    Please see Session Upload Progress which is what PHP offers to obtain progress for a file-upload. Commented Oct 22, 2011 at 16:50

You could save the progress on the server, and have another script return it.

I think thats the only option since uploading a file is a header request, and the page wouldn't be able to send back headers until the file was finished uploading.
