Re: [Flashcoders] Upload speedometer without FileReference?
I know upload has nothing to do with files. The only reason I mentionned files is because, as far as I know, only file upload in Flash tells you how much you have uploaded, and you can use that to determine an upload speed. How do you reliably measure upload speed of sending data in Flash?

Re: Re: [Flashcoders] Upload speedometer without FileReference?
one way is to send data to a FCS/FMS implementation and have the server send back the time it got your original message...compare that to when you sent the original message a few times and you have an idea of speed... that's the gist.

Re: [Flashcoders] Upload speedometer without FileReference?
Other options are using Java, which has more flexibility, or perhaps using XML or LoadVars, and sending a specific amount of POST data. simply divide amount sent by time taken, to get the speed.
