RE: Multiple file upload - flash forms?
I am not sure if Flash Forms can do this but Flash 8 certainly can. -Original Message- From: muzl hed [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 March 2006 15:44 To: CF-Talk Subject: Multiple file upload - flash forms?

RE: Multiple file upload - flash forms?
There is an Flash upload example by AS Fusion (http://www.asfusion.com/blog/entry/file-upload-with-coldfusion-flash-forms) .. In know that is possible to create a multiple file upload with flash, but how you can do it with this example I dont know. -Original Message- From: muzl hed [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2006 4:44 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Multiple file upload - flash forms?

RE: Multiple file upload - flash forms?
I would imagine that you'd have to build it directly in flash. Even then, I'm not sure you could do a multiple upload with a drag-and-drop type control. You could do multiple file selects and that sort of thing, but I don't know that there's a mass file select option in flash. I could be wrong as I have just brushed the surface of the new file controls in flash.

RE: Multiple file upload - flash forms?
You can have multiple file selects within Flash. Of course you have to select them all at the same time, so they need to be within the same folder. What you want to do isn't too difficult as these features are built in to Flash 8... specifically for this purpose.

RE: Multiple file upload - flash forms?
Wouldnt you still have to worry about timeouts? I've done multiple file uploads without java or activeX but I've also always limited the number of files that can be uploaded at a time rather than setting the timeout to some ridiculously high number. This sounds like a dumb question (even as I'm thinking it) but would posting the data asynchronously through Ajax still timeout? I havent written any uploaders in Ajax yet. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.
