Auto Pop-Up of Transfers Window

[austin_notloggedin]

Is there any way to make it so the transfers window (AKA Progress Window) will pop up automatically once the user tries to upload a file in the RAWR template?  People just aren't smart enough to figure out that even though it doesn't look like anything is being uploaded, it is and no one knows they have to click the "Transfers" link in order to see their upload progress.

Find the function that fires when an upload is commenced, I think its disBtns or something. And place openTransfers(); at the bottom above the '}'... should do what you want...

Tested, it does 

Austin you have to modify rawr_main.js like this:

/* Upload JS */
var f=0;
function addInput() {
   f++;
   fr=document.upfrm;
   mr=fr.more;
   document.getElementById('f'+f).style.display='block';
   if(f>=9)mr.disabled='disabled';
}
function disableBtns() {
   fr=document.upfrm;
   fr.upbtn.disabled=fr.more.disabled='disabled';
   openTransfers();
}

Thanks a lot guys.  It works 100%.  This is why I need to learn Javascript better.  One question though.  I don't use popup blockers myself, so how would a popup blocker affect this new function?  Is there any way to make it pop up like the RAWR player does?  The RAWR player doesn't use another browser window so it shouldn't be able to be affected by popup blockers, right?

Well firefox and most modern browsers have a built in popup blocker, and it hasn't stopped it yet. Not possible with the preview box, not without a lot of work.

That's okay.  I'm going to try something with a flash popup window.  Don't know if it'll work, but if it does it'll definitely be something I integrate into my permanent template.

Just one other question.  Is there a way to make this thing only pop up if the file is say....2mb or larger?  Having it pop up for a 23k office document is rather useless and annoying.

No idea. Someone else will have to help you with that.
