Uploadify/Paperclip¶ ↑

This is a simple Rails (2.3.4) app that shows using Uploadify www.uploadify.com to upload multiple image files, using Paperclip to store them.

I originally built this while testing it myself, and am putting it up since I didn’t ever find a clear and complete example that worked in 2.3.4.

Setup¶ ↑

It’s a standard Rails app, nothing special. The code does depend on the mime-types gem, so you will need to install that.
