That sounds great! Any idea when it will be ready?

For everybody using my patch posted above, until the new version is ready, please note that this is not yet complete and will only remove 1 file! I will change it to use an array instead of the variable so it works properly.

I finally patched FancyUpload2.js
beacause of the IE bug (Internet Explorer 6 / 7 / 8 partially ignoring return false inside onSelect and uploading the file even though it does not appear in the queue shown in the browser);

Thanks to the other posters for the initial suggestions. What I do is check the file for file type, minimum size and maximum size using a custom validateFile function in the swiffy constructor.

window.addEvent('load', function() {
var swiffy$artikelnr = new FancyUpload2( [...]
// more options here
validateFile: function(datei) {
// various tests here
if (correct==1) return true;
return false;
}
[...]

To get this actually working in Internet Explorer as well, I had to modify FancyUpload2.js

onSelect: function(file, index, length) {
var errors = [];
if (this.options.limitSize && (file.size > this.options.limitSize)) errors.push('size');
if (this.options.limitFiles && (this.countFiles() >= this.options.limitFiles)) errors.push('length');
if (!this.options.allowDuplicates && this.getFile(file)) errors.push('duplicate');
if (!this.options.validateFile.call(this, file, errors)) errors.push('custom');
if (errors.length) {
alert('zu loeschen');
this.zuloeschen=file;
var fn = this.options.fileInvalid;
if (fn) fn.call(this, file, errors);
// return false; // DONT RETURN FALSE YET AT THIS PLACE
}
(this.options.fileCreate || this.fileCreate).call(this, file);
this.files.push(file);
return true;
},

onAllSelect: function(files, current, overall) {
if (typeof(this.zuloeschen)!='undefined') {
if (this.zuloeschen!='') {
this.removeFile(this.zuloeschen);
this.zuloeschen='';
}
}
this.log('Added ' + files.length + ' files, now we have (' + current.bytesTotal + ' bytes).', arguments);
this.updateOverall(current.bytesTotal);
this.status.removeClass('status-browsing');
if (this.files.length && this.options.instantStart) this.upload.delay(10, this);
},

only question left:
what is the correct syntax to call removeFile()
for one file from inside function onAllSelect inside the script FancyUpload2.js

already tried

this.removeFile(fileObject);
removeFile(fileObject);
FancyUpload2.removeFile(fileObject);

no error message, but no file removed, no remove function called.
(I checked with an alert inside the remove function. the alert only shows when I manually delete a file from the file list shown in the browser)

I had this error message when the html browse button was calling the old browse function (from flash 9 version). The flash 10 Version (FancyUpload 2) moves a transparent flash over the HTML Browse button that calls another file selector instead.

Try adding after the Swiffy-Constructor:

\$('demo-browse').addEvent('mouseover', function() {
swiffy.reposition();
});

Replace demo-browse with the ID of your actual browse button,
and swiffy with the actual instance name of the FacyUpload2.

Hidden indeed! Took me DAYS to understand the problem and find this hint!
reposition() should be mentioned on the main page of FancyUpload, this might save other developpers a lot of wasted time. Thanks a lot for this comment!
