Hi,

When a file is uploaded via drag'n'drop, the onFileUploadComplete method (from actions.js) is called.
You will have to override this method and create your pop-up here.

To do this, I think you can register a new action called onFileUploadComplete, and it will automatically override the native one.
Here is an example :


YAHOO.Bubbling.fire("registerAction",
   {
      actionName: "onFileUploadComplete",
      fn: function onFileUploadComplete(complete) {
                // Create your popup here
                }
        }
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The problem is that this method is also called when you upload documents by other ways than drag'n'drop, or when you upload a new version of a document.
I don't know if it is a problem is your case…
