Multi Upload with CI & swfUpload

[eluser]andjules[/eluser]
I managed to get this working too...
here are a couple of extra pointers to help the next person:
a) stating the obvious for newbies & people experiencing a 'brain fart' (I was a little bit of both): the controller that loads the view that displays the swfUpload page ISN'T part of the Upload controller shown in the example above. You could show the swfUpload function on your welcome controller/view, if you wanted. The Upload controller above is just where swfUpload SENDS the file
b) more imporantly, if you're using .htaccess, you'll need to add the folder/folder path you plan to upload to, e.g. notice the 'filetemp' (my upload folder) in the following:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|assets|filetemp|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?$1 [L]

or it will just hang (if you set the log threshold to debug in config.php, it'll tell you that the upload path doesn't seem to be valid)
