ASP.Net Progress Bar Help?

Question

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows of any libraries or decent code that is available for a multi purpose progress bar with an ASP.Net web app? I basically need a progress bar that has one bar, for example of 50%, and then another net to it or on top of it etc that shows 30%?

If anyone could help that would be brilliant.

Thanks in advance.

How do you want to use that progressbar? If it is to show how far some server-side processing is completed, that can be a problem. While you are processing a request, you can't update the screen of the browser, the way you can in a winform application. You would have to move that processing to a separate thread and periodically query how far it is.
