1148831 - event.originalEvent jQuery returns empty set.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 757664

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[bipashasen]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/39.0.2171.95 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

While implementing drag and drop, I wanted to use the native Form and not Ajax/xhr. 


Actual results:

Using $('input).prop('files', event.originalEvent) solved the issue in chrome and opera but not in FireFox. Firefox returned an empty set. 


Expected results:

$('input).prop('files', event.originalEvent) should have added the files dragged into a div to the input of type = file. Which didn't happen.

Thanks for the report. I guess assigning to |files| failed (due to bug 757664), but in the future please attach a testcase, as it makes much easier to see what the problem is.
