Hi,
If you are using PHP, remember to use the getimagesize() function to
add a bit of security to your upload script - if someone is trying to
spoof the image, it can add an extra level of security - possibly not
foolproof, but pretty good.
It's something like getimagesize($_FILES['myFileName']['tmpname'])
for normal HTML forms, maybe slightly different for Flash - look at some
of the Flash tut's for this.

Apologies, it is.
You need to add listeners for all the events that FileReference dispatches.
At a minimum you need to listen for the select event to begin uploading:
file.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, selectHandler);
Here is a link to the Flex 2 langref with an example that adds all the
listeners - check the Flash one if you are using CS3, but the class
should be the same, so you may be okay.
