I ... Had to do something like that recently .. Sending files through ftp_put(); i just send the file .. And when user clicks 'Send' button ... A pop-up appears and gets the file size of the remote file and comparing with de local size you can build a progress bar .... This pop-up uses the tag that Peter said HTTP-REFRESH so you can see how the file size increases every n seconds ... It worked for me .. I hope this can help !!
=> Daniel This wouldn't work for uploading files however since the long part of the process is the act of uploading the file and until that completes your "save.php" (or whatever) isn't called. So in regards to file uploading it has to be done with Javascript. What you do below is great for scripts that just take a long time though. -philip On Fri, 16 Aug 2002, Peter J.
