<p>It seems like drag and drop upload widgets disappeared from the face of Web 2.0. The last one of these I remember using was an activex widget, and inability of using it in anything other than IE doomed it. Have you used or seen one of these recently?</p>

You can use Javascript to interact with an invisible flash app which performs the file transfer. YUI\'s file upload control does this. You can see an example on Flickr\'s enhanced upload page.</p>\n<p>We\'ve built a custom version designed for use with GWT apps.
