Pure ASP Upload - Upload with Progress Bar

Upload with Progress Bar

In this tutorial we will explain how to make a file upload with a progress bar.

How to do it

To make the file upload with progress bar, you need to:

1. Start with basic upload page

   Start with an upload page where you have Pure ASP Upload on it. If you haven't done it yet, go through the Simple file upload tutorial.

2. Open the Pure ASP Upload dialog

   Select the Pure ASP Upload dialog by double clicking it on the Sever behaviors list.

   Make sure you've entered a long timeout. For more info see the Uploading large files tutorial.

   

3. Select the desired progress bar

When you need to restrict the size of the uploaded images, you need to fill in the minimum and/or maximum width and height on the Advanced tab. If you leave one of those values empty it means it is unlimited. The sizes are in pixels.



Currenly Pure ASP Upload is distributed with the following progress bars:

Blue Flash Progress Bar



Red Flash Progress Bar



Green Flash Progress Bar



Yellow Flash Progress Bar



Cool Green Flash Progress Bar



DHTML Progress Bar



File Copy Progress Bar



You can also write your own progress bars and plug them in Pure ASP Upload.

After you select a progress bar you will see that extra files are copied to your site. You have to upload those to your remote site as well.

4. Save and done

Save your page then, upload it to your server, and you are done! Go to your website and test it - you should be able to upload files and a nice progress bar will appear.
