Description

I set up a VM with IE6 which didn't have flash on it, and got the no-js basic version of Uploader. Took me a bit to realise it was cos of not having flash - would be nice to have a message that says the plugin is required, or, instead of encouraging flash usage, to switch to an html5 supporting browser.

Environments

Win, IE

    Due to a cross site scripting vulnerability we have removed flash support from the uploader. See FLUID-5354. However we could still add a message to use a browser that supports HTML5 upload.

    HTML5 Uploading now works on all supported browsers.
