Hello,
I want to use the HTML5 FileApi to read a SWF to an OBJECT
(or embed, if it's better to do?).
My current code crashes on Chrome/Iron (the only stable browser which also supports the xmlhttprequest v2 FormData). I got it to read image data into a on-the-fly created IMG. But the object one crashes the current tab in the browser.
else if (file.type == "application/x-shockwave-flash") {
var show = document.createElement("object");
show.type = "application/x-shockwave-flash"
show.style.width = "100%";
show.style.height = "100%";
show.id = "thumb";
document.getElementById("thumbnails").appendChild(show);
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = (function (aImg) {
return function (e) { aImg.data = e.target.result; };
})(show);
reader.readAsDataURL(file);
Do I really read to the object.data
part? How is it done right? Anybody know? Or is this incomplete and I have to wait for better implementation?
