  Old  PHP AJAX Mutiple File uploader problem!

Hello guys,
i'll try to explain the problem i am facing here. I had searched for many file uploaders with drag and drop interface. I came across something at http://demos.9lessons.info/multiupload/index.php called the multiuploader. I saw the code and it was a bit of nightmare to me as am not so great at jquery and PHP is what i am good at. I am developing an App using Codeigniter and media uploader is an essential part of the app. I am aiming to create a file uploader like WordPress Media Uploader. Now its going is really really difficult to integrate the file uploader with CI through AJAX so just for now i thought of creating the upload.php in a folder called AJAX which i places at the root of the CI files i.e outside the applications/ folder.

Thats the brief landscape of the platform i am working on right now. If you use the above link the files after uploading shows up on the drag and drop area with an onclick event on the blue upload button to upload all the files. i successfully modified the entire layout. Instead of an on click, i made it to upload the files automatically on drag and drop itself and decorated a little bit.

This is the original code in the multiuploader.js


function multiUploader(config){

this.config = config;
this.items = "";
this.all = []
var self = this;
var uploadBtn = $('#uploadbtn'),
defaultUploadBtn = $('#multiUpload');

uploadBtn.on('click', function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
e.preventDefault();
//trigger default file upload button
defaultUploadBtn.click();
});

multiUploader.prototype._init = function(){
if (window.File &&
window.FileReader &&
window.FileList &&
window.Blob) {
var inputId = $("#"+this.config.form).find("input[type='file']").eq(0).attr("id");
document.getElementById(inputId).addEventListener( "change", this._read, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addE ventListener("dragover", function(e){ e.stopPropagation(); e.preventDefault(); }, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addE ventListener("drop", this._dropFiles, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addE ventListener("drop", this._submit, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.form).addEvent Listener("change", this._submit, false);
} else
console.log("Browser supports failed");
}

multiUploader.prototype._submit = function(e){
e.stopPropagation(); e.preventDefault();
self._startUpload();
}

multiUploader.prototype._preview = function(data){
this.items = data;
if(this.items.length > 0){
var html = "";
var uId = "";
for(var i = 0; i<this.items.length; i++){
uId = this.items[i].name._unique();
var sampleIcon = '<img src="images/image.png" />';
var errorClass = "";
if(typeof this.items[i] != undefined){
if(self._validate(this.items[i].type) <= 0) {
sampleIcon = '<img src="images/unknown.png" />';
errorClass =" invalid";
}
html += '<div class="dfiles'+errorClass+'" rel="'+uId+'"><h5>'+sampleIcon+this.items[i].name+'</h5><div id="'+uId+'" class="progress" style="display:none; font-size: 11px">Edit Media</div></div>';
}
}
$("#filelist").append(html);
}
}

multiUploader.prototype._read = function(evt){
if(evt.target.files){
self._preview(evt.target.files);
self.all.push(evt.target.files);
} else
console.log("Failed file reading");
}

multiUploader.prototype._validate = function(format){
var arr = this.config.support.split(",");
return arr.indexOf(format);
}

multiUploader.prototype._dropFiles = function(e){
e.stopPropagation(); e.preventDefault();
self._preview(e.dataTransfer.files);
self.all.push(e.dataTransfer.files);
}

multiUploader.prototype._uploader = function(file,f){
if(typeof file[f] != undefined && self._validate(file[f].type) > 0){
var data = new FormData();
var ids = file[f].name._unique();
data.append('file',file[f]);
data.append('index',ids);
$(".dfiles[rel='"+ids+"']").find(".progress").show();
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
url:this.config.uploadUrl,
data:data,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
success:function(rponse){
$("#"+ids).hide();
var obj = $(".dfiles").get();
$.each(obj,function(k,fle){
if($(fle).attr("rel") == rponse){
// alert(rponse);
// $(fle).slideUp("normal", function(){ $(this).remove(); });
}
});
if (f+1 < file.length) {
self._uploader(file,f+1);
}
}
});
} else
console.log("Invalid file format - "+file[f].name);
}

multiUploader.prototype._startUpload = function(){
if(this.all.length > 0){
for(var k=0; k<this.all.length; k++){
var file = this.all[k];
this._uploader(file,0);
}
}
}

