Drop Area for Files?
Jan 11th, 2007, 11:29pm  
Hello all. Do you think it would be possible to create a drop area for files, such as jpg images, mp3 or txt files.

The goal is to create a simplified upload opportunity with drag an drop on a website with graphical feedback in order to simply collaborate with other users.

This would include several problems, first of all the drop area within the applet, second the upload itself (i've seen some stuff for this in the forum) third, the download by dragging it to the desktop...

Do you think this is possible in general? And how?

Thanks for suggestions - and existing code of course Wink

Hello mateo.

I remember I was solving the same problem before. There is a fine library from Andreas Schlegel named control p5.. http://www.sojamo.de/iv/index.php?n=12

There is a possibility to use its code to drag and drop things into the applications - function called drop(); Im not sure about applets, but you can try it.

good luck
