I'm not looking for a file uploader but just to handle the file input field on form submission using RestContour. It works fine when using the pure Contour form (add the path to the file - stored in Umbraco file system - to the field) but it remains empty through RestContour.
I've been playing around and can't seem to get any uploading working either.
From what i can tell the upload fields get stripped out from the query string when you submit the form by the serialize() jquery method in buildFormValidator(). But you can add the upload's value to the url manually which it sends the filename ok but not the actual file.
When i'm looking at a pure contour email with an upload field it uploads a file to a guid-named folder in /umbraco/plugins/contour/files.
Am i right to think that this hasn't been implemented yet? Or is there something that i might be doing wrong.
I am also having an issue with Contour upload field not working (not sure if this is worthy of its own thread).
Once "Choose File" has been clicked, and a file (of any type) is selected, then click Open/OK : the resulting message is the record value "is not valid".
I believe (but cannot verify) this is either because
1) there is a super strict validation on the types of files Permitted to upload - where can I alter this?
2) there is something preventing the actual upload process of the file to occur - a mystery to me thus far.
3) there is no valid place to store the file. - where can I specify this?
I've scoured forums/net for hints or ideas and cannot find any clues. Any ideas kind folk?
Cheers,
Adam
(my post is RESOLVED - there was a conflicting regex validation that affected this. I've no idea why, but deleting this Upload record and recreating it resolved)
File upload support?
Hello, I was wondering if this nice package does support file upload fields? I tried to use one but the stored data remains empty.
Thanks!

Are you just wanting an uploader package? You can try these:
Chunked Upload
Zip Upload
Multiple File Upload
Gecko Uploadify
Thanks for your reply Daniel.

Hi, did you ever get a solution for this? I need to use the RestContour package but also need to handle file uploads.

Anyone have success with this?
