AjaxFileUpload Control Improvements - This release includes a greatly improved AjaxFileUpload control which supports:

• Large Files - The AjaxFileUpload control now supports uploading very large files (greater than 1 gigabyte).
• File Upload Progress - The AjaxFileUpload control has been improved to display file upload progress using two different techniques. For browsers which fully support the HTML5 standard, the AjaxFileUpload displays progress using client-side progress events. For browsers which do not fully support the HTML5 standard, the AjaxFileUpload displays upload progress by polling the server.
