$_POST is not being set correctly in PHP about jquery-filedrop HOT 6 CLOSED

I don't have PHP so I can't test. I made this work with Python though.

Could you try messing with the boundary variable on line 176?
boundary = '------multipartformboundary' + (new Date).getTime(),

Perhaps PHP is expecting something different.

from jquery-filedrop.

perhaps try replacing line 176 with
boundary = '--PHP-MIX--' + (new Date).getTime(),

let me know if that works for u

from jquery-filedrop.

I got PHP working by changing line 191 to:

xhr.sendAsBinary('Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary='+boundary+'\r\nContent-Length: '+builder.length+'\r\n\r\n'+builder);

Using that fix, you can use the $_FILES array in PHP.

Also changed line 81 to:

builder += crlf+crlf;

in order to get other variables to transfer correctly.

Thanks for the update sahl, $_POST and $_FILES are set correctly with your change.
Now that it is working there appears to be another problem. If I drag more than about 4 large files (about 1-2 meg each), the script fails on line 177:
builder = getBuilder(file.name, e.target.result, boundary);
with a console message 'file is not defined'.
There is a similar problem when using the script from http://www.thecssninja.com/javascript/fileapi, so I expect it is a Firefox issue. I am using v3.6.10

from jquery-filedrop.

Tried dragging 8 files, with sizes up to 5+ MB, and encountered no problems, also using Firefox 3.6.10 (windows). Maybe a permission problem on the file itself?
