first thing i checked!!! in firebug under the net tab all the scripts are loaded in correctly, is why it makes no sense to me.

the scripts are there and the code is exactly as is in the demo.

must be something conflicting i guess but what i dont know.

am using jquery latest version 1.4.2 there is a lot of other jquery on the page but all that is afyter the code for the plupload and it breaks before reaching that and the page works fine without the plupload code.

i cant give you a test url as its in a password protected area of my clients site.

Well... the error you get, basically means that there is a javascript error somewhere, which prevents all other scripts that follow from proper evaluating. Error can be everywhere. Have you tried a clean test case? With nothing other on the page then Plupload instance and required html structures maybe? Also try to run a different runtime, for example HTML4 or HTML5 and check if it does the job.

Finally got it working,

was not a problem with pl-upload but another script. took ages to find the problem. i was using jquery cycle on the page which for some reason pl-upload did not like, and still dont know why it didnt like it, thanks for your replys, was starange that the error showed up as a pl-upload error and not in the script for the cycle.

Hi All,

I am also having the same problem with Joomla version 3.3. I have used code
$document = JFactory::getDocument();     
$document->addScript("js/plupload.full.min.js");       
$document->addScript("/js/mediaUpload.js");

Both the files are getting added to the view.
Content of mediaUpload.js is
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    $("#uploader").plupload({
        // General settings
        runtimes : 'html5,flash,silverlight,html4',
        //url : "/examples/upload",

        // Maximum file size
        max_file_size : '2mb',

        chunk_size: '1mb',

        // Resize images on clientside if we can
        resize : {
            width : 200,
            height : 200,
            quality : 90,
            crop: true // crop to exact dimensions
        },

        // Specify what files to browse for
        filters : [
            {title : "Image files", extensions : "jpg,gif,png"},
            {title : "Zip files", extensions : "zip,avi"}
        ],

        // Rename files by clicking on their titles
        rename: true,
         
        // Sort files
        sortable: true,

        // Enable ability to drag'n'drop files onto the widget (currently only HTML5 supports that)
        dragdrop: true,
        // Views to activate
        views: {
            list: true,
            thumbs: true, // Show thumbs
            active: 'thumbs'
        },
        // Flash settings
        flash_swf_url : 'components/com_mediamanager/assets/js/setting/Moxie.swf',     
        // Silverlight settings
        silverlight_xap_url : 'components/com_mediamanager/assets/js/setting/Moxie.xap'
    });
});

Which I copied on one of your examples.

I am getting following error:
$(...).plupload is not a function
silverlight_xap_url : 'components/com_mediamanager/assets/js/setting/Moxie.xap'

Could you please help me with it ?

Thanks,
Ankit

I'm getting the same problem with the latest version (2.1.2).

My existing JavaScript doesn't generate any errors, and all libraries for the project – including plupload.min.js – are concatenated and minified into a single blob via Grunt.

Yet trying to bind $('.my-element').plupload({...}); causes the following console error in Chrome:

Uncaught TypeError: $(...).plupload is not a function

If I manually type plupload into the Chrome console after this error, Plupload does exist and has methods. But I can't seem to bind it onto a jQuery object.

Given that I get no other JavaScript errors from my existing code, I'm completely stuck. Any ideas?

if it could help someone, if you take the example, don't forget to load your_path/plupload/jquery.ui.plupload/jquery.ui.plupload.min.js and css !

In my case, it was that !
