Pure HTML Progress Bar

File uploads are great because they are so compatible. Because they use standard HTTP virtually every web browser can do them and firewalls don't get in the way. If your user is on a fast connection or is uploading small files the process is instantaneous. You choose a file - you hit submit - your file arrives on the server.

Problems only start to arise when you want to upload large files or your users are on slow connections. When clients submit their file it may take seconds or minutes to send to the server. Because browsers don't display progress bars your users may get confused or frustrated and give up rather than completing their upload. The obvious solution to this would be to give the user a dedicated progress bar but client side code brings in major problems of incompatibility.

ABCUpload utilizes a Pure HTML Progress Bar. It keeps track of every upload and allows you to watch how much of your file has been uploaded with absolutely no components installed on the client. If you can upload; you can use our progress bar - it's Pure HTML.
