Html file upload file with drag and drop support

Question

I would like to create a file-upload field where users can just drag and drop a file onto a certain area in the browser window.

Does this work with all modern browsers?

thanks!

Answer 1

I found this plugin quite nice:

http://valums.com/ajax-upload/

The page has a live demo where you can drag and drop a file that gets uploaded.

Unfortunately, it only works in Chrome and Firefox, other browsers have to press a button!
