Problem with Uploads in Google Chrome Can't Post
Hello,

I'm experiencing an issue with uploads in Google Chrome.

After selecting a new photo(s) for upload, the progress bar(s) begin and the image succesfully uploads to the server. Then, I'm prompted with the option to add the Title/Caption fields or whatever info fields we've setup.

Unfortunately, in Chrome only, the info field boxes do NOT accept input. I can move the cursor to any of the fields, but all keystrokes are ignored. I've tested this with a single upload and multiple uploads and the same thing happens.

If I proceed to save the list as-is (no info field content) and then save the record the upload field is in, I can go back and "modify" that record, click on the image(s) and add the Title/Caption/Info details succesfully. Everything saves correctly then.

Clearly I'm just trying to eliminate these extra steps for our clients. Is there a fix for this?

This has happened to e on more than one computer, and also to a client on their computer. I'm using Chrome 15.0.874.106 on OSX Lion.

Thanks in advance for any advice or direction you can offer.

- Dennis

Hi Dennis,

We took a look into this and we are able to re-create this error locally. We continue working on this and should have a solution for a future release. So far, it only seems to occur when using a Mac OS in combination with Chrome. For now, I would recommend using another browser such as firefox.

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. We will keep you up to date.

Thanks

Hi Dennis

Thanks for hanging on!

I've been testing this out for you on my mac here and I think I know what's going on. Basically, the problem is actually a bug in Chrome that hasn't been fixed yet. I have a work around though :).

Open up this file:

/lib/menus/default/uploadModify.php

and replace:

<script type="text/javascript">
window.focus();
</script>

with

<script type="text/javascript">
//window.focus();
</script>

If your editor has line numbers, the code you are looking for is on line 30.

That comments out the line and will get things going again. I've tested the solution in FireFox, Chrome and Safari on my mac.

Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Thanks Ross. I found this post searching for something else.
I will tell you that you can actually start typing in the field if you click outside the modal at first then click in the Input field.
Or believe or not, copy/paste works immediately no need to click in then out.
I'll borrow that code though as I've had that issue for awhile - thanks!
