Error when uploading photo to forum post

Hi Jools,
I attempted to add a photo to a forum post. The operation seemed to work at first - I selected the photo and the upload started. The green progress bar beside the file name looked like the file was almost finished, then the upload stopped and a pop up window appeared with the simple message, "HTTP error. "
After the error appeared, the upload stopped and never finished.
Cheers,
Eric

Also, today I tried to upload files in different formats:
- Uploading a .JPG file (what I tried to do last night), I received this error, which appears in a small pop-up window near the top of the screen.
ERROR
HTTP error.
- Uploading a .PNG file that does not include a transparent background color designation, I again received the same "HTTP error." in the pop-up window.
ERROR
HTTP error.
- Uploading a .PNG file that includes a transparent background color designation, I did not receive a pop-up error, but instead I noticed a yellow triangular warning sign with exclamation point in the "status" column to right of the upload. When I clicked on the status warning, it displayed a pop-up window with the phrase,
ERROR
The image file you tried to attach is invalid.
- Uploading a .BMP file, I received a different pop-up error message stating
ERROR
Invalid file extension: (filename.bmp).
I don't recall every having trouble uploading files with .BMP or .JPG formats, and I think I've successfully uploaded files with .PNG format that had a transparent background too. So all of this seems odd.
Cheers,
Eric

This will be a clash with the javascript used for uploading and the javascript I removed for the tooltip issue. Almost certain - looking into it.

This is now fixed. The temporary area used to initially hold upload files had unexpectedly filled up and so clearing it down has resolved the issue.
Cheers,
