SWFUpload v2.5.0 Beta 2 Released
January 24, 2010 - 7:38pm — gyphieWe are happy to release SWFUpload v2.5.0 Beta 2.
This fixes a good number of the bugs identified in Beta 1:
Fixed issue loading in Chrome
Fixed Hand Cursor when no button image provided
Added event when resizing starts
Fixed issue encoding parameters
Integrated swfobject into core class
-- This adds SWFUpload.onload for using swfobject's DOM Ready Load support
-- Also adds preload and load failed events
Fixed support for Flash Player 9
-- There are now 2 swf files (swfupload.swf and swfupload_fp9.swf
-- New flash9_url setting required for Flash 9 support
-- If you do not need image resizing support you can use swfupload_fp9.swf for both Flash 9 and 10. Set the flash_url and flash9_url, both, to "swfupload_fp9.swf"
-- Improvements to browser zoom support. The Button Image now require the 4 sprites (in previous versions you could get away with only 3 sprites)
-- Fixed null byte issue in serverData (rare bug)
-- Added resize option to prevent small image being resized to a larger size
-- Remove External Interface reconnecting (too many timers and External Interface calls with little benefit).
There are still some outstanding Mac and Linux platform issues but that will probably always be the case due to the severity of the bugs in the Flash Player on those platforms.

SWFUpload v2.5.0 Beta 1 Released
December 24, 2009 - 9:52pm — gyphieMerry Christmas!
We are happy to release SWFUpload v2.5.0 Beta 1. The image resizing has been improved. Especially memory usage. All the proper events have been implemented and it seems to be working great for us. Hopefully it'll work great for you too!
A few other changes have been implemented as well. We've added more mouse events to be piped out of Flash to JavaScript. These include over, out, and click. They are handled the same way as other SWFUpload events.
Demos are online at http://demo.swfupload.org/v250beta1/

November 4, 2009 - 11:32am — gyphieSWFUpload v2.5.0 Alpha has been released and is available for download.
ALPHA means untested experimental code We release this code hoping that you will help us find the bugs in the features and that we can have good production ready code when we release the final v2.5.0 code

SWFUpload v2.2.0 Beta 5 Released
January 29, 2009 - 3:46pm — gyphieSWFUpload v2.2.0 Beta 5 has been released and is available for download.
Changes in this beta:
- uploadSuccess now fires even if no data is returned from the server
- Added the Speed Plugin
- Added the Speed Demo
The big fix here is removing the requirement of having the server return some data after the upload is complete. This problem had plagued SWFUpload for some time. Hopefully we've seen the last of it. This should improve some issues on the Mac Flash Player and make interfacing with services like Amazon's S3 easier.
The demos have been updated to take advantage of the new functionality. The latest down is available at the GoogleCode Project Site.
