How to implement file upload progress bar on web?

Hello

I have seen many webpages where the user is able to upload a file and he is given some sort of progress as visual feedback (horizontal bar, percentage etc).

My html form is

<form method="post" action="upload.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<p>Select file to upload: <input type="file" name="selected_file"></p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Upload the file"></p>
</form>

How can I provide the user with a feed during the upload?

Thanks

there are many javascript and flash scripts out there which provide such a option.
