The traditional way to do this was to use load url, and then use 
the urlStatus function to track the download with a send message 
... in time routine. This wasn't possible with the blocking url 
calls such as get url and your example.

However, the latest libUrl release (1.0.8a1) has a callback feature 
which enables you to track progress during all downloads/uploads. 
More information is at the following url:

If I use put url myUrl into url myDiskPath for a lengthy download, does
anybody know of a way to receive information from MetaCard during the
download so a progress graph can be shown to the user?
