Progress Bar when file upload - El Forum - 04-22-2009

Hello
I have a jquery ajax upload system that works well.
However as I am uploading big files I would like to display a progress bar, or a simple percentage value, for the user to see that the upload didn't crash.
How could I implement that in my code ?
Code:
jQuery("#addVideoForm").validate({
rules: {
userfile: {
required: true,
accept: "mov|avi|mpg|flv"
}
},
submitHandler: function(form) {
jQuery(form).ajaxSubmit({
target: '#positive-result',
beforeSubmit: showRequest,
success: showResponse
});
}
function showRequest(formData, jqForm, options) {
$('#result').fadeIn("slow");
$('#positive-result').html("Uploading...");
var queryString = $.param(formData);
return true;
}
function showResponse(responseText, statusText) {
$('#positive-result').html( 'Video added.');
$('#result').fadeIn("slow");
}
});Progress Bar when file upload - El Forum - 04-22-2009

You essentially need to iteratively monitor the size of the uploading file on the server file system and compare it to the total size of the file.

To my understanding, this takes special configuration of the server, using the apc_fetch() or uploadprogress_get_info() functions available in the PECL extension.

You could use a flash based uploader, e.g. swfupload.org.
