Multi Upload with CI & swfUpload

[eluser]Sixer[/eluser]
Seems like you _have_ to use the Flash 9 version of the swf.

That way, you can set use_query_string:false.

That way, SWFUpload doesn't set GET strings at the end of the URL that cause CI to refuse the request.

Having said that, CI's session library and any Flash frontend to uploads are simply not meant to be together. It's based on cookies, which is discarded by Flash as an intermediary.

You can go back to PHP's own session system and still use the same code you have in CI now, if you replace its session library by the one documented here: http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Native_session/

If you want to keep CI intact however, work around it instead, like other users have. By passing some kind of key to SWFUpload that you keep in your database for each of your users. Then look for the right user based on that key.
