Hi Rob, thanks for responding.
1. Yes, I mean the text that appears next to the input.
2. The REAL question is how can I change the Label (text ON a button)
3. I am not toggling between Ajax and Normal. I did switch until I understood what each did but have for a while settled on Normal as Ajax takes up too much space and looks a little messy for what I need now. In addition I need to limit them to one document per fileupload field anyway.
4. The real reason is I have prepared a little workaround to "cancel" the fileupload. I WAS told that that does not exist (yet) and I have to live with that and accept that.
Part of the workaround is the requirement to actually show the user in the edit screen that a fileupload actually exist already. At one stage there was and "array" next to the label and below that the "Select File". Felixkat in one of my screens where I tried to explain this indicated that instead of the "array" there should actually have been the filename which would have made it clear that a file already exist for that object.
In between one of the myriad of github upgrades even the array now disapeared and all that remains is the "Select file bit".
I have 5 different fileuploads on the one table and if the user does not upload them in one go, (which is quite/very possible,as they will upload them as they source and convert/scan the documents to pdf) they need to see which ones they have already uploaded. I did understand and accept the security issue and am not insisiting/asking for anything that has been justified for me)
I do not want to repeat my whole story but I have added a "Cancel Button" for which I have already developed some basic php update query code to blank out the field. This will only work If I can provide information for the user what has(or not) been uploaded so far and the system as it is in 440 does not show that in an edit screen). I have asked for the php syntax to delete the pysical file as well, but that is only a question that will help me do something new (for me) and if push comes to shove I will use the generic info I have found on other sites to try something. I just thought by asking I could maybe play it a little bit safe as all the caveats around file deletion syntax mentions you can potentially delete the whole folder by mistake. however THAT syntax I accept is stricly speaking not part of the service you provide for my E50 and I accept that as well but thought that someone will share their knowledge with me as the field already contains the folder and file information and if I read that I could then hopefully delete the file as well. I will hunt until I figure that out and will most certainly not hold it against you If my development skills is not up to scratch. (yet). I will build up the courage to put that in (after having backed up my system)
I do believe sincerely though and upon reflection think that 70-80% of my issues relates to bugs issues in the system
Being a developer myself and being in charge of a bunch of developers (mostly SAP ABAP and VB/VBA automation stuff) I do understand that there is always a risk that if you touch code that it could potentially affect other things.
HOWEVER this instability IS making my life very difficult as in the beginning I believed it was me not understanding the coding but in fact trying to find answers in very thin documentation is affecting my productivity ...
Just before you think I am just griping I want to say that FABRIK is a very exciting product and is opening up huge possibilities for me and I want to in the same breath congratulate you for a visionary product.
JUST SAYING .....
If the support required moves to custom stuff and you are willing to provide some advise then I have no problem in moving to silver just to get this job done.
