Hello All,

I’m developing an Uploader component, for free use in your website or blog. I’m using Adobe flex builder 3 for it, so the final result will be an swf you can simply embed in your real life website.

Well, this is not a release note, just an update.

I have completely changed the way you will configure the uploader. It used to be a couple fo JavaScript predefined function you should have used. I changed it to an XML config file, it has all of the parameters I could think of.

I’m pasting the xml straight from the development environment, its really important to me to hear what you have to say, I want it to be as user friendly as possible.

Please, if you think I should add another param or whatever, please drop me an email or send a contact through the contact page.

Here’s the xml

   1: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
   2: <uploaderConfig>
   3:     <!--
   4:         Should be: http://www.your_domain.com/your_script.aspx/php/whatever :-) 
   5:     -->
   6:     <uploadScriptUrl></uploadScriptUrl>
   7:     <!--
   8:         Should be javascript funcion that gets a single param like so: progressEvent(progress)
   9:         You can display this to the user, or do other things you want.
  10:     -->
  11:     <progressEventListner></progressEventListner>
  12:     <!--
  13:         Same as before, javascript function that gets a single param > Error Message
  14:         errorListner(errorMessage)
  15:     -->
  16:     <errorListner></errorListner>
  17:     <!--
  18:         What do you want your users to upload?
  19:         jpg;mpg;wmv;flv
  20:         all other file types you want type here will be disregarded and an error will be raised.
  21:     -->
  22:     <fileTypeAllowed></fileTypeAllowed>
  23:     <!--
  24:         This is when i make your life easier.
  25:         You can pass me the file size in KB, the flex handles the translation to bytes :-)
  26:         How?... like so:
  27:         KB:250
  28:         Please do not use a double.decimal the, thoug you won't get en Error the flex simply will disregard this
  29:     -->
  30:     <fileSizeAllowed></fileSizeAllowed>
  31:     <!--
  32:         Javascript function for displaying the message to the user
  33:     -->
  34:     <completeListner></completeListner>
  35: </uploaderConfig>

You can also download the file from here: download id=”1”

This is what the uploader looks like, I tried keeping it A.S.A.P (as simple as possible :-) )
