Title: loading bar while uploading?
Post by: neo1716 on February 28, 2005, 04:15:18 PM
Is it possible to display a loading bar while uploading large files? Users get discourages and it seems asif the upload has failed after waiting a long time. A loading bar would be nice.

not possible, as the http upload is done using the "regular" browser upload feature. You can't find out how large the file is while it's still on the client, while this piece of information would be necessary to show a progress bar. Such a feature could only be accomplished if you used another means of upload, e.g. a Java applet (which is not available).
