OnClientFilesSelected

The OnClientFilesSelected client-side event occurs when files(s) are selected. This event can be cancelled, which will erase the selectedfiles collection.

The event handler receives two parameters:

1. The instance of the RadAsyncUpload control firing the event.

2. An eventArgs parameter containing the following methods:

• get_count returns the count of the selected files.

• set_cancel lets you cancel the event and prevent items from being uploaded

	var selectedFilesCount = args.get_count();
	alert(selectedFilesCount);
