hi there,

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

I'm not sure when it becomes available, but $_FILES['file_name'] ['tmp_name'] is the only place I know of to find the temporary name.

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.

You could try doing a print_r($_GLOBALS); in that script to find out if there are any other helpful places to check.

HTH,

Brady
