jqUploader
If you came looking for my jquery plugin jqUploader, which allows to enhance the UI for html form-based file upload with a progress indicator (bar and percentage), the dedicated page is here: file upload with progress bar: jquploader

First of all–great idea. But I’ve tested your demo page on Firefox 2.0.0.12 and 3.0beta3 on Ubuntu and it doesn’t work properly. The browser is hanging completely inactive until the upload process ends. Then the browser shows upload summary. But no progress bar is visible when uploading. So I’ll wait for ver. 2.x
hi Godric!
Indeed, i’ve heard there are issues with the linux version of the flash player. but i’ll make sure to test on linux for v2. thanks for the head up!
Hi… I wanted to download and give your plugin a try, but the download link seems to be broken. Hope you can fix this soon. Cheers!
Strange… It is fixed now, thanks !
Hello, I have been trying your jqUploader script with jquery-1.3.2.min.js and it isn't working. The swf uploader doesn't show up. I am certain that this is the problem because even with the demo.html that comes with the downloaded package all I need to do is change the line
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.2.1.min.js"></script>
for
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
and thats it, the uploader doesn't show. Is there a way to fix this?
This is quite an urgent matter, thanks in advance.
Hi Edwin, i’ve sent you an update for you to test. Let me know if it works ok for you and if so, i’ll put the updated script online.

Hi Pixeline,
I've been using your uploader for a couple years and this week it stopped working – but only on Mac OS X 10.6.2 with Firefox (3.5.8). It still works on my pc with firefox and explorer, it works on Safari on OSX 10.6.2. It works in fine in firefox and safari on OS X 10.4.1 as well. So, in short, I'm pretty sure it has to do with OS X 10.6.2 or firefox's build for that OS. Have any ideas on what I should do?
Hi Pixeline,
Just to continue – what happens in Firefox 3.5.8 on OS X 10.6 is that you can browse for a file, then choose the file, then all the in the flash object become unresponsive. Nothing further happens when you click either the browse button or the upload button.
You can see this behavior right on your demo page – so I know its not my particular installation.
More on the same topic – not only does the jqUploader no longer work after the first time "browse" is clicked – flash itself is unresponsive afterwards. Flash buttons on other sites stop working until the Firefox is quit and restarted.
Also, Firefox updated my to 3.6 today, and the results are the same.
thanks for the details Todd. I'm really out of time to check the issue. The plugin is getting quite old. I suggest you use uploadify instead of waiting for an hypothetical constructive action on my side

Okay, totally understood. I didn't know about uploadify, thanks for hippin me to it
Hello.
First I would like to say thanks for this Upload script. It's easy to understand and easy to implement.
I'm wondering, will there be any update to it? Because jQuery is now 1.4.2 and this script doesn't support it. I tried also to include both script files, make then .noConflict(true), but it still doesn't work properly.
Yes, I read that you suggest now Uploadify, but I (and probably some other people) don't like that.
I want simple upload script.
Any response will be appreciated.
Thanks.
