# I would like to contribute a File Upload Status module - Thread: https://externals.io/message/1828 - Original archive: https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/1828 - Started by David Enderson on 2003-05-20T22:22:38+00:00 - Messages: 3 - Reply by email to internals@lists.php.net - More for agents: search with https://externals.io/search.md?q={query} · JSON API at https://externals.io/api · documentation at https://externals.io/llms.txt --- ## #1828 — David Enderson — 2003-05-20T22:22:38+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/1828#1828 I would like to volunteer time to the PHP project to integrate a module I've written. I work as a full-time programmer for Digital IMS. We provide quite a few webservices and use PHP for almost everything. We needed an additional feature that the language did not provide, so I was commissioned to write an addon module to the language. We have been using it successfully for a year and my manager is interested in allowing me to work with the PHP project to integrate our module into the sourcebase if you want me to. (I hope this is the right place to post this information. I hunted all over the website for a contact point for volunteering and didn't find anything.) Summary Explanation of the Module: Our clients often upload large files and wanted a file upload status bar. I discovered that there was no way to do a file upload status bar with PHP so I wrote an add-on module that does this. If a web programmer is to use this functionality successfully, a bit of Javascript mixed with HTML is required. Here are some screenshots of this process in action: http://www.yanthor.net/upload_status.html Obviously the HTML you see is completely configurable. What the module provides is three functions added to the language to access the current file upload information: - the current upload status - the number of bytes uploaded so far - the total size of the incoming upload. I am willing to rewrite as much of my code as necessary to fit the coding standards of the PHP project. If the PHP project is interested in working with me, I can submit a project proposal to my boss to allocate time for me to work on this project. If I posted this to the wrong place, please direct me to the person I need to contact. :-) Thanks.

The Javascript and HTML that makes use of these hooks fit better as a PEAR module. -Rasmus > I would like to volunteer time to the PHP project to integrate a module > I've written.

However for PECL there a sligthly different packaging mechanismns. regards marcus
