<script>
    function onSelect(args) {
        var uploadObj = document.getElementById("UploadFiles").ej2_instances[0];
        var totalSize = 0;
        for (var i = 0; i < args.filesData.length; i++) {
            var file = args.filesData[i];
            totalSize = totalSize + file.size;
        }
        var size = uploadObj.bytesToSize(totalSize);