String.prototype._unique = function(){
return this.replace(/[a-zA-Z]/g, function(c){
return String.fromCharCode((c <= "Z" ? 90 : 122) >= (c = c.charCodeAt(0) + 13) ? c : c - 26);
});
}

this._init();
}

function initMultiUploader(){
new multiUploader(config);
}

I changed some few lines in it and below given is the modified multiuploader.js file

function multiUploader(config){

this.config = config;
this.items = "";
this.all = []
var self = this;
var uploadBtn = $('#uploadbtn'),
defaultUploadBtn = $('#multiUpload');

uploadBtn.on('click', function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
e.preventDefault();
//trigger default file upload button
defaultUploadBtn.click();
});

multiUploader.prototype._init = function(){
if (window.File &&
window.FileReader &&
window.FileList &&
window.Blob) {
var inputId = $("#"+this.config.form).find("input[type='file']").eq(0).attr("id");
document.getElementById(inputId).addEventListener( "change", this._read, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addE ventListener("dragover", function(e){ e.stopPropagation(); e.preventDefault(); }, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addE ventListener("drop", this._dropFiles, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.dragArea).addE ventListener("drop", this._submit, false);
document.getElementById(this.config.form).addEvent Listener("change", this._submit, false);
} else
console.log("Browser supports failed");
}

multiUploader.prototype._submit = function(e){
e.stopPropagation(); e.preventDefault();
self._startUpload();
}

multiUploader.prototype._preview = function(data){
this.items = data;
if(this.items.length > 0){
var html = "";
var uId = "";
for(var i = 0; i<this.items.length; i++){
uId = this.items[i].name._unique();
var sampleIcon = '<img src="images/icons/small/image.png" />';
var errorClass = "";
var msg="";
if(typeof this.items[i] != undefined){
if(self._validate(this.items[i].type) <= 0) {
sampleIcon = '<img src="images/icons/small/alert.png" />';
errorClass =" invalid";
msg=" <span style='color: red'>Invalid File </span>";
}
var sampleIcon = '';
// html += '<div class="dfiles'+errorClass+'" rel="'+uId+'"><div id="'+uId+'" class="progress" style="display:none; font-size: 11px"><a href="#">Edit Media</a></div><h5><b>'+sampleIcon+this.items[i].name+'</b> '+msg+'</h5></div>';
}
}
// $("#dragAndDropFiles").append(html);
}
}

multiUploader.prototype._read = function(evt){
if(evt.target.files){
self._preview(evt.target.files);
self.all.push(evt.target.files);
} else
console.log("Failed file reading");
}

multiUploader.prototype._validate = function(format){
var arr = this.config.support.split(",");
return arr.indexOf(format);
}

multiUploader.prototype._dropFiles = function(e){
e.stopPropagation(); e.preventDefault();
self._preview(e.dataTransfer.files);
self.all.push(e.dataTransfer.files);
}

multiUploader.prototype._uploader = function(file,f){
if(typeof file[f] != undefined && self._validate(file[f].type) > 0){
var data = new FormData();
var ids = file[f].name._unique();
data.append('file',file[f]);
data.append('index',ids);
$(".dfiles[rel='"+ids+"']").find(".progress").show();
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
url:this.config.uploadUrl,
data:data,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
success:function(rponse){
$("#"+ids).hide();
$("#filelist").append(rponse);

var obj = $(".dfiles").get();
$.each(obj,function(k,fle){
if($(fle).attr("rel") == rponse){
$(fle).slideUp("normal", function(){ $(this).remove(); });
}
});
if (f+1 < file.length) {
self._uploader(file,f+1);
}
}
});
} else
console.log("Invalid file format - "+file[f].name);
}

multiUploader.prototype._startUpload = function(){
alert(this.all.length);
if(this.all.length > 0){
for(var k=0; k<this.all.length; k++){
var file = this.all[k];
this._uploader(file,0);
}
}
}

String.prototype._unique = function(){
return this.replace(/[a-zA-Z]/g, function(c){
return String.fromCharCode((c <= "Z" ? 90 : 122) >= (c = c.charCodeAt(0) + 13) ? c : c - 26);
});
}

this._init();
}

function initMultiUploader(){
new multiUploader(config);
}


Now finally..i got the script to work for drag and drop interface and its perfect but am getting repetitions in the filelist it produces, infact it is uploading the files uploaded before again. I can explain....

Upload No.1 : a.png (these are the files i selected)
All the above mentioned files are uploaded and done perfectly.
Upload No.2 : b.png (this is the file i selected while uploading in the second round)

The expected output after the 2nd upload is naturally a.png, b.png right? but the output i am getting is a.png, a.png, b.png. It is showing the previous upload again and again. Can i anyone kindly this script for me please? I literally spent 5 days on this shit. I have already gone nuts.

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!
