Jquery file upload 8.8.5,with codeigniter 2.1.x

Using this latest version with CI 2.1.x is quite simple. Many thanks to Sinisa who wrote a post pointing me to the right direction.

Here is how to do it in three steps.

Step1: Copy UploadHandler.php into /application/libraries. You can rename it if you like - but change the class name as well. (I renamed it to Uploadhandler.php, and changed the classname to as given below)

` class Uploadhandler {...rest of the code as is - with one modification explained in step 2

`

Step2: In Uploadhandler.php (use the name as you have given above), change the option value for "script_url" to as below: ` $this->options = array( 'script_url' => $this->get_full_url().'<your controller and method', ...

in my code, for instance, I had a controller called uploads. I created a method called do_upload in this controller - so my options value was: $this->options = array( 'script_url' => $this->get_full_url().'/uploads/do_upload', ...

`

Note: I use a blank ('') base_url in config.php, and use .htaccess to create a "REST"-like interface. ` $config['base_url'] = '';

`

Step3: Create your controller and method as per the name above and instantiate the library like this (I am directly copying excerpts from my own controller class - you may of course want a different controller: `

load->library("uploadhandler"); } } ` **Step4**: Update the controller and method information in the variable "url" in your js - either main.js - or in the inline javascript (I used inline because my app needed it - the values and the place remain the same however). Do note that my example continues with the controller and method I wrote for myself - don't forget to update it in case you are using your own. ` <script type="text/javascript"> $(function () { 'use strict'; var url = "=base_url()?>uploads/do_upload";

        $('#fileupload').fileupload({
            url: url,
            dataType: 'json',
            done: function (e, data) {
                $.each(data.result.files, function (index, file) {
                    $('<p/>').text(file.name).appendTo('#files');
                });
            },
            progressall: function (e, data) {
                var progress = parseInt(data.loaded / data.total * 100, 10);
                $('#progress .progress-bar').css(
                    'width',
                    progress + '%'
                );
            }
        }).prop('disabled', !$.support.fileInput)
            .parent().addClass($.support.fileInput ? undefined : 'disabled');
    });
</script>

`

Step5: Thats it. I created the relevant directories ('files') made sure it had write permissions for apache and it worked.

I havent had the time to extract the code files and upload - in case anyone is interested, please let me know and I will be happy to put it up.
