Re: Transition Page?

I'm no expert, but I don't think there's a way to do this directly. Ideas that occur to me: - It wouldn't work for everyone since some (such as I :-) have javascript turned off, but you could first change the page on the click and then actually submit the form and start the upload. - You might send the just file name to upload back, get a new page containing the "please wait", and let that page request the file by name. This doesn't sound great; if you can do that, what's to keep you from getting any file you want from a surfer's computer? Maybe you can, but I'd be moderately surprised, which means I'd be moderately surprised if this approach works -- but it's worth evaluating.
