Stable jquery or flash uploader - javascript

I have been using a jquery plugin called uploadify for handling file uploads as it comes with interactive flash upload. but everyone on my website is complaining its not working. can some one please recommend me one that works in most situations. Thank you

Well, jQuery upload would be handled very different from a Flash-based upload. So you've to decide what's right for the site.
jQuery: http://jquery.malsup.com/form/
Flash: http://code.google.com/p/swfupload/

UPloadify its jquery and flash both............ http://www.uploadify.com/

Can you recommend an alternative for Telerik upload contorol?

Thanks in advance.
Have you looked at Uploadify?
Uploadify is a jQuery plugin that integrates a fully-customizable multiple file upload utility on your website
Uploadify is a great multiple file uploader. It was built off of the popular SWFUpload and they added new features to it.
Some of the features that I have found most helpful are:
The user can upload all the files at once using ctrl + clicking on all of
the files
As the files are being downloaded a queue is displayed which
shows the files being downloaded including a completeion bar.
As files are completed they are removed from the queue
It also allows you to specify which file types the user is
able to download (they can only see the ones you choose)
The main downfall is that it is a flash uploader if that is a problem for you.
I personally use Plupload http://www.plupload.com/ as it has some great options.

Multiple file upload (client side)

I'm looking for multiple file upload component with alternative ways.
I need HTML5, Flash and normal upload support, depended by device.
I don't like FancyUpload, because it uses mootools and mootools is very big library.
Also I can't use jQuery, because I'm writing on Ext js and it's not good idea to use two big library like jQuery and Ext js.
I can write it myself but I don't have a time.
If everyone knows any library like this, please post link here.
Thanks!
I am a big fan of Plupload
Here is an example of all run times supported (Flash, HTML4, HTML5, etc...): http://www.plupload.com/example_all_runtimes.php
You can also include only the run times you want.
Here is an ExtJS 4 wrapper I wrote for SWFUpload: https://github.com/JarvusInnovations/Ext.ux.SWFUpload
I'm interested in having a more robust ExtJS4 upload widget though that supports HTML5 and normal form upload too. Maybe we can build one if nothing else turns up.

Javascript(or maybe not) text editor with Image Upload functionality

I'm working in Ruby On Rails 2.3.8 and I need to use a text editor in which I could upload images.
Currently, I'm using TinyMCE, but doesn't have that feature. So, I've tried the TinyFCK, but I could not make it work (it uses PHP, so I'm not sure whether it will work or not in ruby on rails).
Does anybody know any?
Here a TinyMCE Rails version with Image Uploading.
So you've tried ckeditor? It's Javascript, not PHP. Some of the upload examples show PHP scripts to handle the browsing and uploading of images on the server but there's nothing to stop you creating these with Ruby.
You might want to have a look at TinyFCK or other plugins described and evaluated here.

Searching for a multiple file upload

I'm looking for a multiple file upload button. the ones I've found are
swfupload
uploadify
and a jquery plugin: http://www.fyneworks.com/jquery/multiple-file-upload/
I want to integrate it in a django app. ATM the only one which is working without any problems and is in widespread use seems to be swfupload.
Am I right or am I missing another one?
SWFUpload is the way to go. I've used it in several apps and has the best features out of any of them.

What is the best multiple file JavaScript / Flash file uploader?

Specifically, I'm looking for a client-side, JavaScript and / or Flash based multiple file uploader. The closest thing I've found is FancyUpload. Anyone have experience with it? If not, what else is out there?
Yahoo's YUI Uploader is your friend.
Uploadify is a jQuery / Flash hybrid (if you don't feel like adding in YUI just to handle uploads).
Demo
How to implement
SWFUpload is probably the leading "competitor" to that.
Alternatives to SWFUpload:
YUI Uploader
jqUploader (jQuery plugin)
Flash/AJAX File Upload w/ Progress Server Control (ASP .NET based)
Plupload seems to be interesting...
It looks like a new entry into this field is 'jQuery file upload':

Agile Uploader now supports multiple files as of version 2.0.
http://www.shift8creative.com/projects/agile-uploader/index.html
Here's a direct link to a demo:
http://www.shift8creative.com/agile-uploader/examples/all_files.php
It allows all types of files and can actually resize images before upload to help save on bandwidth costs and server processing power.
I've used FancyUpload plenty of times and it's absolutely fantastic. The only problem (but this is true for most flash uploaders, I guess) is session handling - if you're using sessions you're going to have to pass along the session ID to the flash file and back again.
digitarald (the author) has a new version of FancyUpload in beta now that works with Flash 10 (something a lot of the other uploaders don't). According to him it should be very simple to upgrade from FancyUpload2 to the new version, once it's released.
Google Gears solution with client-side image resizing (mine, sorry for advertisment)
Dropzone worked for me for simple drag-and-drop functionality that degrades gracefully. Very easy to set up.
