IE 8 Upload issue Error with: 2.3.9.7

When using IE8 I have many users no able to upload and the upload button is not viable.

I have narrowed it down to the following below: (found the error running dev tools in ie with the option show every script error)

Actual Error message:
Message: Expected identifier, string or number
Line: 685
Char: 1803
Code: 0

that error is somewhere in between the below block: (located in the uploaded script block at the bottom of the page)

"<button>", {id:'btnSendctl00_mainContent_ctl01_uploader',text:'Upload', class:'ui-button ui-widget ui-state-default ui-corner-all'});btnSend.appendTo($('#filelistctl00_mainContent_ctl01_uploader'));

 

possibly I have something missing in my skin, but not sure.  Maybe someone else is running into this issue.

 

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the bug report. I was able to reproduce the problem using IE 8 mode in IE 10 and it is now fixed in our source code repository. I'll see what I can do about patching the 2.3.9.7 release in the next few days. I'll post again here when the patch is available.

Best,

Joe

no problem - I am glad you have a fix in place and thanks for looking into this so quickly.  I will keep an eye out for the interim patch post.

Joe, would you recommend that I grab the most recent dev code and upgrade the entire site to today's version or is this a simple script change that I can make?  If so where is the file that I would make the change?

Thanks

Re: IE 8 Upload issue Error with: 2.3.9.7

As long as you are comfortable building and deploying yourself I would always use the latest code (all of it not part of it). Our default branch in the source code repository is always intended to be stable code and if you do find a bug using the latest the turnaround to get a fix in the repository is very quick vs the official packaged release cycle.

I update this site and our demo site quite a few times in between releases myself whenever there is any interesting new code that I want to use. For example I updated this site yesterday so I could use the new FlexCartLink that I implemented recently in WebStore. This allows me to have a cart link configured in my layout.master file to show up at the top of every page. So this site is running the very latest code right now.

I recommend use TortoiseHG to get the latest code though, I do not trust the download links for the latest code that the codeplex site generates. I usually publish to a local folder and then do any cleanup or adjustment of files like Web.config before uploading to production.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Re: IE 8 Upload issue Error with: 2.3.9.7

Joe, I just took the latest code this morning and upgraded the site to get this fix in place.

It looks like IE8 uploads now using only the "select files" button, but all DRAG and DROP functionality for IE 8 and 9 does not work anymore, I did not test 10.

When I drag a file it just gets ignored and no upload button appears.

FireFox drag and drop works fine.

Re: IE 8 Upload issue Error with: 2.3.9.7

That is correct, drag and drop only works in modern html 5 browsers, older browsers have to click to select files.
