Don´t show label "Update..." when uploading a file

Question

Hi all,
I have the next situation. I made a functionality to upload and stores images in the db. I use an inputFile, and a commandButton which calls a bean method like this:
<af:gridCell marginStart="5px" marginEnd="5px" width="330px" id="gc10" inlineStyle="text-align:right;">
<af:inputFile label="Search image" id="if1" value="#{ImageBean.file}"
partialTriggers="cb6"/>
</af:gridCell>
<af:gridCell marginStart="5px" marginEnd="5px" width="100px;" id="gc8">
<af:commandButton text="Add image" id="cb6" action="#{ImageBean.uploadImage}"
inlineStyle="text-align:left;" disabled="false" />
</af:gridCell>
I do all the logic in the uploadImage method, and everything works fine (create the new row, insert the blob in that row, commit, display it on the screen, etc), but the thing is that when it returns, the inputFile shows a button "Update..." and I don´t want to show it because I already made the upload.
I want to show the inputFile just like it was to allow adding more images.
I'm using JDev 11.1.2.3.0.
I appreciate if anyone can suggest something.
Thanks.

Hi,
the easiest way is to set the value of ImageBean > "file" property to null so that the component does not have a value reference to the uploaded file.
