v2.5.0 implements several new features requested by users. Most notably Client-Side image resizing.


== Details ==

v2.5.0 Beta 1 should be pretty stable.  We've fixed most of the bugs that we've been notified of since the last release.  There are still many Flash Player bugs that plague us but there is little we can do about them.

== Known Issues in v2.5.0 Beta 1 ==

  * No event fired to indicate Image Resize. There is simply a delay between uploadStart and the first uploadProgress event while the image is resized.
  * Image uploads are sent a binary posts and not as file uploads. This is done in order to avoid Flash's over protective security. If the string "filename" appears in the upload data a security error is triggered by the Player.  This means the file data appears (in PHP) in $`_`POST rather than $`_`FILE and your server side tech may not stream the data to disk like it does for large files.
  * Special characters returned from resized image uploads are not interpreted correctly when returned from the Flash Player to `JavaScript`. Note: The Quotation Mark is a special character.  This is an old bug we worked around with the `FileReference` API but has reappeared with the image resize feature.  It does not affect normal uploads.
