That is a bit complicated but it is possible. There is an extension named uploadprogress that requires PHP 5.2 but it can run with PHP 4.3 and 4.4 using special patches. To make it useful you can try a plug-in of this forms class that can display a progress bar while the form with files is being uploaded. Here is a live example that you can try: http://www.meta-language.net/forms-examples.html?example=test_upload_progress This example restricts upload file sizes to 1MB but you can configure your scripts to upload files of any size. Here you can watch a tutorial video about this plug-in: http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/video/1/package/1/section/plugin-upload-meter.html You may download the class from here: http://www.phpclasses.org/formsgeneration -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.metastorage.net/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
