title: Direct upload to s3 with progress bar using php
body: <p>In regards to this question <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/478799/upload-file-directly-to-s3-with-progress-bar">Upload File Directly to S3 with Progress Bar</a>, i would like to know if there is an update or another way to do this without using a flash or java applet?</p>
  
  <p>I have tried using this swfupload_s3 <a href="http://swfupload.org/forum/generaldiscussion/2185" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://swfupload.org/forum/generaldiscussion/2185</a>, it works but unfortunately the progress bar shoots to 100% and found this,</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>(1) Local Proxy Servers and some Anti-Virus software will cause this
    behavior. Instead of sending the upload to the server the anti-virus
    software intercepts the upload and accepts the entire file. SWFUpload
    has sent the entire file and displays 100%. This happens quickly
    because nothing has been sent out yet, it's all happened local. The
    anti-virus then scans the intercepted file and sends it on to the
    server. Meanwhile SWFupload is sitting tight at 100%. Once the
    anti-virus has sent the file the server responds and SWFUpload
    "completes"
    <br /><br />
    (2) Known issue.  We have already documented this.  There is no work around. This is how it will work for any client side only uploading
    tool when anti-virus interferes with the upload
