Hello,
I am currently uploading files in ActionScript 3 using the upload() method of the FileReference class.
I built an uploader than can do simultaneous or parallel uploads, having a variable set the number of maximum uploads at a time.
I noticed that for Internet Explorer I could be uploading 10 or more files simultaneously, but FireFox and Safari seems to cap the number of uploads to 2. That is, when I call the upload method on per say, 3 files, only 2 will get events back (such as ProgressEvent.PROGRESS). Only when one of the 2 uploads finishes, then the 3rd one will start. This behavior does not happen for Internet Explorer. I have tried with a large number of files, and some big files, to make sure this behavior was consistent.
I was wondering if anyone noticed this behavior please, and if so, what is the reason for this behavior please?
I appreciate your help,
Thank you very much,
Rudy
