Rad Upload 4.0 is a major release with significant changes. Most of the features that we previously available only in Rad Upload Plus has been made added to the standard edition. In order to distinguish between the two editions we have added an exiting new feature to the plus edition; the ability to resume an interrupted HTTP upload.

The change notes for Rad Upload Lite
- Max Upload Limit Increased
Until now the free version only allowed you to transfer upto a maximum of 512 Kilo Bytes at a time. This limit has been doubled. You can now send upto 1MB
In previous versions, when the maximum allowable size was exceeded, the applet would display the message "Maximum upload size exceeded". You can now use the max_upload_message directive (which was previously available only in the Plus Edition) to display your own custom message instead. It's also possible to embed the message as a web page into the applet box instead of displaying the message as a popup dialog box
A minor bug was reported in client side filtering by file type when FTP was used as the protocol. This issue has been addressed
- Allowed types and embedded monitor.
- An error was detected when the embeddable monitor option was used with the file types filter. If the user attempts to upload an unacceptable file; the applet's display would change to the progress mo monitor which is not desirable. This bug has been eliminated.
Changes in the standard edition
- Upload Limit.
The maximum upload limit has been increased from 100MB to 2GB.
- Client Side Image Resize, Filter by File type and Gzip Compression
Three Features previously available only in the Plus version can now be found in the Plus version as well. These
measure help you cut down on your server's bandwidth, processor and memory usage. That in turn enables you to handle a larger number of users with existing resources.
- Javascript notication and redirect after upload
Stating from version 4.0 The standard edition will also fire the 'uploadCompleted' javscript notification which many users of Rad Upload Plus have found to be indispensable. Another feature of the Plus edition - redirect after upload has also been added.
Rad Upload Plus
- Resumable Uploads
Should an Upload be interrupted for what ever reason the applet will now automatically retry the upload, resuming from where the transfer was interrupted. If the error cannot be recovered from (eg network failure or service outage), you can restart the upload manually and it will still start from where it left off. This new feature can be used in both HTTP and FTP modes.
- Bypass server limitations
Certain server configuration directives restrict your ability to upload large files. If you have access to the server configuration files you can change some of those directives to over come those limitations (please refer to our server configuration guide to learn how.
In certain instances it may not be desirable to change those setting or perhaps you may be on a shared server and do not have permissions to change the server settings. The new version of Rad Upload Plus allows you to bypass most of those limitations and upload large files regardless.
