PHP Upload Progress Session

Question

I am trying to create an upload progress bar with PHP. I saw the new feature of PHP 5.4: upload progress session.

This is my HTML code:

Answer 1

It's not possible in one POST request, you can do AJAX requests, and read session while file is uploading. After file is uploaded, the session.upload_progress.name key is removed so you are getting an empty array.

Answer 2

I think it's because your form is not getting submitted, as you have return false in

$('#upload').submit(function () {
    interval_id = setInterval(function () {
        $.ajax({
            url: "ajax/progress.php6",
            type: "POST",
            success: function (data) {
                console.log(data);
            }
        });
    }, 200);
    return false;
});

and it initializes interval, so the page always return null as nothing is being uploaded. Try using http://www.malsup.com/jquery/form, it submits form

Wasn't able to sort it out so I used XMLHTTPREQUEST "progress" action and that worked well. Thanks!
