CakePHP Ajax Image Upload

Question

How can i submit a form which contains an image and store it in img/orginal folder and then resize it to a few different sizes and store them in img/small img/medium img/large using the CakePHP media plugin or any other plugin.

I just want to know is it possible to upload an image by sending the file to the server and running an action where i can do a little bit of logic and return back and display the image.

Please guide me where i should start.

Found this pixelcone.com/tutorial/…

Put the whole uploadify package in app/webroot/uploadify, paste the Head section into a view and change the script setting to point to a CakePHP controller action that handles the upload..

ahhh oops didnt see the "AJAX" in the title.. so you should use a JS uploader like the one mentioned on the other answer, and server side you'll need a component like the ones that i sended you

It doesn't work with the latest version of CakePHP, but I think its close to what you need.

[UPDATED, March 13 2012]

Actually, I was looking for something like the above (which is how I stumbled on this Stackoverflow post in the first place), and didn't really find anything that came close to what I was looking for ... so wrote my own Plugin:

https://github.com/srs81/CakePHP-AjaxMultiUpload

All documentation is in the README, and it should just work out of the box on CakePHP 2.0.6 and 2.1.0 (tested on both.) Hope its useful.
