How to display file name with javascript after upload - javascript

I want to use a different button to upload files to a form. Therefore, i hide the standard upload file button. However, i do want to display the filename when a user uploads a file.
Using wordpress contact form 7, i already tried putting a JS function on the label, but that doesnt work.
<label for="fileInput" class="custom-file-upload" onclick="displayfilename()">Choose file</label>
<input id="fileInput" name="fileInput" type="file" />
<span class="fileuploadspan">No file selected</span>
<script>
function displayfilename()
$('#fileInput').change(function(){
var filename = $(this).val().split('\\').pop();
});
</script>
The filename should be displayed next to the label.

You can use Event​.target along with triggering the change event.
Please Note: You also have syntax error in your code (missing the {.......} part of the function displayfilename).
$('#fileInput').change(function(e){
var filename = e.target.files[0].name;
console.log(filename);
});
function displayfilename() {
$('#fileInput').trigger('change');
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<label for="fileInput" class="custom-file-upload" >Choose file</label>
<input id="fileInput" name="fileInput" type="file" />
<span class="fileuploadspan">No file selected</span>
OR: You can also use this object:
$('#fileInput').change(function(){
var filename = $(this)[0].files[0].name;
console.log(filename);
});
function displayfilename() {
$('#fileInput').trigger('change');
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<label for="fileInput" class="custom-file-upload" >Choose file</label>
<input id="fileInput" name="fileInput" type="file" />
<span class="fileuploadspan">No file selected</span>

$('#fileInput').change(function(e){
var filename = e.target.files[0].name;
console.log(filename);
});
function displayfilename() {
$('#fileInput').trigger('change');
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<label for="fileInput" class="custom-file-upload" >Choose file</label>
<input id="fileInput" name="fileInput" type="file" />
<span class="fileuploadspan">No file selected</span>

You can access the file name in this way:
<label for="fileInput" class="custom-file-upload" onclick="displayfilename()">Choose file</label>
<input id="fileInput" name="fileInput" type="file" />
<span class="fileuploadspan">No file selected</span>
<script>
function displayfilename()
$('#fileInput').change(function(e) {
var fileName = e.target.files[0].name;
alert('The file "' + fileName + '" has been selected.');
});
</script>

Here's a custom <button> and a custom filename <span>:
$('.choosefile').click(function () {
$('#fileInput').click();
});
$('#fileInput').change(function(e) {
var filename = this.files[0].name;
$('.fileuploadspan').text(filename);
});
input[type=file] {
display: none
}
.choosefile, .fileuploadspan {
font-family: "Comic Sans MS"
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<label for="fileInput" class="custom-file-upload">Choose file</label>
<button class="choosefile">Browse...</button>
<input id="fileInput" name="fileInput" type="file" />
<span class="fileuploadspan">No file selected</span>

Show a preview picture using JavaScript before uploading files

I have a little script for uploading images with PHP and showing a preview picture before click "upload". It uses an input "multiple" for upload multiple files... So done, it works fine, but I have a little problem ...
When I duplicate the input type="file" (and erase Multiple) with two, three or more inputs, PHP processes the uploaded files but JavaScript shows the first picture only ...
How can I show a picture for all the inputs?
This is my script :
index.php
<?php include("file-upload.php"); ?>

The #chooseFile CSS selector selects by ID - that's what the # does. IDs must be unique in HTML (obviously, because the whole point of an ID is to uniquely identify something). So to make that select several input elements, you'd be best to use a class instead as the selector.
For example:
$(function() {
// Multiple images preview with JavaScript
var multiImgPreview = function(input, imgPreviewPlaceholder) {
if (input.files) {
var filesAmount = input.files.length;
for (i = 0; i < filesAmount; i++) {
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = function(event) {
$($.parseHTML('<img>')).attr('src', event.target.result).appendTo(imgPreviewPlaceholder);
}
reader.readAsDataURL(input.files[i]);
}
}
};
$('.chooseFile').on('change', function() {
console.log("detected change");
multiImgPreview(this, 'div.imgGallery');
});
});
.imgGallery img {
padding: 8px;
max-width: 100px;
}

Check this now you can put conditions on type of file & size.
// Try this jQuery ;)
$("form").on('change', 'input[type=file]', function() {
var file;
var this = $(this);
if (file = this.files[0])
{
var img = new Image();
img.onload = function () {
// correct
// check alert(img.src)
}
img.onerror = function () {
//error info
};
img.src = _URL.createObjectURL(file);
}
}

you can get files name like this.

javascript accept only image not working

In my code I want to accept only image file.otherwise it will not accept and will give alert that its not image file.
I have done below code in jsfiddle:--
jsfiddle link
but the problem is it..It is not giving any message.what am I doing wrong?
https://jsfiddle.net/weufx7dy/2/
You forgot to add id on file element
<input type="file" id="file" name="fileUpload" size="50" />
You had used
var image =document.getElementById("file").value;
but forgot to give id to file control so give that
<input type="file" name="fileUpload" id="file" size="50" />
and try following code in w3schools tryit browser and use onClick event on submit button instead of onSubmit
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div align="center">
<form:form modelAttribute="profilePic" method="POST"enctype="multipart/form-data" action="/SpringMvc/addImage">
<input type="file" name="fileUpload" id="file" size="50" />
<input type="submit" value="Add Picture" onClick="Validate();"/>
</form:form>
</div>
<script>
function Validate(){
var image =document.getElementById("file").value;
if(image!=''){
var checkimg = image.toLowerCase();
if (!checkimg.match(/(\.jpg|\.png|\.JPG|\.PNG|\.gif|\.GIF|\.jpeg|\.JPEG)$/)){
alert("Please enter Image File Extensions .jpg,.png,.jpeg,.gif");
document.getElementById("file").focus();
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Use this :
userfile.addEventListener('change', checkFileimg, false);
function checkFileimg(e) {
var file_list = e.target.files;
for (var i = 0, file; file = file_list[i]; i++) {
var sFileName = file.name;
var sFileExtension = sFileName.split('.')[sFileName.split('.').length - 1].toLowerCase();
var iFileSize = file.size;
var iConvert = (file.size / 10485760).toFixed(2);
if (!(sFileExtension === "jpg")) {
txt = "File type : " + sFileExtension + "\n\n";
txt += "Please make sure your file is in jpg format.\n\n";
alert(txt);
document.getElementById('userfile').value='';
}
}
}

Javascript File Contents

So I got this script that is supposed to output the file contents of an uploaded file in base64 encoding, the problem is that it also outputs something like data:image/jpeg;base64, at the beginning of the encoded output. What do I need to do so this script just outputs the encoded file contents of the uploaded file and not data:image/jpeg;base64, etc?

change code to
document.write(imgUrl.split(',').pop());
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
or
var imgUrl = $('#uploadImageValue').val().split(',').pop();
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
