Extension of scriptData

arxeiss

Hi guys, I love you, uploadify is amazing, so cool. Wau
I want to send some other data with files, so I use scriptData: ... but it requires an object and if I have a form and I putting to scriptData data form this form, it is annoying to do object from this form when I use serialize() in jQuery.

I change it, but I think that it could be in original source. Here is my solution.
This is on line 74 in jquery.uploadify.v2.1.4.js


...
if (settings.scriptData) {
  if(typeof settings.scriptData === "object"){
    var scriptDataString = '';
    for (var name in settings.scriptData) {
      scriptDataString += '&' + name + '=' + settings.scriptData[name];
    }
    data.scriptData = escape(scriptDataString.substr(1));
  }else{
    data.scriptData = settings.scriptData;
  }
}
...

And how it works? If user puts there an object, like {attributy: value...}, it does what it does to this time, but if he puts there a string which serialize() returns, it only copy it to data.scriptData.
Docs of serialize() on official jQuery page.

P.S. If you replay to this thread, you can also tell me where I have mistake in my English :D

Uups I have a error there, you have to escaped it, so

...
if (settings.scriptData) {
  if(typeof settings.scriptData === "object"){
    var scriptDataString = '';
    for (var name in settings.scriptData) {
      scriptDataString += '&' + name + '=' + settings.scriptData[name];
    }
    data.scriptData = escape(scriptDataString.substr(1));
  }else{
    data.scriptData = escapesettings.scriptData);
  }
}
...

And if you use a .uploadifySettings(); then you have to put it also into this function.
On line 253

uploadifySettings:function(settingName, settingValue, resetObject) {
  var returnValue = false;
  jQuery(this).each(function() {
  	if (settingName == 'scriptData' && settingValue != null) {
  		if (resetObject) {
  			var scriptData = settingValue;
  		} else {
  			var scriptData = jQuery.extend(jQuery(this).data('settings').scriptData, settingValue);
  		}
  		var scriptDataString = '';
  		if(typeof scriptData === "object"){
        for (var name in settings.scriptData) {
          scriptDataString += '&' + name + '=' + scriptData[name];
        }
        settingValue = escape(scriptDataString.substr(1));
      }else{
        settingValue = escape(scriptData);
      }
  	}
  	returnValue = document.getElementById(jQuery(this).attr('id') + 'Uploader').updateSettings(settingName, settingValue);
  });
