Question

I really need someones help with this. Here is my uploadify code:

$('#file_upload').uploadify({
    'swf' : 'assets/js/uploadify.swf',
    'uploader' : 'uploadify.php',
    'method' : 'post',
    'auto' : false,
    'multi' : false,
    'uploadLimit' : 1,
    'buttonText' : 'Select Image',
    'onUploadStart' : function(file) {
        var $recordId = [PASSED RECORD ID HERE];
        $("#file_upload").uploadify("settings", "formData", {'recordId' : $recordId});
    }
});

what I’m trying to do is run this when a button is clicked instead of auto uploading the file. I have a function like below that is called when the button is click.

function updateRecord() {
    $('#file_upload').uploadify('upload');
}

This all works fine but what i need to do is when the updateRecord function is run I need to pass the $recordId through to the upload formData.

Can some please tell me how I can pass the formData from my updateRecord function?

Many thanks

Answer 1

I sorted it, i was able to update the settings before calling the upload method:

function updateRecord() {
    $("#file_upload").uploadify("settings", "formData", {'recordId' : data});
    $('#file_upload').uploadify('upload');
}

Thanks
