Condition to only accept JPEG FILES

[KAPITYAN]

Hi, is there a way to make a File form element on my data page only accept jpg files? So, if you will upload images or other files it will not be accepted unless it is a jpeg. Is it possible?

Hi, that would be possible using Javascript. You may try this code if this will work for you:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> 
var file = document.getElementById('InsertRecordfoto'); 

file.onchange = function(e){ 
var ext = this.value.match(/\.([^\.]+)$/)[1]; 
switch(ext) 
{ 
case 'jpeg': 
case 'jpg': 

break; 

default: 

alert('Invalid format! We only accept jpeg file. Please try to upload the correct extension.'); 

this.value=''; 
} 
}; 

</SCRIPT>

You may change the field name which is "foto" based on the field that you are using in the table. You can paste that inside your Header and footer.

Hi,

Can you try the input tag on the header of the submission form and paste this code 

<input type="file" name="myImage" accept="image/x-png,image/gif,image/jpeg" />

This would provide a tooltip to the browser that it only accepts JPEG files
