Description John Arthorne CLA 2011-10-28 10:14:32 EDT 
Running on localhost using latest master as of 20111028

I was importing some zips into my workspace today. The first one succeeded, but the second zip consistently fails with:

form data: Object 8080/org.dojotoolkit/dojox/form/uploader/plugins/HTML5.js:51
event.js:118Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'preventDefault'

Now I don't seem to be able to import the first zip, which I successfully imported earlier today... very strange.

i've seen this too before.  i'll take this bug because i have some other import related ones.
Comment 4 John Arthorne CLA 2011-10-31 10:36:43 EDT 
I realized afterwards that the second zip was succeeding, but it was overwriting a file already in the folder, so I didn't see any visible effect. So it seems there is just spew in the console but the import actually works...

I had thought that I was assigned this because I asked some questions about uploading files - why they had to be zips, and was given the task of looking into it. I haven't started doing that yet. It might take a while for me to understand this! 

From the description of this problem though, it seems that it might all be web client related - just not representing itself to the user in the correct state. I can look at it some more tomorrow. Susan, can you advise me on this? Did I get assigned this to look at in relation to the other analysis/improvement work on uploading files?

Fixed this problem in my latest work, by adding the preventDefault method for the call.
