javascript html5 file-upload filereader data-url
I am using the new FileReader API to preview images before upload. This is done using DataURLs. But DataURLs can be massive if the images are large. This is especially a problem for me as the user may upload multiple images at a time and previewing the bunch has actually slowed my browser considerably and actually crashed chrome a few times.Is there any alternative to using DataURLs for previewing images on the client before upload?

jquery html5 loops filesystems filereader
I have a code that gets a user’s local directory and then opens a filereader object for each mp3 file it finds in the directory. Sometimes this can be over 1,000 files. How would I optimize this code so that it does not crash the browser? It works perfectly for directories with up to 200-300 files in it, but crashes the browser without any errors in the console log. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Here is the link to a jsFiddle page of my code: http://jsfiddle.net/X6BZe/The fi

I’m experiencing an intermittent crash in my Android application running on a Droid X 2.3.4, using Cordova 1.6.1. I’ve created a sample project (http://bit.ly/IWxTv7) that clearly demonstrates the error on the device, but only intermittently. It’s happening frequently enough that if you run the sample and repeat picking a photo, after about 6 attempts you should see the crash. Also note that this functions correctly on iOS and other Android devices, so the fact that it’s intermittent and device/

I am facing a problem in what should have been a simple task of capturing video inside phonegap app. What I am trying to do is to start video recorder, capture a video file, get back the mediaFile and then extract the file path from it and read it using fileReader.

We try to upload a zip file using the “FileReader” javascript object on the client. For small files, everything seems to be fine. If we use a zip input file of 132Mo, in Firefox v21.0 on Windows 7, the first upload from the local disk thru the javascript object works well. But, if we try to select another file and start the transfert, Firefox crashes.. In Chrome v27.0 on Windows 7, it crashes(see the ‘oups’ page) on the first try. We tried on a Mac OS with same browsers without problem. Mainly s

I’ve been using the FileReader API to read local files and feed them to a Java applet, and this has worked for now. The file gets read, the applet behaves like it’s supposed to. The function which passes the contents of the file (as String) to the applet is currently called INSIDE the function assigned to the onloadend() event of the Reader (I use onloadend() insteat than onload() for some error handling needs. Though maybe I could replace that with a try/catch instruction, I’ll look into it). N

The FileReader API is used in my application to read the uploaded file(s) as ‘Binary Strings’. My application acts as a middleware. When used with one back-end, it worked as expected, but with the other back-end, it did not work. The browser I’m using is Firefox 16. The sample code is as follows,if(data[i]!=”” && data[i]!=undefined){var readDat = new FileReader();readDat.onloadend = function(dFile,ind){return function(evnt){data[ind] = evnt.target.result;if((evnt.target.readyState == 2)

With the new File API in Javascript you can read files in Javascript to create dataURLs to show clientside pictures clientside. I’m wondering if you can reach the File object within the FileReader’s onload callback. I will illustrate this with an example:var div = document.createElement(‘div’); div.ondrop = function(e) {e.preventDefault();e.stopPropagation();var files = e.dataTransfer.files;for ( var i=0; i<files.length; i++ ) {var file = files[i]; // this is the file I want!!var filereader =
