RE: [PHP] determine file-upload's tmp-filename
The name of the upload tmp file MUST be known. If the $_FILES[] is not available until the upload completes; perhaps a kludge is to set a unique upload_tmp_dir, for the session, that will only contain the upload for this user in this session. There will only be one file to monitor with filesize(). * Now the server can know the destination filename. The form will have to have an OnClick method that passes the srcfilesize to the php service who stores it in a session variable. The existence of the session variable enables the connection to the service and the discovery of the location of the special upload directory The service will just service requests for the filesize. That's half the problem solved. The other half is to make the srcfilesize available to the client JavaScript. -Original Message- From: Michael Fischer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2008 3:51 PM To: 'php-general' Subject: RE: [PHP] determine file-upload's tmp-filename On Mon, 2008-01-28 at 15:34 -0500, Mr Webber wrote: On Mon, 2008-01-28 at 12:17 -0600, Richard Lynch wrote: On Sat, January 26, 2008 5:57 pm, Michael Fischer wrote: hi there, is there a way to determine the tmp-filename of a file upload while the upload is still in progress? the tmp-file is stored in /tmp and it's name is something like PHP. 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).

The size of the tmp file would reflect that amount. lg, Michi I would create your own perl/cgi up-loader that runs like the perl version. I would run it from (x)inetd, or something similar. I have created a number of socket servers that run 24/7 on my server with no glitches. Because of the size of data and the connection duration, I would suggest forking the parent for every child connection that comes in. But then have that child process report what it needs to a database, or temp data file. The incoming TCP connection will report the payload size and from that you can then figure the rest out. You would have to handle all the data connections, creating the tmp_file and such, but it would all be possible.

BUT - this requires the client to either have flash or java browser plugin installed. i don't want that. and i don't know any way in javascript to get the amount of data already sent - so i thought i'd try on the server-side. lg, Michi -- Sautergasse 27-29/35 1160 Wien phone: 0043 650 2526276 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://www.webfischer.at -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
