[GeoNetwork-devel] File upload popup not displaying errors in IE

Hi

The file upload popup in metadata editor seem not working well in IE. For example, uploading same file to a metadata record without checking Overwrite option in FF shows a message like:

Error

File upload unsuccessful.

Exception : File upload unsuccessful because csw.xml already exists and overwrite was not permitted

but not the same in IE: no message is displayed, so no feedback to user.

Seem is used webtoolkit.aim.js to manage about the file upload and for IE fails in line 40 with Permission denied. Line 40:

if (i.contentDocument) {

Anyone has an idea of this?

Also a question: why use this library for file uploads? Can’t be handle with Prototype that is extensively used already? Maybe there’s a very good reason to use it, but we have lots of javascript libraries in GeoNetwork. In case that no good reason, I would like to change the code to avoid it.
