Because they open a separate window which I was thinking of originally
(a frame would work too). Essentially anything that initiates a second
request could provide the progress bar, but it won't work to have the
script handling the upload also handling the generation of the progress
bar.  In other words the form opens a second request with some
identifying information about the upload, that second request is to a
script that checks for an upload based on the identifier. Once the
request has been spawned then the form continues its normal submission
aka the first request which actually performs the upload, meanwhile the
second request updates the status to indicate a completion rate.  At
least that is how I was thinking of doing it... Regardless there must be
two separate request/response channels, at least based on today's
browsers as they have to complete the request before handling the
response, which does make sense.
