FlashUP ~ 3 months ago
This is a small "web component" I've just made for handling uploads. It uses Flash to support multiple files at once, to be a little more robust than simple html, and to have information of the upload progress, which is displayed using javascript+css.
(well, in the video the upload is done locally and the files are relatively small, so the progress bars go from 0 to 100 :P)
Download FlashUP
The installation is very simple:
1. In your HTML, put the traditional code for a file upload:
<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="file" id="fileid"><br>
<input type="submit">
</form>
2. Include flashup.js, and call flashup('fileid') function after the page is loaded.
3. Set your button and progress bars style (see index.html included in the package)
If Flash is available, the form content will be replaced by FlashUP, and files can be uploaded like balloons in the air. If Flash is not available, the form will remain as originally was.
The code it's very simple and straightforward, I just made something lightweight and productive for my own projects, and I thought someone could use it too, so here it is :)
Cheers!
