Uploadify swf versus fileuploader.js

[Matthew Summers]

Hello,

I'm just curious if anyone has tried replacing the flash-based
filebrowser-safe uploader with the JS-based uploader from filebrowser?
It appears that the successor to fileuploader.js is called
fine-uploader, but you gotta build it yourself if you want to use it
for free. Looks easy enough.

Any interest in nuking the swf? I'll probably give it a shot today.
From what I can see, it doesn't look to be too bad, and it might just
be a drop-in deal.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Matt

Sure thing. I have it mostly working now. It's a hack job replacing
some of the upload functionality with the stuff from
django-filebrowser. Some easily realized benefits: No flash, CSRF
works, and here it is again no flash! I need to clean things up and
create a patchset for review. Probably be next week with a little
luck.

Pardon my doubling of this comment but it seems more appropriate here:

I have experience doing multiple uploads via jQuery and ajax POSTs. You could then add "not being page refreshes" to your list of bonuses. Any interest along those lines?
