FancyUpload - Swiff meets Ajax (v3.0)
Swiff meets Ajax for powerful and elegant uploads.
FancyUpload is a file-input replacement which features an unobtrusive, multiple-file selection
menu and queued upload with an animated progress bar. It is easy to setup, is server independent,
completely styleable via CSS and XHTML and uses MooTools to work in all modern browsers.
Showcase “Attach a File”
A reduced and snappier interface (preview).
The Action Happens Here
Experimental interface preview, not fully tested yet. Inspired by a real-world usage, used in a well-known web-application. Imagine it wrapped in a form to compose e-mails …
Enabled Validations
- Selectable file-size is limited to 2 MB
What will happen?
- Selecting multiple files
- Instant start
- All files start at once (no queued upload)
- Cancel and remove single file
- Validate size
