 Severity:  major       |    Keywords:  swfupload lighttpd lighty 400
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 When trying to upload a file, swfupload gets HTTP error 400. There is more
 information about the issue in the
 [http://swfupload.org/forum/generaldiscussion/280 swfupload forums].

 The current degradation mechanism takes into account only client-side
 issues and if the browser is capable of loading swfupload this will be the
 method used. The attached patch tells the degrade script if the current
 webserver is lighty, so that it can degrade gracefully. The current loaded
 handler for swfupload had to be removed, because the degrade script does
 essentially the same and the custom hadnler used to override the degrade
 plugin.
