Finally started on the uploader

[Clark, Colin]

Hey Mike,

I have one more commit to do (the network hasn't been very reliable here at the conference), but it's pretty well ready to work on.

Here are some links you'll find useful when working on the HTML 5 version of the Uploader:

XMLHTTPRequest Level 2 (with progress events):
http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest2/

W3C File API (of note for Uploader are the FileList and File interfaces):
http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-FileAPI-20101026/

Tutorial on the File API in Firefox 3.6:
http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/12/w3c-fileapi-in-firefox-3-6/

I'm in the midst of resuscitating the two broken unit test files, but it's all working properly again in both the demo and server backed modes. If you want to try it with our demo server, here's the code:

http://source.fluidproject.org/svn/fluid/image-gallery/trunk/

Run ./development-support/clean-build-run.sh to--obviously enough--clean, build, and run the gallery app.

Hope this helps,

Colin
