I c . I'll need to make some more changes to the current implementation
and figure out how to get this done using jQuery File Upload plugin
extension points . I think highlighting «updated» word might be useful to
identify recent file file uploads . What du you think ?

... but I'd not recommend to do so due to the characteristics of web
applications . I mean, maybe there was no other file with the same name at
file selection time (i.e. when upload form fields are added dynamically) ,
but it does exist later when file is uploaded onto the server . Its
possible that such race conditions will happen in practice .
