[Release - Gamma] Psuedo-progress bar for uploading attachments

Firstly I would like to apologize to Kier for ripping the progress.gif file off his site...but I searched and searched and searched and could find NOTHING to use for it, so there it is. Make your own if you can. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Anyway this is a pseudo-progress bar for when you are uploading attachments, to show that something is happening.

Real easy, edit one template then upload the attached gif file and it works a treat.

In the newattachment template, right above </head>, place this code:

Code:

<script language="JavaScript">

function render(t) {

        document.getElementById(t).style.display="";

}

</script>

Next find

Code:

                                        <td align="$stylevar[right]"><input type="submit" class="button" name="upload" value="$vbphrase[upload]" style="width:70px" /></td>

and replace it with

Code:

                                        <td align="$stylevar[right]"><input type="submit" class="button" name="upload" value="$vbphrase[upload]" style="width:70px" onClick="render('progress')" /></td>

Finally, look down a few lines and find

Code:

                                </table>

                        </fieldset>

and replace it with

Code:

                                </table>

                                <div align="center" style="display:none;" id="progress"><img src="progress.gif" border="0"></div>

                        </fieldset>

Save and you're done. This should work in IE5+, Mozilla, Firebird, Netscape 7, and most other modern browsers, though I have only tried it in IE and Firebird.

Edit: Instructions are now also in an attached text file, the progress.gif file you need is also attached.

Doesn't seem to work for me. Uploading fails.

Do you get any errors? What browser are you using?

Hi mate. Ive tried using it with IE 6.0 and Firebird 0.7.
Having now looked at this, I have a feeling its not the mod that doesn't work.

Because I reverted back to the original style and am still getting the same error which is that the file simply failed.

Yep, its working great for me now. The problem I was having ahd nothing to do with the mod, it was a known error in the functions file.
Thanks again :)

Yes it is...?!?

It worked fine for me on IE6 SP1/WinXP Pro...? Does the image show at all, or is it just not animating?

Dart1337

Well, it isn't animating. I'm running IE6/ SP1/WinXP Home. I went through the trouble of making my own animated gif and uploaded it and now it isn't animating. I wonder if it's a setting with ZoneAlarm somewhere. *mumbles*

yep it is, turn animation on :)

Like could somebody try to make not a pseudo, but a real upload bar, with real %?

The gif doesnt play it loads the first frame and stops..... kind of odd... this is w/ IE6

12-12-2003 10:01 PM

gif loads first frame, and doesn't animate any after that. I am on XP PRO with IE6. I have tested in mozilla, still no luck.

I have done a new progress graphic, its the same sort of colour scheme as the default gamma release. I did it with flash so I have added the .swf file as well as the gif ( the .swf is better quality).

I agree, it is possible if you use some coding from dynamicdrive's progress bar.
