Hi,

when you send Data with an UrlLoader, you also can receive Data back.  
Is this not possible with FileReference?

For example when you upload a File with FileRefernce to an PHP Script.  
Can you now receive also Data back from this upload?

Thanks in advance

Are you looking for DataEvent.UPLOAD\_COMPLETE\_DATA ? It’s dispatched by FileReference instances, and it’s kind of like the older LoadVars.sendAndLoad method, as far as I know.

I don’t think that it’s possible to have access to the uploaded file without having the client download the file from the server, though.
