I also have this question

I'm using AMU with PHP to upload images and store the filename in a MySQL database. In Dreamweaver CS5, I followed the video tutorial and it worked as described. I did not include any login security on the page ( a problem in other posts ).

Everything works in Chrome (v 14.0.835.202 m) and Firefox (v 7.0.1), but just hangs there in Internet Explorer (v 9.0.8112.16421).

Isn't this supposed to work with IE? Anything I can do?

Thank you.

Click the compatability button at the top of the IE browser and it fixed it for me :-)

Hi Ted Matson.

George Petrov found solution of the problem:

QuoteHi All,

After a very, very extensive and long investigation it turned out that it is working fine in all browsers but IE9.

It was very difficult to find because most of our sites are using the Active Content flash embedding and that made the Multi Uploader also work fine in IE9!

However with regular <OBJECT> embed that the latest versions of Dreamweamweaer use and also it was used by the Advanced Multi Uploader - IE9 broke ... because of the mixure of OBJECT/EMBED tag.

**** THE SOLUTION ****
The fix is actually very easy.

just add a conditional if around the EMBED tag:

so:

    <embed src="dmxMultiUploader.swf" name="upload1" quality="best" flashvars="<%=pau.flashvars()%>&formName=UploadQueue" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="550" height="350" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />

should become:

      <!--[if !IE]>-->
    <embed src="dmxMultiUploader.swf" name="upload1" quality="best" flashvars="<%=pau.flashvars()%>&formName=UploadQueue" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="550" height="350" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />    
    <!--<![endif]-->

That is all! We will make sure we fix it in the future updates but for now you can change it manually.

Sorry for the long investigation but it was really difficult to find.

Greetings,
George

This method works well. Also, I just got the update for 1.0.4 which includes this fix. My client is happy, I am happy.

Thanks Vulcho and George!
