Question

AS3 upload = waste of time .... a call out to kglad and other legends

I have updgraded my file upload from AS2 to AS3.. only to find out that AS3 upload only works on internet explorer.

Why develop AS3 file upload when it is inferiror to AS2?...

there were bugs to get file upload to work on firefox in AS2.. eg.. you must append session data to the url of your php upload script within your AS... but it worked...

infact why even bother having this as a facility on flash if it only works on one type of browser?...

I have looked in all the forums and everyone else that has this problem but no solutions have been offered...

this is a call to kglad and the other legends on this forum is there a way to use AS3 upload files, becuase if you dont know i say it is not possible?... please help, thanks Jonathan.

Hey Kglad.. firstly thanks for replying to my call !!

My script works fine on explorer.

However I am getting this error for firefox:

error: [IOErrorEventType="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error#2038"]

I know that with AS2 and firefox there were issues with the passing variables to the php upload script...

however i have tried this upload without the need to pass any vars to the upload script and im still getting this error in AS3 on firefox...

cheers J.
