I've recently been told by a colleague that Firefox 3.6 supports native drag and drop file uploads + image resizing from the operating system without any extensions or plugins required.

Can anyone post a code snippet or provide a link which demonstrates this new functionality (as I couldn't find much on a Google search)?

It's reasonably non-trivial (for HTML) hence no code snippet, but there's a pretty good HTML DnD tutorial over here.

NB: Updated with correct link. (My bad.)

Edit: also https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/-moz-background-size if that's the image resizing you're after
