Drag and drop web widget upload ftp files

Drag-and-drop widgets seem to have disappeared from the face of Web 2.0. The last of them that I remember was the activex widget, and the inability to use it in anything other than IE doomed it. Have you used or seen one of them recently?

Dojo Toolkit The JavaScript library supports some of the drag and drop features I saw in IE6 + and FF2 +. The good thing about Dojo and other JS libraries is that they abstract away all the material for detecting the browser.

I am sure that other JS libraries support this functionality.

FTP Drop for Yahoo Widgets allows you to drag and drop files through the widget, and the file will be sent to a specific ftp server.

Our current project makes heavy use of drag + drop, using GWT and gwt-dnd you can make very cool stuff. Standards and works in IE6, Safari, Firefox, Opera, etc.

The question of how to transfer the file is a separate one, which I believe.

As for FTP support, I see that it is largely replaced by HTTP File Upload support.

In case you need more flexibility (progress bar, select multiple files), you can use the flash for this. You can use Javascript to interact with an invisible flash application that performs file transfer. Managing the loading of YUI files does this. You can see an example on the extended Flickr download page.

We have created a custom version for use with GWT applications. The same concept.

You can upload an applet, such as JFileUpload, to FTP in a browser. See: http://www.jfileupload.com/products/jfileupload/index.html

[Disclosure: this is my site]

It supports regular FTP, FTPS (explicit and implicit), and SFTP (FTP + SSH). It can also resume transmission interruption.

Applets can be moved outside the browser with JRE 1.6.0_10.
