New in version 2.1.
We made only new feature - Images preview before uploading. Thumbnails Viewer flash plug-in reads images at client side. Users also can crop, resize and rotate images and upload new images to the server.
You don't need to update previouse 2.0 version if you will not use thumbnails preview.
Attention for customers of MultiPowUpload version before 1.8
After version 10 Flash player due to security reasons doesn't allow to show file Browse() dialog from Java Script.
So it is impossible to make 100% clear HTML + Java Script Interface.
Workaround: MultiPowUpload allows to show only Browse flash button.
If user clicks on it he see file browse dialog. You can make custom HTML interface
for files list, all other buttons etc.
Please download version 1.8 or latest 2.1 version and see new sample with Flash 10 workaround.
MultiPowUpload is easy client-side solution
that can be used to perform file uploads from a user machine
to the web server. MultiPowUpload is a Macromedia Flash movie supported by most

any standard file upload script on server side.

Classic Form-based upload disadvantages:
In a pure-HTML solution, client files can be uploaded to the server via a
multipart/form-data form with one or more <INPUT TYPE=FILE> items on it.
However, the form-based approach has the following limitation:
-
The "Choose File" dialog shown by a browser does not allow multiple
selections.
-
To upload multiple files at once, the HTML form must contain
multiple <INPUT TYPE=FILE> boxes, and each file must be selected
individually.
-
An entire folder cannot be selected for uploading.
-
There is no way to specify file filters to be displayed in the Files of Type
box of the "Choose File" dialog.
-
There is no way to put a limit on the type, size and number of files being
uploaded before an upload begins.
-
File date information cannot be preserved.
-
There is no progress state information while upload.
