Javascript – Drag and drop file upload library for Internet Explorer

internet explorerjavascript

I found a great library called JQuery File Upload for drag-and-drop files uploads in modern browsers. Unfortunately drag-and-drop does not work in Internet Explorer.

Drag-and-drop file upload in IE is a requirement of the project, so I'd like to find a solution for this specific situation. My idea is to end up with two versions of the upload page, one for IE, and another one for the rest of the world.

Does anyone know a good activex library for such uploads in IE, that does not require any installation?

I think that the best way is to use the new HTML5 Drag and Drop API and new File API.
