Mike, To do this in Perl, you'll need to be able to access what's going on with the Web server while it's uploading. That means mod_perl or something similar and I can't help you there. If you have a straight CGI or ISAPI script, your script won't be able to respond until *after* this file is uploaded. Maybe there's something with Javascript? I don't recall seeing anything like that, but it's a thought. Cheers, Curtis "Ovid" Poe ===== Senior Programmer Onsite!
