Well you need to know the TMP file name that has been in progress of upload, it is usually at /tmp folder

I know how to get that...

also you need to know the actual size of file uploading, there is an extension for PHP that will give you this info but you need to compile it , on my cars site for uploading images I am using this one http://blog.liip.ch/archive/2006/09/28/upload-progress-meter- extension-for-php-5-2.html

I downloaded the uploadprogress zip from that site (their example looks like it provides what I'm looking for). At the expense of sounding ignorant... How do I add that extension to PHP? I looked through the example code, and I get the idea of what's happening, but I don't know how to add it to my server (I use shared hosting, though I have shell access). Does it need to be built into a *.so or *.dll and added to the PHP.ini file? If so, how do I build it? In short, what next?
