    Question Uploading

    I'm wondering if this is possible with AS3 and Flash CS4. Is there a way to have the user select and image file, resize it client-side, then send that data to my server? I know how to upload an image with Flash and resize it server-side, but it would dramatically decrease the upload time and bandwidth usage if it could be resized BEFORE the upload.

    Is there a way to send bytes of information instead of an actual file?
    Thanks for any help with this!

    Thumbs up

    sstalder, thanks for that link! That helped a ton. I got everything working exactly the way I wanted! The only thing I would like to add is a progress bar for the upload transfer.

    Does anyone have any ideas how to acheive this using a url-request and PHP? It doesn't work like Filereference by invoking the progress handler.
