I don't know if it's the cleanest, safest, securest, but awhile back (May 18, 2010) I put together a Rails (2.3.5) app together with swfupload and a lot of debugging output to show what JS handlers get tripped when. It's configured to only allow JPG uploads and resizes them prior to uploading. I just put it up on github if you want to download it and play. http://github.com/phallstrom/swfupload-rails-paperclip-jpg-resize-example It will spit out a bunch of debug messages as you interact with it. See here: http://pastefree.pjkh.com/pastes/128 My memory is that the progress meter doesn't work if you resize the files on the client side. So if you want to see something other than 0% and 100% turn that off. SWF Upload may well have fixed that by now, I haven't been following it. -philip -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
