Url = Url.Action("TestAction");
                        directEvents.Click.FormID = "form1";
                        directEvents.Click.Method = HttpMethod.POST;
                        directEvents.Click.Timeout = 6000000;
                        directEvents.Click.IsUpload = true;
                    }
                    )
                );
            }
            )
               
)

Message box shows in Chrome, in IE11 i get a window to download a JSON file.

I found the solution.

Instead of

Code:

---

return this.Direct();

---

I should set IsUpload parameter using:

Code:

---

            DirectResult result = new DirectResult();
            result.IsUpload = true;
            return result;

---

Alright @thesvr! Glad you could figure it out and thanks for sharing the outcome!

This 'isUpload' bit is really somewhat confusing but not something can be (at least feasibly) helped, unfortunately.
