Hi, this is Rüdiger I’m a developer from Alkacon Software GmbH in Cologne, Germany. This year we are planning to release our new version 8 of OpenCms. Therefore we want to support our customers with a File API / FormData based upload functionality. This new upload feature should also provide drag and drop. ### Context: HTML5 - File API in combination with Drag and Drop Problem: If you drop directories/folders on to a defined "dropzone", I assume that it is not possible to "detect" that the dropped file is a directory. Target: When a user drops a directory, I want to inform the user in some way that directories can't be handled by the "program". Note: I know that it should not be possible to read a whole directory structure for security reason and that is not the point I want to make. Suggestion: Extend the File Interface for a attribute called directory interface File : Blob { readonly attribute DOMString name; readonly attribute DOMString directory; readonly attribute DOMString lastModifiedDate; }; directory: Has the value 'true' if the file is a directory, 'false' otherwise Kind regards -- Rüdiger Kurz ------------------- Visit OpenCms Days 2011 Conference and Expo May 9 to May 10 2011 in Cologne, Germany http://www.opencms-days.org Alkacon Software GmbH - The OpenCms Experts Rüdiger Kurz An der Wachsfabrik 13 50996 Koeln, DE Tel: +49 (0)2236 3826-16 Fax: +49 (0)2236 3826-20 Email: r.kurz@alkacon.com http://www.alkacon.com http://www.opencms.org Geschäftsführer: Alexander Kandzior, Amtsgericht Köln, HRB 54613
