When using the upload file from webpages that have specific file types allowed to their upload link, the SiteKiosk Chrome browser defaults to first file extension the allowed list and the users must click the drop-down to see "All files".
The code behind the website upload button is:
<input type="file" class="file-form-element__input" multiple="" data-bind="event: { change: element.onFileSelected },
attr: attributes,
hasFocus: isFocused" id="attachment-upload-2" name="attachment-upload" accept=".txt, .rtf, .doc, .docx, .pdf, .odt, .htm, .html" title="Upload Resume">
The real website I'm having problems with is behind a login so, here is a test example that I created:
https://www.w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=GJBKKP073WI2
It works as intended on other computers with Chrome browsers, but is causing trouble on SiteKiosk computers running 9.8.5547 using the Chrome browser. When you try to upload a file on a SiteKiosk computer, it opens explorer and it defaults to which ever file type is first in the list (in my case .txt). You must click the file types drop down to then view all files.
I’ve tried many other websites with upload file capabilities and they all seem to function normally on the SiteKiosk PCs and show all files or just image files. See attached (SiteKiosk_BrowserIssue.pdf) for an example of after you have clicked upload link from SiteKiosk computer and an example from another computer not running SiteKiosk.
At this point, getting the html changed on the website is not possible. So, does anyone know why SiteKiosk with Chrome are not displaying "Custom Files" when trying to upload on a website using the input type= and accept= code or have suggestions on how to correct?
Thanks,
