For some reason when I load a page with uploadify, in IE 8 I get this
Webpage error details

This works fine in FF and Safari Chrome
My jquery
$("#upload").uploadify({
uploader: '/assets/scripts/uploadify/uploadify.swf',
script: '/post/images/uploadify',
cancelImg: '/assets/scripts/uploadify/cancel.png',
buttonImg: '/assets/images/upload_button.png',

buttonText: ' Upload Profile Image',
'onError' : function (a, b, c, d) {
if (d.status == 404)
alert('Could not find upload script.');
else if (d.type === "HTTP")
alert('error '+d.type+": "+d.status);
else if (d.type ==="File Size")
alert(c.name+' '+d.type+' Limit: Your file size is too big, our max is 100Kb');
else
alert('error '+d.type+": "+d.text);
},
'onComplete' : function (event, queueID, fileObj, response, data) {
$.ajax({type: "POST",url:"/members/image_preview",data:{filearray: response},success: function(info){
$("#target").html(info);
},complete: crop});
}
//fileExt: '.jpg,.jpeg,.png,.bmp,.gif'
});
This is the line from the un Min version:
jQuery(this).each(function(){
settings = jQuery.extend({
id : jQuery(this).attr('id'), // The ID of the object being Uploadified
uploader : 'uploadify.swf', // The path to the uploadify swf file
script : 'uploadify.php', // The path to the uploadify backend upload script
expressInstall : null, // The path to the express install swf file
folder : '', // The path to the upload folder
height : 30, // The height of the flash button
width : 110, // The width of the flash button
cancelImg : 'cancel.png', // The path to the cancel image for the default file queue item container
wmode : 'opaque', // The wmode of the flash file
scriptAccess : 'sameDomain', // Set to "always" to allow script access across domains
fileDataName : 'Filedata', // The name of the file collection object in the backend upload script
method : 'POST', // The method for sending variables to the backend upload script
queueSizeLimit : 999, // The maximum size of the file queue
simUploadLimit : 1, // The number of simultaneous uploads allowed
queueID : false, // The optional ID of the queue container
displayData : 'percentage', // Set to "speed" to show the upload speed in the default queue item
onInit : function() {}, // Function to run when uploadify is initialized
onSelect : function() {}, // Function to run when a file is selected
onQueueFull : function() {}, // Function to run when the queue reaches capacity
onCheck : function() {}, // Function to run when script checks for duplicate files on the server
onCancel : function() {}, // Function to run when an item is cleared from the queue
onError : function() {}, // Function to run when an upload item returns an error
onProgress : function() {}, // Function to run each time the upload progress is updated
onComplete : function() {}, // Function to run when an upload is completed
onAllComplete : function() {} // Function to run when all uploads are completed
}, options);
I have faced this issue. This happens because Uploadify uses ‘settings’ on that line and, if you have an id named ‘settings’ in your html, then Uploadify throws an exception in IE. Seems like FF and Safari ignore this problem. So, just don’t keep any ids named ‘settings’ in the html of your page which contains the Uploadify component and you should be good 🙂
