bertsmilsky Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Q: What is the best way to upload multiple large images quickly? SERVER SIDE - PHP AND AJAX I have found a php and ajax script called Fancy Upload which uploads multiple images and this has been great if those using the cms know how to resize images before they upload them. However, when dealing with large images the upload takes ages as the image has to be uploaded before it is resized on the server side. Therefore i am looking for a client side solution that can resize and upload multiple large images quickly without losing image quality. CLIENT SIDE - JAVA APPLETS / JAVASCRIPT My research has led me to experimenting with java applets. Is this the best route to take? Also are there any applets that let you specify dimesions of the images, and other parameters (name) before you upload them, without charging? Can javascript do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/116958-upload-multiple-images-with-client-side-resize/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonInflux Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 http://fotoflexer.com/ I believe they use AJAX for their image manipulation. Java is all very good, but I personally dislike java, because it seems to slow the browser a lot :/ and at the end of the day, if you can use AJAX, you're probably saving some memory space anyway. ---------------- Now playing: Enter Shikari - OK, Time For Plan B via FoxyTunes Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/116958-upload-multiple-images-with-client-side-resize/#findComment-601453 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonLewis Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I'm pretty sure Photo Bucket uses/used AJAX for their upload. For the client side manipulation (before upload), I wouldn't really have any idea where to start. Never used Java so I can't help you out there.
