Javascript?
SHTML?
PHP?

We could if http uploads supported loading a page between submitting the form and being 100% done, which they don't....

I don't think the issue with that is a server issue or problem with the code ... I think its user-error. But that doesn't mean we can't make it more user-friendly.

A simple...
'Upload Started' when you hit submit.
'Upload in progress' until the file is verified.
'Upload Completed!' when the file is verified to be uploaded successfully.

We can certainly script something like that?

It already does that pretty much... you just can't show a % done, as PHP does not have callbacks or anything for that sort of thing.



EDIT;
As for blank pages when uploading - this would happen if the connection was interrupted during the upload, if its happening a lot it suggests the web server has some connectivity problems... as I said before it's a basic HTTP upload with no fancy stuff...

[color=#00BFFF]Can they create new folders or manage the structure? We created the basics, but there are a LOT of things that aren't built into the structure so people would have to upload to the next best thing which will end up being a huge administrative headache for us. Plus what if there is a file that is uploaded that needs to be removed?[/color]

[quote="Stitch"]Well, I tried to upload a video today, the page for the file went empty so I assumed that the file had uploaded.

Then went to look for the video, and it wasn't on TsuFiles. :S[/quote]
[color=#00BFFF]I've heard this same thing from a lot of people, actually...[/color]

As for an upload %... not possible without redoing the entire upload system in flash or something, TsuFiles simply uses HTTP file uploading which just copies the file to the web server and THEN submits the form.[/quote]
[color=#00BFFF]Perhaps we can do it with PHP: (1) "Starting upload", (2) "Upload in progress", (3) "Upload complete/failed!". Something as simple as that would address this issue and I know for a fact it can be done.[/color]

Okay, well I ended up uploading it onto YouTube anyway, so... :)

Empty page would mean it's not loaded properly. If the upload was successful it would tell you so.

I'm sure he'll see this topic.

Two other things I'd like to point out for Dan:
[list=1]
[*] I don't see a "Maximum file size" on the upload form. Read it from php.ini
[*] We need a back end administration completed for this. I got a lot of people offering to upload files, but without being able to manage the structure or assign permissions to staff members - its mostly useless to the public.[/list]

Best way to get his attention is to pm him so he gets an email

Then I hope he reads this thread. :D

Danpaul handles the coding of TsuFiles

[18:37:24] <Starlite> Can I just offer two suggestions for TsuFiles?
[18:37:33] <Starlite> One's simple enough, the other might be a bit more complicated.
[18:37:50] <Starlite> For the file address, where it comes up with like
[18:37:56] <Starlite> C:\Documents etc etc...
[18:38:18] <Starlite> I'd say it'd be better if that text was black, so you can see it.
[18:38:57] <Starlite> And also, if there's a way to tell you what percentage of the file has uploaded, that'd be useful.

Would make uploading on TsuFiles a lot easier.
