jQuery MultiFile - how to clear / reset ?

Hi all, I'm using the jQuery multi-file upload plugin found here:
http://www.fyneworks.com/jquery/multiple-file-upload/

I don't see in any of the examples though a way to "reset" the file-picker, clearing out any currently selected items.

Any one know how to do this? Thanks!

From the documentation included in the download. Also noted on the Upload documentation page (scroll to bottom, under AJAX).

How do I reset the control?

To reset the file selections, just make the following call:

$('input:file').MultiFile('reset')

Ah, thanks for that. I missed that at the bottom of the page down there. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work... even though my selector does return items. Ah well, on to something else.

Hey, I'm the developer of the plugin in question. Would you mind posting an URL with your code so I can take a look?

Hello Diego; I can't post you a link to the app, because it is an intranet app, developed for a government agency. However, I copied out the relevant files, and created a small sample reproducing the problem. To access this sample, please use the following url: http://www.box.net/shared/95ht0di9cj .

Oh, in the little sample page, just click the button to run the code that should clear the inputs.

No, I wound up rolling my own jQuerified multi-upload thing.

For anyone interested, I uploaded my multi-file here. I wound up rolling my own, because I could not get this plug-in to work.

I had to cull a lot out of the file that was specific to the client, but the important stuff for the file upload should all be there. I did NOT include the upload library for parsing the form submission, just the client code for creating a multi-file upload UI, for what it is. It's all provided as is.

Hope it may help somebody!
