[SOLVED] Determining tmp filename in advance while the upload is still in progress

[name1090]

    is there a way to determine the tmp-filename of a file upload while the upload is still in progress?

 

 

  I know that the tmp-file is stored in /tmp and it's name is something like PHPXXXXXXXX.

 

    what i would like to do is:

    i want to upload a file via a html-form and while the upload is in progress make repeatedly ajax-requests to a php-script on the server that replies the size of the tmp file (the amount of data that was already uploaded). So in this script i need to know what the tmp-filename is.

 

How can we get the tmp filename in advance when the upload is not yet finished?

$_FILES['FIXME']['tmp_name']

I think?

Using that, we can get that value only after file upload is finished.

But i need to know that tmp name in advance while the upload is in progress. so that i can have a progress bar...

Anybody know how to?

The Alternative PHP Cache (APC) has some methods available for getting information about upload files in progress.
