But why? I can't see any good reason...why not using the sending of the data as the 'check'?
Or is it to save bandwidth maybe? If it gets a 404 from the script, it won't bother uploading the data? But webbrowsers don't do this (like uploading from a HTML Form), so I dunno why they decided to do this in flash. I've seen this question asked a dozen times on this list now. It should be put in the help files for FileReference.upload(). -David R On 1/15/06, Lanny McNie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This isn't a bug.
