Uploading with Progress bar

Recommended Posts

Also, google will probably tell you this, but just to save you some time, it's not possible with PHP.  (Well, I suppose it could be done with PHP, but it wouldn't be worth the trouble.)

 

PHP scripts are not run until the entire client header is sent, meaning the PHP script isn't run until the entire upload has been uploaded.

 

I've heard Perl can do it though.

 

 

 

Anyway, the basic concept will be:

 

User starts upload.

Make an AJAX request to an upload status page, which will return a percentage, like 50 if it's 50% done.

Format the response onto a status bar or something.
