Hello Anders Mad.,
The File API module is available under FireFox, Safari and Chrome browsers. Its precedence is after Silverlight. Here is the file API module in short:
Features:
- Multiple file upload
- Stand alone progress monitoring (No http module used!)
- Support for the same events as the other modules
- Upload cancellation
- Upload files via chunks, effectively walking around the ASP.NET max files size limitation.
Limitations:
- No file filtering, i.e. it is not possible to filter the select files dialog with the allowed extensions, because the latter functionality is not yet implemented by any browser. This is the only disadvantage of File API compared to Silverlight.
Browser support: FF 3.6 +, Google Chrome, Safari 5
We will add drag and drop capabilities for Q2 Service Pack 1.
Regards,
Genady Sergeev
