 I tried the page you pointed to, but nothing happens after I select a file
 to upload, and there are these errors in the Web Console:
 {{{
 [08:32:17.703] InvalidStateError @ https://peersm.com/node-browser.js:45
 [08:32:34.507] TypeError: f is undefined @ https://peersm.com/node-
 browser.js:45
 }}}

 Please go back and read comment:8. I am ignoring this ticket until you
 take those basic debugging steps. I need you to test websocket-server and
 websocket-client both on localhost. Do not test against tor1. Do not test
 with peersm in place of websocket-client, or I will continue to ignore the
 ticket.

 In comment:4 I tested the main flash proxy use case, and it worked as
 expected.

 If you really think there is a problem with the websocket-server, you need
 to show me evidence that it is the case. You haven't even shown evidence
 that the problem, if it exists, is with websocket-server and not tor1
 itself. This is the simplest thing of all to test: Just set up websocket-
 server on a different host and see if it behaves the same. I really cannot
 take any action on this ticket until you do these basic steps.

 I am grateful that you are taking the time to make these reports. But
 please, you need to do some things differently in order for the reports to
 be more useful. Please read comment:8 again.
