[bahaa82]

Thanks you for this solution , I need to use it to support older browser , I tried the code from your example page , but the problem is that the button text is "Charger Fichier" ,and once I click on it no thing is happened ( the getFileData from the java script is not fired ).
your help will be appreciated.

Actually I am using the same code from your example , but I figure out that I placed the definition of the Flash variable in the wrong place so the SWF object could not call it so after I move it to.How ever it is now working except that in IE 9 the button title still "Charger Fichier" although the functionality is correct. I am thinking to solve that by hiding the button but I need to trigger click event on the SWF button. do you know how can I do it , your help is appreciated code is 👍

javascript :
swfobject.embedSWF("/Flash/FileToDataURI.swf", "file-object", "180px", "23px", "10", "SOL/Flash/expressInstall.swf", {}, {}, {});

FileReader is not available in IE9, so only the Flash button should be loaded. I guess you didn't correctly copy my code.

// if the FileReader API doesn't exist, then we load the Flash
// that's the case with IE9
if (typeof FileReader !== "function") {
  swfobject.embedSWF("dist/FileToDataURI.swf", "file-object", "80px", "23px", "10", "dist/swfobject/expressInstall.swf", {}, {}, {});
} else {
  // otherwise we replace the HTML code '<object id="file-object"></object>' by an input file
  $('#file-object').replaceWith('<input type="file" id="file-object" value="Load a file" />');
}

Your HTML code shouldn't contain an <input type="file"> but only <object id="file-object"></object>, and then the JavaScript will either load the Flash, or change the object by an input file.

When I said I want to see your code... I need to see all the JavaScript part and the HTML part: the same code you can find on the example page.

(I'm French so we can discuss in french if you want :-p)

I wish I can speak french but I do not know : )
You are right , I fix my code and know I almost get the same behavior on your example , the only difference is that in IE 9 the flash button text "Charger Fichier" (now I know that it is in french :-P) )
The project that I am working on SPA built with durandal.js and MVC on the server) so I will try to send you the code soon , but mean while can you advise if it is possible to trigger click event on the flash button ?

"Charger Fichier" is the default label for the button in Flash. But it shouldn't show you "Charger Fichier" if you used the below code given in the example :

// it's the function called by the swf file
var Flash = {
  /* getButtonLabel() permits to define another label for the "Load a file" button in the Flash version */
  getButtonLabel: function() {
    return "Load a file";
  }
};

You're definitively doing something wrong....

And, no, I don't know if we can trigger the click event on the Flash button.
