 Now that we've got uploads running on our new, beefier file servers,
 I've experimentally bumped the upload limit from 20 to 100 megabytes.

 If we've got new beefy servers, another limit to at least consider
 bumping might be the PNG scaling limit.  12.5 megapixels isn't really
 all that much.

We actually do have code in SVN that can resize large PNGs
efficiently. The problem is though that it may or may not work for
pallete based images.

 Anyway, HTTP doesn't support feedback during upload (or any feedback,
 really),
 and HTML does not offer a way for multi-file uploads (which would also be

 handy). Any solutions I have so far seen for that are based either on a
 Java
 Applet or on Falsh.

RS.com's upload indicator apparently works via an iframe:

form name=ul method=post
action=http://rs426l3.rapidshare.com/cgi-bin/upload.cgi?rsuploadid=149063132559697458;
enctype=multipart/form-data onsubmit=return zeigeProcess();
div id=progbar style=display:none;

iframe
src=http://rs426l3.rapidshare.com/progress.html?uploadid=149063132559697458;
name=pframe width=100% height=120 frameborder=0 marginwidth=0
marginheight=0 scrolling=no/iframe
/div
div id=dateiwahl
input type=file size=65 id=dateiname name=filecontent
onchange=zeigeUploadBtn(); /
input type=image id=btnupload name=u
src=/img2/upload_file.jpg style=visibility:hidden; /
   /div
/form


The usage of an unique upload ID ensures at their end that the progressbar
iframe always gets the right data. It refreshes using AJAX technology:

I'll take a look if this might be applicable to put into MW.

 Sorry? You can upload multiple files in the same HTTP POST. Just add 
 several input type=file to the same page (and hope you don't hit 
 max_post_size). That can be done with javascript.
 
 Or do you mean uploading half file now and the other half on a second 
 connection later?

I mean uploading an arbitrary number of files, without having to pick each one
individually. For example by picking a directory, or multiple files fron the
same directory.

Sure, HTML can give you 100 choos file fields. but who wants to use that?

Re: [Wikitech-l] Upload filesize limit bumped

2008-11-22 Thread Daniel Kinzler
 Does a PHP script using upload stuff get run if the file upload is complete,
 or will it start while still uploading?
 If not, can't you figure out the temporary name of the upload on the server
 and then run ls -lh on it?

It gets run only after the upload is complete. And even if not, and you could
get the size of the temporary file, what would you do with it? You can't start
sending the response until the request is complete. And even if you could, the
browser would probably not start resinging it before it has finished sending the
request (i.e. the upload). This is the nature of HTTP...
