I saw a couple of messages about this topic, but I still haven't found how to make Fine Uploader use thumbnails generated by the server for the Initial File List files.
I use a "traditional" server-side Fine Uploader implementation, for pictures upload, as described in the Getting Started section. But I also want to use Fine Uploader as a gallery to show already uploaded pictures, so I use the "session" config to populate it, when it loads...
This works, but Fine Uploader creates Base64 images for those already uploaded images, even if I return a thumbnailUrl property for each of them, pointing to already resized thumbnails... Indeed, when I upload pictures, I generate thumbnails on the server, by myself. I want Fine Uploader to display those thumbnails when the "Initial File List" is received. How can I achieve this?
I've read about the drawThumbnail() function, but I don't know exactly how to use it. Should I call it manually in the onSessionRequestComplete event? Will that prevent Fine Uploader to create Base64 thumbnails by itself?

I work on a Saas project where users can submit/upload items.
I want to create a similar work-flow like Youtube.
This means that the user uploads image file, ZIP files etc. which then show in the upload progress block, during this time I want the user to be able to edit the other informations like tags, text description, price for item etc.
At Youtube a user can upload a video file and edit all other things during the upload, he can even leave the page and the upload continues in the background.
But in my project whenever a user uploads a file these fields can not be edited properly or get removed again after the upload is successful.
Please point me to a solution how this works/how Youtube et al approached this.
Thanks.
I think you should do this with javascript features
Like sending a file with ajax in laravel and php.
By doing this, you can still access the elements inside your web page.
I'm using WordPress 3.5 and trying to figure out how can I edit an image by clicking on it to get to the media uploader thickbox.
What I found out so far
The URL below work fine but I need to EDIT a special image, not add one. I have an attachment ID.
/wp-admin/media-upload.php?post_id=1&type=image&TB_iframe=1&width=640&height=553
To make the thickbox work I need to add the classes info thickbox.
Question
I found many articles on how to upload images but not how to edit them. Maybe I can just add some get variale to get it to work?
I'm running a Vanilla Forum with a FileUpload plugin, allowing users to upload images and insert the corresponding code directly into the body of their post. These images work with FancyBox when clicked, linking together nicely within the page. However, should a user use a third-party image hosting site (i.e. Imagevenue, Imageshack, Postimage.org) and copy and paste the resulting image code, it deactivates the FancyBox feature associated with all images previously on the page, so when you click on an image uploaded via FileUpload it opens in a new window now instead of in a FancyBox.
My question is one of two things:
a) Is it possible to fix this formatting issue so that if a user does choose to use a third-party image hosting service then it will not affect the fancybox of my previous images.
or
b) Is it possible to block this type of image code from being inputted in the body of a post to prevent this from ever happening.
Thank you and please reply if you would like more information!
Most likely the generated code from those third-party hosting sites has not an image extension (JPG, PNG, GIF) so fancybox doesn't know what type of content needs to handle.
If you are binding fancybox like
$(".fancybox").fancybox();
... you could force the type of content to image like
$(".fancybox").fancybox({
type : "image"
});
I don't really see how pasting the code of a new image will disable the code for existing ones if you want to elaborate.
I have a problem with images in my web app. let say I have a form where there are some text fields, dropdowns, upload ajax control for multiple image upload and button Save.
I know how to upload images and posting a form and saving everything to database but the problem is that I want to achieve the following user experience:
User can upload multiple images and browser after successful upload shows thumbnail (this I know how to do it)...the problem here is that I do not want to save images to db before button save is pressed. Is there any convinient how to save temporary images...I have tried temp table which after button is pressed, copies all images to image table but here is browser refresh problem that looses all the data and images stay in a temp table. Can you use a session for storing temporary images or any other way (I think session is not particulary good idea for such things.)
One easy way to achieve that is to use the HTML5 File API and display a thumbnail once the user selects a file to upload. You don't even need to waste bandwidth as everything happens on the client. Once the user submits the form, then the image will be uploaded to the server.
Another possibility is to use one of the gazillions of available AJAX upload controls such as Uploadify, Valums Ajax Upload, Uploadify, the jQuery form plugin, ... which will allow you to upload the file to the server using an AJAX request so that you can resize it there and return the resized image to the client that you could display the thumbnail on the client.
I'm developing a JSF application which has an image upload function. I'd like to display the uploaded image. The uploading works fine but when I delete the uploaded picture and upload a new one, the old one is displayed in the browser. I typed the link of the picture in the browser but I sill get the old one. I use the same file name and I would not like to change it. How could I refresh it. (without Javascript). I'm using Glassfish Server. (Redeplyoing the application I get the new picture but it isn't a solution for an online system ;))
Thank you.
Redeplyoing the application I get the new picture
Don't store it in the deploy folder by getRealPath() and consorts. Store it outside the deploy folder.
