Re: [PHP] POST form File Upload Progress Bar?
My cheap trick around this is to have an onClick event on the form submit button that brings up a small window with a progress note in it, and an animated gif of a prgress bar. As the page does not unLoad until the upload is finished, I use the unLoad event of the body tag to close that progress window. Generally works really well for me. I can show you an example if you like. Wes I have a POST form with a file upload field. Users will be uploading pictures. What would be the most professional way to tell them their file is uploading and to please wait? Since the action page won't execute until after the image is done uploading, is there a way to have an intermediary page load telling them to please wait, and that page will take the image and upload it? Or should I just put a note in the upload form warning them about the long upload times and gray out the submit button with javascript after it's clicked? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] POST form File Upload Progress Bar?
Here's a quick-and-dirty working example:
---
script language=Javascript
var waitwin;
function openWaitWin() {
waitwin=window.open(wait.html,wait_window,width=250,height=220,menu
bar=no,statusbar=no,toolbar=no);
}
function closeWaitWin() {
if (waitwin!=null) {
waitwin.close();
}
}
/script
body onunload='closeWaitWin()'
form method=post enctype=multipart/form-data action=myaction.php
input type=file name=test
br
input type=submit value=go onclick='openWaitWin()'

I have a POST form with a file upload field. Users will be uploading
pictures. What would be the most professional way to tell them their
file is uploading and to please wait? Since the action page won't
execute until after the image is done uploading, is there a way to
have an intermediary
page load telling them to please wait, and that page will take the
image
and
upload it? Or should I just put a note in the upload form warning
them
about
the long upload times and gray out the submit button with javascript
after
it's clicked?
