I have been trying to find a simple tutorial that shows the basics of how to add a progress percentage to my file upload, I have already built my file upload part so I don't want a plugin that comes with both, I want to be able to code the progress bar myself, but I need some help on how to do this. I want to learn how it works, I don't just want some plugin that does it all for me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
I'm just interested in how to get the percentage of the file upload, not really on the progress bar itself. I want to be able to have an accurate percentage.
You can display the percentage value in the ProgressBarAdv by using the TextStyle property.
Use the <progress> tag to create a progress bar in HTML. The HTML <progress> tag specifies a completion progress of a task. It is displayed as a progress bar. The value of progress bar can be manipulated by JavaScript.
Look here:

Try this:-
this is my html code
<!doctype html>
<head>
<title>File Upload Progress Demo #1</title>
<style>
body { padding: 30px }
form { display: block; margin: 20px auto; background: #eee; border-radius: 10px; padding: 15px }
.progress { position:relative; width:400px; border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 1px; border-radius: 3px; }
.bar { background-color: #B4F5B4; width:0%; height:20px; border-radius: 3px; }
.percent { position:absolute; display:inline-block; top:3px; left:48%; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>File Upload Progress Demo #1</h1>
<code><input type="file" name="myfile"></code>
<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="uploadedfile"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Upload File to Server">
</form>
<div class="progress">
<div class="bar"></div >
<div class="percent">0%</div >
</div>
<div id="status"></div>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="http://malsup.github.com/jquery.form.js"></script>
<script>
(function() {
var bar = $('.bar');
var percent = $('.percent');
var status = $('#status');
$('form').ajaxForm({
beforeSend: function() {
status.empty();
var percentVal = '0%';
bar.width(percentVal)
percent.html(percentVal);
},
uploadProgress: function(event, position, total, percentComplete) {
var percentVal = percentComplete + '%';
bar.width(percentVal)
percent.html(percentVal);
},
complete: function(xhr) {
bar.width("100%");
percent.html("100%");
status.html(xhr.responseText);
}
});
})();
</script>
</body>
</html>
my php code
<?php
$target_path = "uploads/";
$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']);
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
echo "The file ". basename( $_FILES['uploadedfile']['name']).
" has been uploaded";
} else{
echo "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}
?>
