couple of questions

1: how do I disable thumbnailing all together? I don't want them created, i dont want folders created etc.

2: trying to use the Flash uploader, it seems to work ok but it gets stuck with a "processing...." message after the upload happens. I think it has to do with the above but I am not sure.

When using the flashuploader, I get prompted for credentials even though my ASP.Net app is impersonating.

Re: couple of questions

so I updated to 2.2 and how do you use the HTML5 upload?

I can't find that feature anywhere in the documentation and searching the forums here is PAINFUL.

EDIT:
is html5 on by default now?

Chrome looks different to me than IE8. It looks like Chrome is using HTML 5 and my copy of IE8 is just using the normal HTML upload.

Re: couple of questions

Also, does the HTML 5 allow larger files to be uploaded? is there a way to get it to let you get more than about 5 megabytes?

Re: couple of questions

1. In the config file for every server language you can configure and disable thumbnails. For example here's the php section:

$config['Thumbnails'] = Array(
      'url' => $baseUrl . '_thumbs',
      'directory' => $baseDir . '_thumbs',
      'enabled' => true,
      'directAccess' => false,
      'maxWidth' => 100,
      'maxHeight' => 100,
      'bmpSupported' => false,
      'quality' => 80);

2. You should check if there's an error message returned by the server. Use any kind of debugging tool like Fiddler, firebug, developer tools, dragonfly,...

3. By default HTML5 uploads are enabled as long as the browser supports them.

4. IE8 is "old", and doesn't know anything about HTML5 features. In the blog post you can read that the first version of IE to support HTML5 uploads will be IE10.

5. The upload limit is the same as the old one. You can configure it in your config file but don't forget that your server might be the one that limits the file size, google for info about how to change that.

Re: couple of questions

I assume the flash uploader allows for lager files to be uploaded?

Assuming one can make it work.....

Re: couple of questions

it flash allows for larger uploads with out the issues of the regular HTML style uploads then it is, sadly, a better option for what I am trying to achieve with using CKFinder.
