I have a variable in javascript containing a string of XML data that I want to upload to a server running ASP.NET MVC.

It works just fine using jQuery.post method. My problem is that the data weights about 5 megabytes so this process could be rather long depending on the bandwidth available between the client and the server. As of now, in the user’s perspective, the process feels like nothing is happening because there is no feedback whatsoever.

This upload is part of a workflow in which other somewhat lenghty steps are included, namely to extract the XML from a device. These steps report realtime feedback to the user thanks to the jQuery Progressbar and some client side events. It would make sense to include the upload in the same process and use some similar reporting mechanism.

Any help would be appreciated… thanks in advance!

    You could break the data into multiple pieces (e.g. 50 kB) and then calculate the progress on the client.
