Description

Until a time comes when the Flash-based uploader supports HTTPS, It might be a good idea to automatically fall-back onto the browser uploader, Currently, having to manually switch to the browser uploader is rather annoying to say the least..

I realise that some work will be done at some stage to support different upload methods, But it still affects current users.

From memory, Swfupload (Thats what we use right?)only supported SSL uploads with IE.

Works on a Mac with Camino. Which would mean with FF all over as well, since it's Mozilla in the background.

Replying to Denis-de-Bernardy:

Not necessarily. Flash uploading is different on different platforms, different browsers, versions of Flash. It's dizzying.

It works on some setups, and we should correctly remember whether the flash or browser uploader was last selected. Suggesting wontfix. Reopen if you disagree.
