I think a bit more detail regarding your problem would be in order.

"It is not working" is not a useful description of what is happening.

What is happening? Is the keyboard bursting into flame? Computer blowing up? Seriously, how can anyone help you without any information on what the problem is?

Sorry friend

this is the message i am getting, when i am clicking "Upload Button"

"The file is empty or the file path entered is not valid. Please browse for the correct file or type in the correct file path."

Hmm, I do this all the time in Safari without issue. You'll probably need to look at the multi-part request being sent to the server and see what's different between the requests being sent from the browsers that work and the browsers that don't.

[kajal mukergi]

what you mean by multi part request

[Bear Bibeault]

If you don't know what that is, how are you dealing with the file upload on the server?

[kajal mukergi]

yes friend i have idea

actually i am using an java script to the data

like this

document.getElementById('uploadProgressSection').style.display = 'block';

do you think this will not work on safari

[Bear Bibeault]

Sure that will work in Safari, but what does it have to do with your file upload?
