## Description

I had a problem that most of the time I had to upload a file, and I had to use a
HTML upload, and that’s kind of bad, so I created something to use the Thickbox 
and the WordPress Uploader.

To use you must enqueue in the page used both the style and the script of the plugin:

    ```
    <?php
        wp_enqueue_script( 'extend-upload' );
        wp_enqueue_style( 'extend-upload' );
    ```

Then you can use the plugin by calling the jQuery Extends:

    ```
    (function($) {
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $('.uc-call').callUpload();
        });
    })(jQuery.noConflict());
    ```

And the HTML/PHP output should be something like that:

    ```
    <?php
        $args = array( 
            'url' => admin_url( 'media-upload.php?post_id=0&button=' . rawurlencode('Use as Avatar') . '&TB_iframe=1&width=640&height=253' )
        );
    ?>
    <p class='uc-container'>
        <label><?php echo _e( "Avatar:" ); ?></label><a target='_blank' class='uc-call' data='<?php echo json_encode( $args ); ?>'><small><?php _e( "Upload the Photo" ); ?></small></a>"; ?>
        <input class="uc-answer" type="text" value="<?php echo ( is_numeric( absint( $avatar ) ) ? absint( $avatar ) : esc_url($avatar) ); ?>" />
    </p>
    ```

Having the `uc-call` for the link, `uc-answer` with the input field and `uc-container`
for the box with both the link and the input field.

All the stuff is customizable by passing the variables in to the array `$args`, 
some stuff must be passed in the url, but later on I will add a easier way to do
it.
