Wrong behavior after the first file read

[bamarni]

Hi,

When I read from the input file the first time, everything is correct, but when the file is changed and I read again, the load event will be triggered 2 times, when I change the file again, it's getting triggered 3 times, and so on... This is obviously wrong, the real Filereader object doesn't behaves like this.

Here are some logs :

debugMode : ,true 
File Input add...,my_input_id,false,,, 
MouseOverEvent...,my_input_id 
FileInput Event click[object Object] 
Browsing...,my_input_id 
File Input change...,my_input_id 
FileInput Event change[object Object] 
FileReader read...,my_input_id,A.JPG,readAsDataURL 
FileReader Event loadstart[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event load[object Object]true 
FileReader result...,my_input_id.A.JPG 
FileReader Event loadend[object Object]true 
FileInput Event click[object Object] 
Browsing...,my_input_id 
File Input change...,my_input_id 
FileInput Event change[object Object] 
FileReader read...,my_input_id,B.jpg,readAsDataURL 
FileReader Event loadstart[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event progress[object Object]true 
FileReader Event load[object Object]true <====== WRONG FROM HERE
FileReader result...,my_input_id.A.JPG 
FileReader Event loadend[object Object]true <=== TO HERE
FileReader Event load[object Object]true 
FileReader result...,my_input_id.B.jpg 
FileReader Event loadend[object Object]true 

@Jahdrien if you don't have time to fix this please give me some pointers and I'd be happy to submit a PR, thanks

Occurs for me as well. Would love a fix.

@mattking17 : here is the dirty hack I've done for now (https://github.com/bamarni/FileReader/commit/74546ba4019576878f62e1dc421131905088bd87).

I didn't go further in my investigation since it fixed my issue, I'm not sure though wether the issue is in this library or on the underlying swfObject it uses.

thanks @bamarni! I'm trying to remove all dependencies on jquery from this plugin and ended up rewriting an implementation myself. I think what I'm going to do is refactor it to only support one file handler at a time. It seems that the reader result comes in multiple times, it ends up triggering load events for all file handlers ever registered. This works for my case since I only care about people uploading one file at a time.
