That's from within a single script. But it becvomes possible if you have a page like this +---------------+

!         +---+ !

! main ! c ! !

!         +---+ !

+---------------+ where main is executing the upload and c runs by metarefresh a second script that watches how the temp file is growing on the server. So the guy is right in his second try to it. Sadly the $_FILES variables will be available only after the upload is completed, so in order to have that up and running he will also need to: 1) create a uniquely identified dir to which only that user upload will be sent (that's done when dynamically creating the upload form) 2) pass the dir name along to the monitoring script. 3) clear the directory on upload successful completion 4) periodically clear the amount of temporary dirs that have remained on the server as a result for process failures. If all you do is managing file uploads all the time you might want to limit your number of concurrent uploads by creating a pool of TMP dirs that you will share among users. When they are all got your users have to wait, but you don't freak out because of an exponential growth of abandoned dirs. It *is* complicated. But if you really have to do it... I wish you not to need it, anyway. пока Альберто Киев @-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@ LoRd, CaN yOu HeAr Me, LiKe I'm HeArInG yOu? lOrD i'M sHiNiNg...
