However you want to look at it, the point is that the HTTP upload option (or whatever the Flash side of the tool does) exists.
The OP wants to upload more than 4GB and I wouldn't trust HTTP to
transfer 4GB from a client to a server on a regular basis. There is no
way to resume a failed upload.
I agree with you on that.
Sincerely thank all answer the question firstly.
Upload large file will block the app AFAIK,and user can't browse others at the same time .
And then they think it has hung. And then they go away.

I found that the dropbox is just a Cross-platform client,and need to connect a dropbox account. because of the network environment , we didn't be allowed to do it. I download the software in other web site,but I could't connect successfully. And I found that the total capacity is 2G. So,it is still not a good idea for me. dropbox is on behalf of network disks. there are so many productions like this,but the capacity all is small. So , I doublt that it is possible for browser to upload the very very large file ? and I whether can to use a web browser to upload files via FTP ?

So, just to be as clear as possible.

I suggested you look at Dropbox to see how they used Flash. Not because they would be a possible 3rd party library or add-on. Just see how they do a big upload. See if they offer restart of a failed upload. Have a look at how they solved the same problem.
