How can I create a file upload progress bar with PHP and jQuery? Please don’t refer me to Flash stuff like Uploadify. I want to create my own.
Just store and update the progress in server side session and use repeated ajaxical calls from the client side on to obtain the current progress from the server side session until it gets 100%. Long story short, here’s a clear tutorial how to do it with PHP and jQuery: How to build an ajax progress bar with jQuery and PHP.
Then the server side part, you need at least PHP 5.2 for this with the PECL Uploadprogress extension. You can find here a blog about it: PECL Uploadprogress example. This comment of jazfresh on php.net is also helpful.
