I downloaded the uploadprogress zip from that site (their example looks like
it provides what I'm looking for). At the expense of sounding ignorant...
How do I add that extension to PHP?  I looked through the example code, and
I get the idea of what's happening, but I don't know how to add it to my
server (I use shared hosting, though I have shell access).  Does it need to
be built into a *.so or *.dll and added to the PHP.ini file?  If so, how do
I build it?

In short, what next?

Thanks
