Question

Uploading multiple large files

I am going to have a need to upload large files to the server, 25meg, 50meg. It's within an Intranet, so bandwidth is plentyfull, therefore speed of upload would not be a big issue.

However, there could potentially be multiple files.

I'm wondering if anybody has any suggestions on performing this? I don't want to spend weeks on code but some sort of 3rd party plug in would be ideal, something that would give me a progress bar, maybe even compress the files first on the client side would be even better.

I have previously developed a site using the Aurigma image uploader, which is the same image uploader used by facebook, and it did a similar job, but only for images ( http://www.aurigma.com/Products/ImageUploader/default.aspx ). This gave an ActiveX and Java component which once you understood it took minutes to integrate

I need something like this, powerful, but not insanely complex to integrate.

Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks

Mark

Mark,

There are a few of projects that might suit you on RIAforge.com:

CFMU (Flex front-end, CF back-end -- this one 'looks' like the best option):

http://cfmu.riaforge.org/

Multifile Upload (Flash/Flex):

http://multifileupload.riaforge.org/

Upload Form CFC:

http://uploadFormCFC.riaforge.org/

Looks like one of these should do the trick!

Cheers,

Craig

Hi Craig,

Thanks for the urls. The 2nd one http://multifileupload.riaforge.org/ looks like a winner

I tried their demo and it worked very well, I'll try it locally and see how it works out.

FYI the last one http://uploadFormCFC.riaforge.org/ might be out of date, if you click on the demo link it does not work and it looks like it's not been updated since 2007, just thought you'd like to know

Many thanks you saved me a ton of time!
