"post it to a URL handled by a controller implementing the uploader,"
This is what I don't know how to do. Currently the controller is handling the upload and just placing the file into a folder. My code. function app_photo() { // what layout to use $this->layout = 'ajax'; // this helps determine any errors error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set("display_errors", 1); $target_path = WWW_ROOT .'media/transfer/img/'; $target_path = $target_path . $_FILES['media']['name']; // if we moved the image reply with the image name if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['media']['tmp_name'],$target_path)) { echo basename( $_FILES['media']['name']); } } My guess is that after I have moved the file would try to invoke the media plugin to duplicate the file, create the proper sizes and deposit them in the proper folders. But how do I tell the plugin to do that?
