Is there any way to interact with with attachments field.


For example

can you check if the attachments fields is null?

can you read the file name of the attachment?

can you prevent the attachments from disappearing when someone fails a field requirement?


just wondering.


thanks

Yes, you can control the Attachments field via JavaScript.

can you check if the attachments fields is null?
Yes, you can retrieve the attachments table and check whether it contains rows or not via JavaScript

can you read the file name of the attachment?
Yes

can you prevent the attachments from disappearing when someone fails a field requirement?
Unfortunately, not. Files are lost after postback if they were not loaded to the server.

Please, use the code below:

Code: Select all

//first attachment
var filename1 = $('#idAttachmentsTable tr td.ms-vb').eq(0).text();

//second attachment
var filename2 = $('#idAttachmentsTable tr td.ms-vb').eq(1).text();
