seymoursp Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 We run a small printing business, and have set up a php form on our website, which enables users to upload files to our network hard drive in our office. It works a treat, but I am looking to improve it. When uploading larger files, the page continues to display the form. There's no indication that it is uploading, some users think that it has crashed so keep trying. Ideally I want the form page - a page informing the file is been uploaded - then a status report that the file has/hasn't been uploaded. What is the best way to do this?

Alex Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Using JavaScript, you can simply hide the form after it has been submitted and display a loading symbol or, simply a message, expressing that the file is being uploaded and to be patient.

seymoursp Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 Cheers Alex. I don't have a clue with Javascript but will trawl the internet until I get something. The tests I did were with some test files, but we had a client upload a file, they assumed it had gone, and it's not arrived, no email confirmation... so we're a little stuck.
