Html entities in ONSUBMIT and ONSUBMITTING..

>>>> Also it tries to upload files right after the users select the files.

That is a parameter. You can turn it off so it does not upload the files until you submit.


>>>>The forms class already has a form upload progress custom input that shows a progress bar, but it relies on a PHP extension available on the server.

I tried that but it does not work in my server because it needs php 5.2 (and I have 5.1.6)




>>>If you have a Flash applet that can work like that, or could work like that with some additional work, it would be interesting if you could share it.

I think the swfupload componen could be adapted. I wouldn't do it all within flash because that would be very hard for the end user to customize (the graphical part), the swfupload approach is better for this scenario because it can be easily customized. It works OK, but you have to tweak the code a little for it to work exactly as you want.

If you want I can help you integrating it, but I need to finish the project I am doing right now first because I am behind the deadline.

I have no idea how to rebuild the Flash source archives so I can try tweaking them as needed.

Anyway, it would be great if could build a Flash component using PHP Ming extension.

I am working on a custom Flash video player using the PHP Ming extension to generate the SWF component statically. I don't know if it is possible to build a Flash upload component using Ming too.
