Hi All,

Uploaded pdf files using;

Controller




public function uploadMultifile ($model,$attr,$path)

            {

                if($sfile=CUploadedFile::getInstances($model, $attr)){

                  foreach ($sfile as $i=>$file){  

                     $formatName=time().$i.'.'.$file->getExtensionName();

                     $file->saveAs(Yii::app()->basePath .DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'..'. $path.$formatName);

                     $ffile[$i]=$formatName;

                     }

                    return ($ffile);

                 }

             }


public function actionCreate()

	{

		$model=new Scaffold;

                $model->date_erected = date('Y-m-d');


		// Uncomment the following line if AJAX validation is needed

		// $this->performAjaxValidation($model);


		if(isset($_POST['Scaffold']))

		{

			$model->attributes=$_POST['Scaffold'];

                            if($filez=$this->uploadMultifile($model,'material_list','/uploads/materials/'))

                                {

                                $model->material_list=implode(",", $filez);

                                }

			if($model->save())

				$this->redirect(array('view','id'=>$model->id));

		}


		$this->render('create',array(

			'model'=>$model,

		));

	}

Model

                                'maxSize'=>1024 * 1024 * 3, // 3MB

                                'tooLarge'=>'The file was larger than 3MB. Please upload a smaller file.',

                                'allowEmpty' => true),			

		);

	}

_form view




<div class="row">

                <?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'material_list'); ?>

                <?php  $this->widget('CMultiFileUpload',

                    array(

                         'model' => $model,

                         'attribute' => 'material_list',

Hi you can set the oncomplete event after uplaod iamge




'onComplete' => "js:function(id, fileName, responseJSON){

            jQuery('.qq-upload-list').html('');

            // alert(responseJSON);

            var filename = responseJSON['filename'];

            var success = responseJSON['success'];

           if(success == true) {

             

                jQuery('#displayvenuefloorimage1').html('<a target=\'_blank\' class=\'mleft15 blue\' href=" . Yii::app()->baseUrl . '/upload/venue_floor/' . "'+filename+'>View Floor Plan</a><div class=\'deleteImage ptop0 active float_r\'><img onclick=\'removeVenueFloor(\"'+filename+'\");\' src=" . Yii::app()->baseUrl . "/images/delete_image.png alt=\'Remove image\'></div>');

                

                $('#displayvenuefloorimage1 a').css('text-decoration', 'underline');

                

            }else{

           

            }

        }",

and remove the folder you want to use unlink function

for e.g





$folder = YiiBase::getPathOfAlias('webroot') . '/upload/event/' . $_POST['imagename'];

if (file_exists($folder) && $_POST['imagename'] != "") {

  @unlink($folder);

  @unlink(YiiBase::getPathOfAlias('webroot') . '/upload/event/' . $_POST['imagename']);

}

Hi Maggie Q,

Thanks for your reply but where do I put this codes? I noticed that this is for image, is it applicable for other format? I’m a newbie to yii, php and basically to programming.

What code should I put on ‘material_list’ to display the link?
