Hi Johannes, Signing such a large piece of data would be too costly and wouldn't be possible from only javascript, for the reason you described. Your best bet is to make a form that POSTs the data to your remote server and handle it like normal.
Why do you need the file to be signed? It doesn't actually get you anything, since the contents of the file are still supplied by the end user. Signing is only really useful for parameters that the container inserts (like ID numbers of people) so that end users cannot tamper with them. ~Arne On Wed, Apr 2, 2008 at 1:21 AM, jfahrenkrug <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I know that fileuploads work from any google gadget.
