I posted about this the other day. I was directed to look at megaupload
http://www.raditha.com/megaupload/
It works pretty well, I believe it uses Apache::Request to get the raw post info.
Issues in general:
Whenever this issue comes up people will ask why you need the functionality? I have a client that is
in the print industry who receives 50+Meg files. I know for a fact that PHP can add this
functionality internally, but thus far have chosen not too. In a perfect world it would have been
part of the HTTP spec and all browsers would POST the total byte size and generate a meter just like
with downloads.
Does anyone else think its time to rewrite all the protocols?
Sorry for the rant, stuff like this bugs the hell out of me.
Steve

Subject: [PHP] File upload progress
Does anyone know of a way to display the %complete of a file upload
using a form (POST) method?
In other words, I have a form for uploading files to the server. The
files are pretty large, 50,000+ lines and it takes a good 3-4 minutes to
upload. Is there any way to show the progress of this upload on the
page?
Thanks,
Jeff
