For a while, I've been having some issues with dropping files into the drag and drop area. I'm using a one pane layout. I couldn't figure out when IU would fail to register images I've dragged in and when it wouldn't. It all seemed to be happening at very random times.

I've finally figured it out. I haven't tested other browsers yet, but on the Java version on Firefox Mac, if you move the window that IU is loaded into, the drag and drop zone does not move with the window. It stays where the window originally loaded so if you try to drag to the new drop area, the file will not be added to your uploads (unless that drop area happens to overlap with the original drop area).

Is there a fix for this?

I think I'm talking about something else, George.

Here's what's happening.

This does not work

1. I click on a link to spawn ImageUploader in a new window in FireFox
2. IU loads in a pop-up window on the left side of my monitor screen.
3. I drag the pop-up window so it's now on the right side of the screen.
4. I try to drag and drop any image into the drop zone. Nothing will drop in.

This does work
1. I click on a link to spawn ImageUploader in a new window in FireFox
2. IU loads in a pop-up window on the left side of my monitor screen.
3. Without moving the window, I drag a file into the drop zone. It works.

This works partially
1. I click on a link to spawn ImageUploader in a new window in FireFox
2. IU loads in a pop-up window on the left side of my monitor screen.
3. I move the pop-up window 200 pixels to the right on my monitor.
4. The first 200 pixels of width of the IU drop zone on the left becomes dead. I cannot drop files into the 200 pixel region on the left size of the drop zone, but any drop zone space to the right will work.

Another Way to See This Bug
1. Spawn a new instance of IU in Firefox
2. Move the window
3. Right click to change the view of the window.
4. The contextual menu appears over the area where the window spawned at, not where the window was moved to.

My invokation code is the same as in this thread:

Hello,

Sorry for this delay.
I've tried to reproduce such behavior, but with no success at this moment: everything worked ok.
Could you provide me the direct link or zipped archive with the html?

Thanks for checking into this George. I did some more testing myself and here's what I found.

Mac - Safari 3.1.1 - Can't Replicate
Mac - Camino 1.6 - Can't Replicate
Mac - Firefox 2 - Was able to replicate problem
Mac - Firefox 3 - Can't Replicate
PC - IE 7 - Can't Replicate
PC - Firefox 2 - Can't Replicate

I used your online demo to test this:
http://demo.aurigma.com/ImageUploader5/ConcurrentUpload/default.aspx

So it appears that Firefox 2 is the culprit. Since I was only able to replicate this in Firefox 2, I thought it might be one of my plugins. I disabled all plugins and was still able to replicate the problem.

Alright, I've posted a bug report to Mozilla's Bugzilla here:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=442204

Let's see what they'll do...
