Cannot upload flash objects (swf files). Is this expected?

[eedeep]

Hi. When I try to upload a flash file (myfile.swf) it attempts to upload it and then fails with an "upload failed" message in the clipboard.

Just wondering if this is expected behaviour. Ie, as the name suggests does Image_Filer only support image files? If so no problem, just curious. Thanks for the good work.

yes, django-image-filer only supports images. see the next version: http://github.com/stefanfoulis/django-filer
It's not quite done, requires django 1.2 (there is a branch for django 1.1.1, have a look in the wiki).
I hope to make a official release in the next few weeks. Hopefully also with this new nifty filebrowser: http://img2.pict.com/51/6e/fe/2944513/0/jstreefiler1.png

Actually django-filer sounds like just what we need. I'll attempt to install it and maybe I can help you with bug fixes (although I'm something of a python n00b) and/or testing.
