Validation uploadify

Question

I am using jQuery Uploadify to upload files to my site. How can I tell if a user has selected a file or not? I tried using the folder object value of the Uploadify object but its not working for me--it's always the same. I assume that it was null before it was selected.

How can I tell that a user has selected a file?

You could try something like this:

<script type="text/javascript">  
var selected = false;
$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#fileInput').uploadify({
        'uploader'  : 'uploadify.swf',
        'script'    : 'uploadify.php',
        'cancelImg' : 'cancel.png',  
        'auto'      : true,  
        'folder'    : '/uploads',
        'onSelect'  : function() { selected = true; },
        'onCancel'  : function() { selected = false; }
    });
});
</script>

Then you can test if 'selected' is true/false.
