Hello everybody, I'm getting a problem in my server, for example when
someone want to upload an image with 5mb of size, on the server side is
kinda impossible to upload that, max size is 2mb and I cannot modify it
because is rented host.

Now my question is... there is some stuff on client/browser side to reduce
the quality of an image converting any size of them in less than 1mb ?

Thanks for reading

There are Flash and java applets that can do this for you. You can't do
this with plain javascript, AFAIK (at least not in all browsers).

After googling
(http://www.google.com/search?name=f&hl=en&q=flash+image+upload+resize)
for a few minutes I found this:
http://code.google.com/p/swfupload/

I'm sure there are others, but I haven't used any of them, so don't ask
me which one's best ;-).

Are you sure uploadify supports client-side resizing? I don't see any
mention of that feature in the docs. Uploadify is nice for general
uploading, though, I've already used it for that.
