PHP File Upload Progress Bar Part 2

After further investigation PHP 5.2.0 now allows you to use the APC (Alternative PHP Cache) addition with the ability to track the progress of uploads. Within windows it is as simply adding the dll extension to your php.ini and putting some configs there to. With Linux I’m not too sure how you add this extension as I don’t know Linux well. But anyway below is some nice and easy documentation on this.

PHP File Upload Progress Bar

PHP File Upload Progress Bar

As you may be aware in php it doesn’t have the functionality to report back the status of file uploads. For example upload percent complete, speed of upload and estimated time of completion. To be able to provide a progress bar the easiest way would be to use a perl script to do the uploading for you as perl has this functionality. Now I build a file uploader for the public and I looked at providing a perl uploader but because I know very little about the language of perl I couldn’t get any examples to work for me, but the ones that did work needed some server side changes. These server side changes would be no good for most of my downloader’s as many of them don’t have root access to their server.

There is another solution out there but once again it involves making server side changes which hacks php and adds the additional functions to track the upload progress of a file.

The above hack for PHP can be found at http://pecl.php.net/package/uploadprogress. There isn’t much documentation out there for it but if you do a Google search you will find one or two examples.

The above hack I’m thinking about putting it in my module so that those that have the modified php will be able to run my uploader with the progress bar but those without would not get the upload progress bar. The thing in to build my module to use this hack I need a server that is running the hacked version of php. Thing is I’m stuck with a shared hosting account and I don’t have access to modify php. So if there is anyone out there that can lend me some space for a short time and is running the above hack please contact me so I can’t continue building my file uploader script

Blogger on Strike

So my blog has been dead for awhile, no I wasn’t on strike. Well there is a reason why. I’ve just been busy busy busy. Firstly there was end of semester exams. I’ve spent most of my free time revising and finishing up university work, ready for the second semester.

Recently at work I’ve got so much work to do that I don’t know where to start on them. It’s come to one of those points were everyone is coming to you for small changes and those small changes take up all your time so you can’t work on those bigger things that will solve the small problems which are using up all my time. We are now in a vicious circle here!

Got a New Bike

As mine was starting to fall apart due to it being left outside all the time I have gone a gotten a new bike. It’s one my mum had got but she didn’t want it so I bought it from her. It’s one of these fold up ones that folds up to about a size of a suitcase. Ideal for folding up and bringing indoors and storing. Now it’s not left outdoors in the rain and should last me a good few years. Well my last bike was about 6 years old so it had a good innings.

Just Good Friends

Ok a little issue… It’s about a girl… A girl I like a lot… So what is the problem? Just ask her out and live happily ever after. If only life was that easy… When we talk and some of the things she talks to me about makes it clear that she only sees me as a good friend. It took someone else to point that out to me, but since it was mentioned it became clear. Fair enough I know we are just good friends but when she talks about her love life it hurts me. I’m really lost here…

They say friendship is worth keeping hold of no matter what but my friend hurts me because of my feelings towards her. What do I do? Do I continue to pretend everything is ok and just continue to be friends and now and then feel sad because nothing can progress between us and maybe one day something does come of it? Do I stop the friendship because the pain is not worth the friendship and/or go out and meet new people?

Can anyone offer some good advice?

Life’s Little Annoyances

Yes life’s little annoyances but nothing worse when they all come at the same time. That’s exactly what has happened to me this evening and hasn’t put me in the best mood.

Ok finish work at 6PM, my day at work was an average day’s work, nothing to write home about. Got outside and it was absolutely pissing it down! Great I have to cycle home in this; I knew I was going to get soaked. So I set off and sure enough I was wet through within minutes. Another couple of minutes down the road my back tire goes flat real quickly. I’m shouting out “You’re fucking kidding me!” I couldn’t believe it I had got a puncture, as I knew I would be walking the rest of the way.

So I’m walking along in the rain in very uncomfortable shoes, not ideal for walking in, and it’s another two miles into York city centre. “Oh what’s this? A bus shelter!” Ok I’ll wait for a bus to take me into town. I wait ten minutes and the bus comes along and stops. As I’m about to board the bus the bus driver says “Sorry you can’t bring that on here, we are not allowed them on the bus”. So I have no choice I’m walking into the city centre whether I like it or not.
I finally get to the train station and by the looks of it I had just missed a train for Leeds so I had to wait thirty five minutes for the next train. I’m wet and cold and having to wait for a train freezing my bollocks off.

I finally arrive at Leeds get off the train and prepare myself for another two mile hike home. No point me trying to get on the bus with my bike because I’ll be told to get lost again.

Pretty much it, I’m back home now, wet, cold and my feet are killing me. I think I’ll jump in the bath and chill out.

Tomorrow I now go to go out and get a puncture repair kit. While I’m out I might as well get a new back tire as it’s worn out. Also get some new back and front brake pads as they are not working as well as they should.

Knowing when to say good-bye

While this is tough in any relationship, this can be especially hard over long distances. When communication becomes one-sided or sparse for too long and for no apparent reason, when arguments (yes, you’ll have them) become too frequent, when the whole thing just seems like more trouble than it’s worth, it’s time to re-evaluate the relationship. Either you’ll decide to go your separate ways, or you’ll get closer for having overcome another obstacle to your happiness together.

Lazy Weekends

I’m having one of those real lazy weekends, the ones where you do the bare minimum and spend most of the time sleeping. So what does the bare minimum mean for me? It means sleep in till 1PM, lounge around in PJ’s most of the day, no cleaning and no work what so ever.

I’m closing down

Closing down my webhost. The day has come; I’ve had enough of webhosting and I cannot afford the £100/month anymore. I have found a cheap webhost for my few personal sites, Steezmatic-Designs and l3rady. The webhost is the same company that provided my server. At least I know their customer service is good and their network uptime is very good too :)
