uploading percentage indicator

[john_zakaria]

i am using php to upload flv files in server and it works well. a

ll that i need is to show loading indicator that shows the user the status of the uploaded file now

( like the download indicator in any program that shows for example: downloaded : 80% ).

i want to show the same idea but in uplaodng file

(uploaded : 1% , 20% ........ , 100% --> uplaod completed).

any idea??

try using javascript to submit the data, than you can keep track of how much has been sent and how much is left to send.

Php doesn't have this sort of this, as far as i know. However, if you are lazy, you could send the data in an iframe, and then while the iframe is loading you can place a simple uploading screen over it... and when the file is done loading u can use javascript to tell the parent frame to remove the screen.
