readAsBinaryString deprecated #17

Closed ebi closed 10 years ago

ebi commented 10 years ago

The readAsBinaryString method has been deprecated from the standard and apparently Microsoft removed it from IE10+.

bgrins commented 10 years ago

Ah, thanks for the info. The spec agrees: http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/FileAPI/#reading-a-file. So we need to remove it from the docs and choose a new default read method. Probably data URL or array buffer.

OK, I've removed readAsBinaryString from the docs and made the default readAsDataURL
