Flash Multiple File Upload Widget Preview Part II
I've been working on the Flash Multiple File Upload Widget - I think it's really getting there now that I've added in a few neat features. Here is an updated screenshot.
I'm learning a lot of advanced flash on this project; I had no idea what a CellRenderer class was just a few days ago. If I know it can be done, and I want it done bad enough, I'll bloody well keep at it until I get it done.
I managed to get the file type icons loading dynamically and I just had to put in the per-file progress bar (I was up till 3.30am last night at that).
Dan and I have agreed a final list of changes to make to this before we release it to the world. Here are the remaining work items:
- Allow per-file callback through variable jsOnFileUpload(success,fileNo,fileName)
- Allow user to set the nameConflict - default is "overwrite"
- Put the stylish per-file progress bar at the bottom of the control - dump the built-in one
- Change footer text to something like "Uploading file 1 of 20, Upload Rate: 20KB/s"
- Allow user to turn on/off the size column through showSizeColumn="no"
- Prevent duplicate selection for uploading of the same file
- Add and implement maxTotalFileSize limit
- Put striped background colours in
- Change style on header of columns to glass effect, if thats possible
- Put icons in for the buttons
- Fix the sorting of the columns
- implement stopOnError="yes"
Since I'm doing the Flash programming, Dan has agreed to make a masterpiece of the packaging and marketing of this baby. I'm hoping this baby will sell like cupcakes.
Now back to it...
