No, the global session is based on their logged in username, since it is unique to the person logged in, then it will only be theirs... that is why I did that. it is not just a single name, it is their username.

Since session is what it was using and they already have a session, I use Apache::MySql::Session, I went ahead and changed all of the code to that:

#Was: (in sub hook):
    # Write this data to the session file.
    open (SES, ">./$sessid.session");
    print SES "$bytes_read:$length:$percent";
    close (SES);
#Now (in sub hook):
my $_ups = join(':',$bytes_read,$length,$percent);
$sess_ref->attr("_uploadStatus_","$_ups");

#Was: (no sub, just in code [after upload complete]):

    # Delete the session file.
    unlink("./$sessid.session");
# Now in same place:

    # Delete the session value.
    $sess_ref->clear_attr("_uploadStatus_");

# last change:
# Was

    if (-f "./$sessid.session") {
        # Read it.
        open (READ, "./$sessid.session");
        my $data = <READ>;
        close (READ);
        print "$data";
    } else {
        print "Error reading Upload progress...";
    }

#now:

    $data = $sess_ref->attr("_uploadStatus_");

    if($data) {
        print "$data";
    } else {
        print "1:1:1 No Session Value Found";
    }

Also of note, I see in hook, these values received in it:

$filename,$buffer,$bytes_read,$file
[download]

But I don't see a reference to hook passing those values to it. How does that work?

Now 1:1:1 No Session Value Found prints... So I am thinking that hook is never even executed.

What executes it?
Thanks,
