Hi @varma2 ,

Create  onsubmit client script which validates the file which is loaded.

function onSubmit() {
    // Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
    var arr = [];
    var extensions = ['.txt','.sql'];
    try {
        var names = this.document.getElementsByClassName('get-attachment ng-binding ng-scope');
        if (names.length === 0) {
            alert('Please attach at least one file.');
            return false;
        }

        for (var i = 0; i < names.length; i++) {
            var val = names[i].innerHTML;
            arr.push(val.toString());
        }

        for (var j = 0; j < arr.length; j++) {
            var isValid = false;
            for (var k = 0; k < extensions.length; k++) {
                if (arr[j].indexOf(extensions[k]) !== -1) {
                    isValid = true;
                    break;
                }
            }
            if (!isValid) {
                alert('Please give files with one of the following extensions: ' + extensions.join(', '));
                return false;
            }
        }
    } 
}

You can create a script include and a onsubmit client scirpt using ajax call you can validate the type of file attached to the catlaog before submission,

remove the try block keep the script only within onLoad function.
