This might be a SWFUpload bug, but it's probably a Flash bug. I wrote it
up as an issue on the SWFUpload forum.
I don't think that we'll see a fix. And the only work around is to tell
folks to zip before they try to upload
All:
Eli has done some further debugging on the file upload issue with some
Mac files. I've quoted his conclusions above for context.
Given that the source of this bug is upstream of Infusion, possibly FAR
upstream, I recommend that the default upload widget be updated to
include an active toggle to switch off the flash uploader and fall back
to the basic uploader on demand.
I think I read something in the list archives a while ago where someone
had requested this, but in light of this bug I think it's much more
important.
Currently the flash uploader only falls back to basic mode when flash is
unavailable. Unfortunately, this particular bug only strikes when
certain files are chosen by a Mac user with a particular file system on
his hard drive - in short, there's no way to know in advance when it
won't work. The user needs the option to upload the problem file
another way.
