I tried. It wasn't worth all the perl mods I would to have had to install to make it work.
Check out http://pear.laurent-laville.org/HTML_Progress/. It is a pure php approach to displaying a progress bar. I haven't used it, but the demos look good.
This a different thing. This is meant to track progress of server side tasks. File uploading is a client side task. Unfortunately, AFAIK there is no way to handle streams of HTTP requests. Therefore, there is no way to handle upload progress with a PHP only solution. The Raditha megaupload solution is based on a combination of Perl with PHP. It is probably the solution that uses more PHP but the hard work is done using Perl. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/
