- sgtpinky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8You don't have to wait - there is a live demo :-|
- placain, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7So why don't you go DO so? This guy actually went and wrote something. Have you actually written a single line of your XUL code?
- bbondy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5A previous comment said that there was no drag and drop. There is actually drag and drop though. You need to do it on a non read only folder or file though.
- pbjorge12, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7I have been waiting for an Open Source version since I saw it - Thank you!
- placain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Those are GhostScript and ImageMagick, respectively, both of which are available on any Linux system.
- Bogtha, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Completely falls over *with* JavaScript. Try opening a link in a new tab. He's written the JavaScript in the totally stupid way of making everything a javascript: link or spans with click handlers. Please, read a JavaScript tutorial before you go any further.
- Mijo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3There should be an option for non-compressed download.
You can not realy save any bandwith with zipping jpgs and unziping a single file is kinda boring. - placain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It *has* drag and drop copy/move operations.
- dnthomps, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Yeah. I am glad they took their time because it looks like a great product. I have been waiting for it for about 6 months now.
- alphaX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Maybe it's an option, but surely why don't they just use the mod_gzip module for apache if they're worried by bandwidth and not server processing time.
- cbovis, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Looks pretty nice but it could do with some handling of non javascript users. Completely falls over without JS.
- bbondy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Nice work, it looks great
- veza, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3You could do some modification for it, if JS/Flash isn't enabled, it would say that "You should turn JS on / download latest browser" .. :]
- veza, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Ah, Edit time run out..What I was trying to say that It wouldn't be so big deal to add some code for it.. look SwfObject for example.
- dink, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I am already on it.
If you can do it faster, go to!
I plan on making this a gem - switch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Double click on the file name such as an image and it will start downloading. The zipping is only for the 'add to cart' feature.
- douglas, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Not bad...I think I might have to port it into Rails!
- smrty, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1ruby on rails version anyone?
- ENCRYP7OR, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Does anyone have a link to the zip file? I got home for lunch and planned to install it and the website isnt working anymore. I've tried several mirrors and none of them cached the file. Thanks.
- ffttoteof, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This looks very nice. The only drawback I can see is requiring PHP _and_ perl. I would gladly sacrifice the status bar on the upload if it meant I didn't have to have perl installed. It'd be nice if this was optional.
Maybe it is optional. There's hardly any documentation - sesh, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Looks really nice.
Other options are out there, fileNice for one. Not as much AJAX integration, but probably more backwards compatible. - iamnoskcaj, on 11/14/2007, -0/+1THis is completely badass. I dig it. I'm also going to give eXtplorer a whirl too. Drag and drop would be nice... although I'm not convinced it's essential for the project I'm working on.
- gigajosh, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Looks wicked, I can't wait to try it out
- BobMysterioso, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I just downloaded and installed this. Its fancy, slow on real world directory sizes, but fancy. There are a boat load of things you can't do however. If all you wanted was simple navigation then this would work great.
The download cart is very smart however. Still - PHPFM - which I was dugg down a bit on a previous comment - does all this and more. But not the download cart, or the flashy - its just plain. - nestormateo, on 01/11/2008, -0/+0I've ported Relay to a PostNuke (http://community.postnuke.com) module and it's useful to share files in my Blog. You can see and download it here:
http://mateo.mipopayan.com/Relay - nicepants, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Yes, I use them on linux, what amused me was that the install script automatically looked for an EXE.
- guidouil, on 11/09/2007, -0/+0I use eXtplorer, it as Ajax Inside with drag n drop, user management... and it's compatible with Joomla. Google it out for your Ajax browsing need ^_^ (I don't know why but it slows up the download on large file)
- alepee, on 10/07/2008, -0/+0Look really nice ! Some bugs but not to much. Don't forget this is the v0.1 beta !
I've been waiting for this kind of cool Ajax stuff - mlipovsky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm getting this error after i put in my database info... any ideas??
Database Connected....
done
Dropping tables if the exist...done
Creating tables
*relay_clients...You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'ENGINE=InnoDB; ' at line 9 could not create the table clients - milplus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Gents,
is there someone can help me and explaining if relay can be used and tested locally ? can this software be used in all the domains for a commercial purposes also and even for creating a customer area? what kind of dbase is using?
Please i hope to have some clarification.
Thanks
Viktor - lendrod, on 07/30/2008, -0/+0Hello.
we are a little radio station und use the relay script as our Mediapool. Now we have some problems with the download from the files.
We have all files as mp3-format and some are over 100mb big.
How can i download it with the relay manager, can i turn the zip function of? - nicepants, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2So it's PHP/MYSQL, requiring Apache and Perl, yet it relies upon gswin32c.exe and convert.exe for some functions. Does that seem a little backwards to anyone else?
Other than that mess it looks great, now to make sure I have all the correct software on the necessary server... - Wolfman~K, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I have been wanting to do something like this for net-K.us for a while now. Great link, thanks a ton.
- kitsched, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3Looks nice, however I think many users would approciate drag & drop copy / move operations.
- BobMysterioso, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Why not try PHPFM - http://phpfm.sourceforge.net/ - it may not be pretty, but it doesn't need MySQL or perl. Just plain old php - single file install - and it decompresses. I can't play with the demo as its b0rked - but I've had good luck with PHPFM.
It won't win awards for prettiness - but somethings don't need skins, they just need functionality. Lastly, on a host like mine - GoDaddy - that doesn't offer ssh or terminal access. Being able to upload zip files and decompress as well as change permissions and what not is very handy. The no install feature is also nice. - therernospoons, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2website and demo no worky =(
- mindamp, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1This is a slow piece of web junk. Dont waste your time with it. If an AJAX built application isn't fast, its useless. You windows folk should enjoy it.
- JRBlack10, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Nice, real nice. Too bad it is PHP and MySQL... may just have to review the code and maybe work on a ASP.Net hack. But then again... I don't have time for that.
Real nice, clean and simple... Good work. - robvdl, on 10/12/2007, -8/+0Nice, but I'd rather write my own based on XUL instead of HTML.
- stcairo, on 10/12/2007, -8/+0Neh, this is pretty poor. It's a nice effort, but not very revolutionar yor useful at all.
