Hello,

I'm looking for somebody who's knowledgable in Java, specifically java applets.

I'd like to build a drag-drop file upload functionality for a web application framework.
(http://www.radinks.com/upload/ has a pretty neat example).
Goal is to have all three, a java, an activeX and a simple-html-fallback solution.
The system will eventually choose the most appropriate one for the current use.

I could hack out the activeX control, and the html fallback is not that complicated,
but I'd spent an eternity on the java end.

I'm planning for a PHP4 backend for now, though we could easily keep this modular as well.

Would anybody around here be interested in working on such a thing?
Or can any body provide some helpful pointers to get me started on doing it on my own?

Thanks,
so long,

->Tyberius Prime

I grabbed the code from here and cleaned it up a little bit. I have it launching but didn't actually try and get it to do anything. It is an application as opposed to an applet, but it shouldn't be too hard to convert it.

Hope this helps a little.

Thanks WarMage,
looks exactly like what I need.
Now all I need is some time - this is going to be the year of forced marches resulting in major growth, I guess.
