I know this has been discussed a number of times, but the problem I'm having at the moment is finding a solution that is easy to work with and does not require much hacking around.
I want to be able to upload a file, and report on its progress. I've been playing with SWFUpload, and it seems like a bit to much messing around for my liking. Integrating it with code igniter just seems like it's going to cause headaches.
I want a visual progress indicator of some sort to show the user their upload hasn't stagnated. Even if it was just a spinner saying "Uploading. Do not close this window until upload is complete." that would be enough for me.
Security is the most important. Using something like SWFUpload is going to require passing variables to the upload form such as the user ID and other information I'd rather not give snooping noses the opportunity to sniff.
Any possible solutions. Help is much appreciated.
