I was going through the AWDR book on web development with ruby on rails and one of the issues with the old code was it didn't use respond_to to make sure the view used would be the javascript view. Now in some updated examples I've seen people mention they later, when implementing graceful degradation, use request.xhr? to tell if the use...

Does anyone know of any methods to create a file upload progress bar in PHP? I have often heard that it's impossible. I have one idea, but not sure if it would work: have a normal file upload, but instead submit to an iframe. When this is submitted, store the file information (size and temp location) in the session. At the same time, st...
