Error #2176 Swfupload
it to users using Flash 10. Flash 10 changes how javascript and flash are allowed to interact thus breaking the html upload button that calls javascript to present the file choosing dialog box. If you run SWFUpload in debug mode you will get Error #2176. To fix: Download SWFUpload v2.2.0 Beta 3 Core.zip (optional) Backup your swfupload.js and your swfupload.swf file Unzip and overwrite your existing swfupload.js and your swfupload.swf file. You might need to rename the swf to match your swf name. If you try the uploader at this point you will receive a javascript error: SWFUpload Could not find the placeholder element. Create a button image that will be used instead of the upload html input. Adjust your JavaScript to include the following attributes: button_placeholder_id : "spanSWFUploadButton", button_image_url : "http://www.yourdomain.com/yourbutton.png", button_width : 61, button_height : 22 Add a span tag with the element ID you specified above. Update: In order for your image to work properly, it must have 4 states. Refer to this post. If things are still not working for you, be sure to turn debug: true and review the javascript error log.

I created the views to be able to create/edit an user and the photo uploading is working nicely.

I tried to follow this tutorial and run the test project without any success: the browse button doesn't open a file dialog and an error #2176 is threw which is about the selectFiles() method. First, the problem is about Flash v.10 that isn't compatible with the old version of SWFUpload (2.1.0) included with the project : selectFiles() is now deprecated. So I tried to upgrade to SWFUpload v. 2.2.0 which now use a button_placeholder_id setting but I can't get any example to work.

I let my blog lapse for a while, and in the down time purchased a new machine. When I tried to get the blog up and going again, and using the new Vista enable machine, I receive the following error: Error: Error #2176: Certain actions, such as those that display a pop-up window, may only be invoked upon user interaction, for example by a mouse click or button press. at flash.net::FileReferenceList/browse() at SWFUpload/SelectFiles() at Function/http://adobe.com/AS3/2006/builtin::apply() at flash.external::ExternalInterface$/_callIn() at
