Does anyone know the file size limitation of flex file uploader?
Currently I'm working on a project that uses flex and cake php. I heard that there is a 1GB of file size limitation in flex file uploader.
I've been scouring the web to find a tutorial on how to implement a flex uploader, but didn't find any :(
Some tutorials just give the code and doesn't explain how to use them(sorry, i'm a newbie to flex)
can u geeks suggest some good tutorials?
Initially I had a 2039 error I resolved this by using a local testing server, which resulted in a 2038 error. So then I hard coded the url and now I dont get any errors but the file doesnt upload.
Instead a file is created (FileUpload.cs) in the directory where the files should be.
Does anyone know what this FileUpload.cs file is?
I am using the ExternalInterface on Flex 3. We are actually using flex to compress a large amount of DOM data, so this is specifically being used with LARGE data. To further investigate, if there is a limitation, is this universal? (IE. Silverlight) First, let me state that this is being done with an application that was made by inexperienced software engineers. This is an app that we need to buy time by compressing the data so that we can build a long-term solution. We have no other options, unfortunately. Background: This is an application that is actually a web-spreadsheet. Our long term solution is to make a Office Business Application.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to integrate a JavaScript multiple file uploader into a website. I've worked with Uploadify before and wanted to go with that. The difference in this case was that I needed to allow a large number of files in the upload queue (up to 500).
Everything works fine in Firefox, IE6-9 and Safari. Except for Chrome, where when selecting more than 232 files at once (using the Flash file select dialog) it doesn't do anything (the file select event is not triggered for the JS script to capture).
At first I thought it was an Uploadify bug, and decided to try Plupload as an alternative. Problem is that I hit the same dead end with the Flash version of Plupload, it just won't do anything when selecting more than 232 files at once.
Is this a known Flash Player limitation/bug in Chrome?
I am gonna make my own flash file-uploader, but I can't find any good materials. how to make a simple flash uploader.
View 1 RepliesI am making a file uploader but it is giving me this error: "Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2039: Invalid remote URL protocol. The remote URL protocol must be HTTP or HTTPS."
but on a server it seems to work (the progress listener shows the files are being loaded [use the scrollbuttons or scroll over the text area]), until all is done and the files dont appear on the server.
Below is all my code. I hope someone can help me through this, it is really important atm. I've tried some tutorials and sources but can't find the error.

I'm trying to find something that will let users upload multiple files to a website. The requirements are that it let them easily select multiple files (preferably with something like check boxes) and that it displays a preview of the images they select.
I'd prefer to only use Javascript or Flash if possible, but Java is also an option (this needs to work on platforms where Silverlight isn't available). So far all I've been able to find are things that use the native file selector (which doesn't show previews on Windows, and makes it unclear that you can select multiple by holding ctrl). I'm not sure if the preview requirement is even possible, but it's the most important.
I have flash CS3 and CS4. basically I have made a class file in AS3, which can upload file from user machine with PHP. Now, as of my project requirement, I need to check the PHP return statement while uploading is in process or after uploading complete. So is it possible to check PHP return values, while uploading from Flash CS3 or CS4????
View 1 RepliesIm looking for a jquery or ajax file uploader, Im currently using the FancyUploader which worked great until Flash brought out their update making all flash progress bars absolete, now whenever I try to upload large files... it will fill the progress bar to 100% in a matter of seconds even though the actual upload finished minutes after. So im now looking for a new uploading script that DOESNT require flash but can still display the progress.
View 4 RepliesI'm trying to make a flash uploader. The issue however that has me stumped the uploader doesn't seem to be calling the php file. I'm watching in httpfox and its dosen't seem to be calling any file. Yet it appears to be uploading. It never actually uploads anything but it acts normally I don't get any errors I check the logs I don't see any issues in the logs. I have an html uploader that works fine. What else is there to check?! BTW this is on a server with self assigned cert I know there are issues with that but wouldn't it complain instead of not doing anything?
View 1 RepliesI'm using YUI file uploader based on flash, and the flash requests host/crossdomain.xml file. I'm requesting localhost and it requires this file. I was using this before and I have never had this problem and I've never had this file on my server.I've never used any adobe technologies, could please anybody tell me if it is possible to turn it off somehow ?The problem is that I can't have the file on my server, at least at root location...
View 2 Repliesi'm trying to create a multiple file uploader using FileReference. The user should be able to select more than one file but i don't want to use FileReferenceList for this. So instead the user opens the Browse dialog, picks a file then opens up the Browse dialog again, picks another file etc.
To make this work i'm trying to copy the FileReference object into an array, but this isn't really working. Here's how i do it:
fileref.as
import flash.net.FileReference;
class fileref { public var fileRef:FileReference;// = new FileReference();}
[Code].....
And how can i make it so, that i can add multiple files..??
Could someone point me in the direction of a good tutorial of how to make an actionscript 3 file uploader? I think you would have to use a server-side script like php to?

Code:
Select allSystem.security.allowDomain("http://localhost/");
//import the FileReference Object
import flash.net.FileReference;
//initial settings - since no upload file type selet yet user cannot upload a file
uploadButn.enabled = false;
//create a new FileReference object
var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();

I have given a folder called uploads on the server and that is where files are supposed to come. Also I have given the correct name of php file which is upload.php in the fileRef.upload But its not working.
I want to create a site with a multiple file uploading through a singe button. And as I'm very new to the world of Web-Based Scripts
View 1 RepliesI just read that adobe flash put a limitation on movie clip size to 2700 px widht or lenght...
Is that true ?
Apparently, this decision (if true) was made to limit movie clip size and time to load....
Since Flash cannot keep formating, I am building "text documents" in Adobe InDesign, then export it in .swf...
Some of my .swf are longer than 2700 px.....
So, if the limitation is true, is there a way to bypass that limitation.... ?
When I preview my flash file it says that the filesize is 29kb. However when I look at the properties of the outputted swf it's coming in a t 36kb. Which is the correct size? Also what extra information is being added to push it up by 7kb?

View 3 RepliesI am using Flex Builder 3. Even for a small project, my exported .air file's size is around 400k. Is it because of all the Flex libraries being compiled into my application. I wanted to know if it is possible to remove the libraries that I don't use.
What are libraries like "qtp.swc" and the "automation" libraries?
i'm using swfloader to load swf file in the middle of the screen using the following command:

now stage of the flash file takes the exact size that i stated by the flash file itself is overlapping the stage with some graphics
Is there any "mainstream" library used for this purpose? Commonly spread, well maintained, documented etc.I found these (using flash):
Uploadify - not many releases, latest 12/2010, no documentation (!)
SWFUpload - latest release 03/2010, documentation
fancyupload - looks buggy.
phpfileuploader - looks heavyweight, and looks commercial (?) I cannot read the licence (you can download it but are you allowed to use it forever without paying?) plupload New version of pure javascript (no flash) Valums' ajax upload claims to handle file size limit and progress bar, which is quite suspicious to me: these features require to guess the file size before the upload, which seems impossible in javascript (look also here). Or can it work?
