Image Uploader Java Version: Upload Issues

I am trying to setup a java version of the imageuploader and I am having troubles running it on my webserver.

I have got the java uplaod tool working in the web browser, but when I click on the start button to upload the images, nothing happens.

If I run the file index.htm opening it with a browser on the file system it appears to work fine (I get the uploading progress bar etc), but if I try and run it via my website eg http://localhost/upload/index.htm, which is the same physical page when I click the start button, the start button becomes disabled and nothing else happens.

I have used the code exactly as the cold fusion demo in the documentation, but yet it will not run when run from the web, only when run from the file system.

Any tips/help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Chris

Thanks for the reply, I had a play on a few other computers it was something wrong with the Java on that computer, so that issue is fixed.

But now I have another issue, this time with a individual PC.

It is working fine on all others I have tested.

Starts uploading fine.

Shows demo warning, click OK to that

Java locks up, and unable to do anything more from here, have to close browser.

Attached is the code from the java console. The machine is running XP SP1.

Seems strnage that 90% of the upload controls works with that version of java.

Are there any plans to include checking of the java versions to ensure it will work with that particular version?

Thanks

Chris.

Thanks, I understand your reasons for using that version of java, but my question was.

Are you going to add any detection code to the applet to inform people of thier version of java is not fully compatable with the uploader?

Thanks

Chris

I was thinking something within the java control which if the java version is too old then provide them wiith details of how to update/links etc.

As currently it appears to work fine but when the upload happens that is when issues occur which is a little mis-leading. I think it would be better to stop them even seeing the upload control if their java version is not compatable.

Thanks

Chris.
