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

I know this isn't a php question (though I'm using PHP for the server

are just
as experienced in ajax as you are PHP, because I can't find any

forums.
you can respond to me personally if needed, to keep it off the php
list....
my question:
I know there are alot of ajax/php upload progress bars out there, but
they're either complicated, unreliable, or just generally don't fit my
needs. Thus, i'm making my own.
One problem I'm running into though, is how to check the local file
size as
compared to the uploaded file size.
I can check and display the total uploaded size (ie, 437kb uploaded so
far...), but to get the percent, I have to know the total size -
BEFORE it's
fully uploaded. I would like to say "437kb of 932kb uploaded so
far"... but
how do I get the "932" from the local file? It doesn't do too much
good to
say how much has been uploaded if they don't know how much is left...
I know it's possible (most other meters do this) - I just can't
figure out
how.
any hints?
Thanks
