What a coinsidnese!
Just yesterday I've started working on a "multi upload" module for 4images, and so far its working fine, the only problem I have at the moment is the
JUpload applet I'm using, its so buggy that I had to do work around almost every feature I wanted to use...
My module can be easily adopted to other java uploaders, so maybe we could work out something here
These are the features of a java applet that I'd like to see:
1) the applet can send additional form along with the images to the server
2) accesible parameters via javascript:
- when files added/removed (this needed in order for javascript add additional fields for these new files into the form)
- which file(s) selected in the list (this needed in order to show additional fields, such as image name, description, keywords, etc), This feature is not available in JUpload so I had to print all these fealds for each file at the same time - its a mess...
3) applet can retreve server responce and either print the result somewhere or let JS handle it (prefereble), if not, then atleast redirect to a result page.
These are the most important features I'd like to see in the applet, other such as filters for filesize, image dimentions, file types, total size, multilanguage support (can be done with <param>), etc, these are optional...
So, maybe we can work out something here, people have been requesting multiupload for ages now...
