| YUI Library - Uploader - Release Notes |
| |
| 2.6.0 |
| * Changes due to new security rules in Flash Player 10: |
| * Browse() function has been eliminated; the uploader now has to have an internal Flash UI. |
| * The Uploader can be rendered as a transparent Flash layer, or as a skinned button. |
| * Mouse events on the Uploader are exposed to JavaScript. |
| |
| * Known issues: |
| * The intended behavior of the uploader is not to send any cookies with its requests. Due to a limitation |
| of the Windows networking library, when running in IE, the uploader sends the cookies with the upload. |
| However, you cannot rely on this behavior for authentication, because it's absent in other browsers. |
| As a workaround, we suggest either using a cookieless upload method or appending document.cookie |
| to the upload request. |
| * There are some known issues around keyboard interaction with the uploader. In particular, when the |
| uploader is rendered as a transparent layer, it does not respond to keyboard presses - only mouse |
| functionality is available. When the uploader is rendered as an image, it receives "Space" and "Enter" |
| key presses as triggers, but only if the focus is on the uploader component itself. Keyboard tabbing |
| to the component behaves differently in different browsers. |
| * Because of Flash limitations, the uploader does not support basic authentication. |
| * Because of Flash limitations, the uploader behavior when working through a proxy server is inconsistent |
| and unreliable. |
| * When uploading to HTTPS servers, be aware that Flash does not support self-signed certificates. You |
| would need to obtain certificates from a recognized certificate authority. |
| |
| 2.5.1 |
| * Fix to ensure UploadCancel fires when expected. |
| |
| 2.5.0 |
| * Experimental release |
