That's from within a single script. But it becvomes possible if you have
a page like this
+---+
! +---+ !
! main ! c ! !
! +---+ !
+---+
where main is executing the upload and c runs by metarefresh a second
script that watches how the temp file is growing on the server. So the
guy is right in his second try to it.
Sadly the $_FILES variables will be available only after the upload is
completed, so in order to have that up and running he will also need to:
1) create a uniquely identified dir to which only that user upload will
be sent (that's done when dynamically creating the upload form)
2) pass the dir name along to the monitoring script.
3) clear the directory on upload successful completion
4) periodically clear the amount of temporary dirs that have remained on
the server as a result for process failures.
If all you do is managing file uploads all the time you might want to
limit your number of concurrent uploads by creating a pool of TMP dirs
that you will share among users. When they are all got your users have
to wait, but you don't freak out because of an exponential growth of
abandoned dirs.
It *is* complicated. But if you really have to do it... I wish you not
to need it, anyway.

[PHP] how to know upload progress status
Hello,
I'm beginning to use PHP, maybe my question is very simple...
Anyway, I want permit users to upload files using a form, and I would show
them the upload progress status...
I don't know how to extract informations about upload progress status and how
to show informations to users. For example I want the users can see 30% of
upload completed, or the MByte just uploaded.
I had some difficulties to write to the list, so I send the mail (with some
modifies in the address) several times;
I apologyze if many mails are sended to the list.
Thanks for help...!
S.
In th file fileupload.php I call a function named uploadfile as shown in
the follow code:
uploadfile($g_dir_corrente);
if (is_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']))
{
$nomefile=$HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['name'];
if(($nomefile!=.htaccess)($nomefile!=.ftpaccess)($nomefile!=.quota))
{
copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'],$g_dir_corrente/$nomefile);
messaggio(12); // show a message to users
echo br;
}
else
{
messaggio(13); // show a message to users
}
}
**
function uploadfile($g_dir_corrente)
{
$Upload_file=messaggioX(11); // show a message to users
echo
form enctype=\multipart/form-data\ action=\fileupload.php\
method=\post\
input type=\hidden\ name=\MAX_FILE_SIZE\ value=\10\
$Upload_file input name=\userfile\ type=\file\
input type=\submit\ value=\Upload\
/form
;
}
