SWFUpload Flash-based Form Upload Tool

Posted on Nov 17, 2006

Geoff Stearns of deconcept has just posted about a new tool that uses his awesome swfObject to create a Flash-based form file upload tool called swfUpload. There is a demo on the homepage and it appears to work very nicely. Since it triggers functions on start, cancel, progress and complete, I assume you could use something like ajaxCFC to trigger CF processes that might be required to process the file after upload. Another nice feature is that if the user has Flash or JavaScript disabled, the tool degrades nicely into a standard HTML file upload field.

Rob Gonda I ran into that link yesterday ... it is indeed a nice application. Should easily integrate with any Ajax app. I like the fact it is extensible and degradable.
