Hi MDB staff,

I registred as a free a user but in fact my boss bought the MDB pro licence so I am working with it now and I have a problem with the MDBFileInput component.

First, I have this code for uploading a file with a simple input which is working :

const initState = {
selectedFile: null,
}

class FormTeacher extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
      this.state = initState;
  }

onChangeHandleFile = (evt) => {

   this.setState({
      selectedFile: evt.target.files[0],
    });
  }

onClickHandleFile = () => {
    if(this.state.selectedFile !== null){
    const data = new FormData()
    data.append('file', this.state.selectedFile)
    axios.post("some API", data, {})
    .then(res => {
      console.log("Upload");
    })
    console.log(this.state.selectedFile);
    }
}

render() {
    return (
      <MDBContainer>
        <MDBRow>
          <MDBCol>
            <MDBCard>
              <MDBCardBody>
                  <form
                    className="needs-validation"
                    onSubmit={this.submitHandler}
                    noValidate
                  >
…
    <MDBRow>
                      <input type="file" name="file"
                      className='file' id="uploadedFile" onChange={this.onChangeHandleFile}/>
    </MDBRow>
    </form>
    </MDBCardBody>
              {this.state.isClicked === true ? (<DisplayQuizz evalStatus= {evalStatus} selectTest={selectTest} cancelForm={this.cancelForm} formData ={this.state} hideDisplayQuizz={this.hideDisplayQuizz} uploadFile={this.onClickHandleFile}/>) : ""}

            </MDBCard>
          </MDBCol>
        </MDBRow>
      </MDBContainer>
    );
}

But when I want to do the same thing with MDBInputfile and the getValue method, I have this error :

And I don’t understand why it is not working although it works with a basic input. I searched on your website about MDBInputFile but did not find much information. I would be very glad if someone could explain me how I can make work this component.

I am looking forward from hearing from you.

Best regards,

Marion
