Featurelayer.addAttachment problem in flex

ReenaSingh

Hi,

I am facing problem while using
var objectid:Number = serviceRequestId ;
var contentType:String ="jpeg";
var nameAttachment:String ="Service request attachment";
feature_ServiceRequest_Layer.addAttachment(objectid,_model.uploadedFileContent,_model.uploadedFileName,null,new AsyncResponder(onAttchmentResult,onFault));

I get the given error:
SecurityError: Error #2176: Certain actions, such as those that display a pop-up window, may only be invoked upon user interaction, for example by a mouse click or button press.

Please suggest me the solution.

Because of this Flash Player security restriction, you have to call featureLayer.addAttachment() after a button click. For example, if you have a button letting them choose a file using a FileReference, you need to have another button click before you call addAttachment(). You can't call it directly in the fileReference's complete event handler.

Thank you very much, it worked 🙂
