hi Alexandre, There is a perl module that one of our developers built for Apache2 that you may wish to look at as it has a lot of the upload meter functionality built in. It takes care of the server side and sends XML back to the browser to update the meter. I'm sure the front end could use a jQuery makeover. You can see a demo of it at:
http://cees.crtconsulting.ca/perl/talks/yapc_ajax_and_perl/examples/UploadProgress/ Details on how to get it running are here http://www.mail-archive.com/cgiapp@lists.erlbaum.net/msg05269.html Regards, David Alexandre Plennevaux wrote: > hello, > > i'm in need of a good cross platform solution for file upload with > progress indication.
