Now I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a huge Flash advocate. I don't like it for a lot of reasons:

  1. It's heavy
  2. It's not standard
  3. A lot of older browsers don't support it.

But guys, I think I fell in love:

SWFUpload is one of the nicer Flash applications out there and it's good because it has a few features that ordinary HTML uploads can't give you. A progress bar. That is one of the main features lacking with HTML uploads. You can also upload multiple files simultaneosly. And I must say, it's pretty.

So much for the user end. You'd think this thing takes a lot of back-end code. Nope.

HTML:
  1. <script type="text/javascript">
  2.  
  3.     mmSWFUpload.init({
  4.         upload_backend : "../../upload.php",
  5.         target : "SWFUpload",
  6.     });
  7.  
  8. </script>

Yep, that's it. Have fun
