Yep, trouble is it's a player issue, not Flex, and involves changing some low level machinery in the mozilla plugin. :(

My colleague Stacy Young discovered this a month or so ago and submitted and bug and many enhancement requests regarding file upload. I think this is an area that needs improvement. I'm not quite sure of the top of my head what Stacy did to resolve this problem, but I'll make sure he replies on Monday with any suggestions.

Does anyone have an answer for this? It seems that the Flex app within Firefox will maintain one session for an Upload request and a different session for a get request back to the server. Within the same application you can do multiple posts/gets and uploads and it keeps the same session, but a different one for posts/gets and uploads. It is as if the browser has two session going on. The bad thing here is that it practically makes an upload application useless if a person has logged in via the web site. When they do an upload, the web site will not recognize the sessionid as logged in and it will not work. Also, adding a session id like jsessionid to the URL of the upload most likely will not work if the server thinks the browser is accepting cookies, which it is. Any ideas here? If this is a bug that can't be worked around, it is a real problem for us. We can't make our users only use Internet Explorer.
