Pure Lasso Upload solution with Progress Bar

[Marc Pinnell-3]

Has it been done yet? I am currently using a solution of PHP/Perl/
Lasso/CGI which is a pain in the rump to migrate and manage. I have  
heard bits and pieces on this list for possible solutions, but  
doesn't seem like it has been put together in one spot yet.

Hi Marc,

I feel your pain... Like yourself, I've been dabbling with similar
solution and managed to at least get rid of PHP :-)
However, I don't think there's a current solution without Perl.
Anyway, I've a Lasso/Perl (CGI) demo on
http://www.visualid.com/upload/upload.lasso , and a few files on
http://www.lassoforge.com/projects.lasso?PR=62

Looks familiar! Thanks, I will take a look at the code. I remember  
Fletcher or someone saying that it might be possible to cut out the  
Perl. I need to dig back through the archives and see if I can find  
that post.

Let you know if I find something.

I took a stab at an upload progress indicator for this week's tip.

<http://www.omnipilot.com/TotW.1768.9061.lasso>

The idea I used is to simply display a div with a message and animated gif when the user submits the form.  This progress indicator loops until the file upload is complete and the page actually refreshes.  The visitor is provided with visual feedback that the file upload is happening but doesn't get an indicator of percentage completion.  I find this type of solution appealing since it is so lightweight and doesn't require additional server-side tools or extra page loads.

This solution could be enhanced by using an AJAX technique to dynamically refresh the progress indicator div once it is shown.  And of course the look and feel of the progress indicator itself can be changed dramatically.
