Hi,   i am trying for uploading multiple files using attachment_fu plugin.   i use MultiSelector javascript for this purpose.It helps me to store   minimum three files before uploading.but when i deleted one file   and replace with another file.the rest of the files including this files are not save in the database.

  i include required javascript files as attachment.   here is my code, in view

  <% form_for :fileindex, :url => { :action => 'create' }, :html => { :multipart => true } do |f| %>         <%= javascript_include_tag "multifile_compressed"%>     <%= file_field 'file', 'data' %><br>     <div id="files_list">Files (maximum 3):</div>     <script>     var multi_selector = new MultiSelector( document.getElementById( 'files_list' ),3);     multi_selector.addElement( document.getElementById( 'file_data' ) );     </script>     <p><%= f.submit:Create %></p>     <% end %>

in controller:   def create    i = 0 while params['file_'+i.to_s] !="" && !params['file_'+i.to_s].nil? # puts params['file'+i.to_s]   p = Hash["fileindex"=>{"uploaded_data"=>""}] # puts p   p["fileindex"]["uploaded_data"] = params["file_"+i.to_s] # puts p["Fileindex"].size # if p["Fileindex"].size>0     @fileindex = Fileindex.create! p["fileindex"] # end i += 1 end end

any urgent help is required.                       thanks,

May I know y u need 3 uploads at a time. I guess with attachment_fu u cant upload and save multiplt files at one shot. Instead u need to itrate and save.

if u could explain the requirement I may suggest an alternative solution.

Anyway Is the requirement related to praps.com ??
