File upload progress bar: is flash-based the only way possible

Question

Possible Duplicate:
Upload progress using pure PHP/AJAX?

I'm trying to have a file upload input field in my form and to have a status bar that shows upload progress as a percent and kb of the file. I keep seeing a lot of flash-based uploaders like swfupload. What non-flash alternatives are there that depend on js/jquery (no swf)

-1 No prior research shown. This is a "solved issue" without Flash, albeit with their own set of limitations. — , Feb 10 '11 at 06:40

If PHP has the APC extension installed then you can use it to get upload progress reports via AJAX.

You should to use an iframe and form, if you setup what the frame are the target of the form, you can see an ajax effect. I use it, and solve all my problems
