Replacing Valums Ajax Upload with Blueimp jQuery Upload #8

Closed spencerthayer closed 12 years ago

The BlueImp jQuery upload script is superior to the Valums uploader because it allows the user to ignore the PHP.ini file size limitations. This means in a production and file sharing environment large file sizes are never going to be an issue. More over Blueimp allows resuming file uploads incase something interferes with transfer.

Would it be easy to swap scripts?

Blueimp looks awesome! Unfortunately, I'm probably not going to be able to replace the core upload functionality yet - I did have to customize the Valum's uploader somewhat to get it working as a CakePHP controller, and I don't think I am going to be able to do the same for Blueimp, at least in the near-term.

If you have experience with this, you are definitely welcome to fork this project - if you get a working version and would like to merge it with this, please do send a Pull Request and I would be happy to merge a working version.

Thanks for your feedback though! Highly appreciated!
