Re: Upload Progress

I don't know if CGI::Simple offers it, but CGI has a method called upload_hook, which can be used for that purpose:

        $q = CGI->new();
        $q->upload_hook(\&hook,$data);

        sub hook
        {
               my ($filename, $buffer, $bytes_read, $data) = @_;
               print  "Read $bytes_read bytes of $filename\n";
        }

The size of the uploaded file may (or may not) be passed in the headers - call uploadInfo() to find out.

But this can't be used to build a progress bar... see Yet another progress bar.; I made the same error :) Ciao, Valerio	[reply]

But this can't be used to build a progress bar... Not within the same request, as was mentioned in the thread you linked to, but you can use it to build a pop-up based progress bar. See Apache::UploadMeter for a mod_perl implementation of a progress bar (it uses the upload hook in Apache::Request to do it). - Cees	[reply]
