Description

How can I hide the selected files for upload from the user interface and render the button for the upload confirmation only in the Kendo UI Upload?

Solution

The following example demonstrates how to hide the selected files for upload from the user interface and render only the Select files button without additional UI elements in the Upload.

  <style>
     #wrapper {
       display: inline-block;
     }

     .k-upload {
       border-width: 0;
     }

     .k-upload .k-dropzone {
       padding: 0;
     }

     .k-upload-status-total {
       display: none;
     }
   </style>

   <div id="wrapper">
           <input name="files" id="files" type="file" />
         </div>

     <script>
       $(document).ready(function() {
         $("#files").kendoUpload({
           async: {
             saveUrl: "save",
             removeUrl: "remove"
           },
           showFileList: false
         });

         //Removing the "Drop files here message"
         $("#files").closest(".k-upload").find(".k-dropzone em").remove();
       });
     </script>
