Hello,
I'm just getting with SWFUpload. It is exactly what I'm looking for and looks fantastic. Thank you and keep up the good work!!
I'm working on a "hello world" example with SWFUpload so I can get my feet wet with the API. It's been going OK, except that I do my development on Linux and I think I'm having some problems/issues with Linux.
1. I'm guessing the file_post_name setting controls specifies the name of the file that is posted to the server. However, for the documentation for the setFilePostName method says "The Linux Flash Player ignores this setting." So, if the Linux Flash player ignores this setting, under what form name is the uploaded file posted? Is it completely unable to set be set on the Linux Flash player?
2. The file upload itself is very random on my Linux box. My "hello world" page just has a button that calls selectFiles(), and then another button that calls startUpload(). Clicking the button to call startUpload() only works about 1 in 20 times; most time nothing seems to happen, but after fiddling around with picking a file and then clicking Start Upoad, it will all of a sudden randomly work and upload the file, then won't work for a while.
My environment is Kubuntu 7.10, Adobe Flash player 9.0r48 (I think, does that sound right?)_and Firefox 2.0.0.6. I'm using SWFUpload 2.1 Beta, which i think was the one available on the download site last night when I downloaded it.
Thank you for your help and keep up the great work on SWFUpload!!

OK, I figured out the upload
OK, I figured out the upload problem on Linux and I see that the default name is "Filedata". Thanks!!!
