About
XUpload is the powerful upload progress bar of choice for your website. Fully developed using Perl programming, XUpload allows your site to accept any file uploads while displaying a real-time progress bar. XUpload was SibSoft’s first product and is a longtime customer favorite.
Upload progress indicators can be displayed on the upload page, or via a pop-up window. There are multiple viewing options to choose from, like completed percentage, upload speed (measured in kbps), time elapsed and remaining, and the upload file size (if you’re doing multiple uploads - this is a must). These features give you all the file upload details you need. If all those features aren't enough, you can also stop uploads on demand with the simple press of a button.
We know there's nothing worse than a file upload failing without warning. XUpload displays messages to let you know if a file upload fails. XUpload works well on any type of server. If you run virtual/shared or dedicated directories on differing platforms, XUpload can handle the job. Apache, IIS, Linux, or Windows - XUpload works on them all.
That's right - there are no integration issues between XUpload and existing server infrastructures. That's because XUpload internally passes all parameters, allowing the entire process to run completely transparent to your existing environment. You can integrate XUpload with any type of framework, from PHP to JSP, and beyond. The only requirement is that you have a web server, any type of web server, with Perl installed. You won't have to fuss around with Flash or Java - you simply need Perl and DHTML, that's all.
Another unique feature is SibSoft's use of controlled AJAX. You can stop or start AJAX with a simple parameter change to the config file. Progress window themes are customizable, and you also get FREE installation support services with the purchase of XUpload Pro. (This does not apply to the XUpload Free version. See the comparison chart for more details.)
There are currently 2 versions of XUpload: XUpload Free and XUpload Pro. Please look at feature comparison list.

Install instructions
Please note that following install instructions applicable to XUpload Pro only.
For XUpload Free install instructions please refer INSTALL manual included in zip package.
1) Copy all files/folders except "htdocs" folder to your cgi-bin folder (or folder where perl scripts running). Copy all files from "htdocs" into your htdocs folder (html, httpdocs, public_html) or folder which contains your HTML files.
2) CHMOD "uploads" and "temp" folders to 777.
3) Modify XUploadConfig.pm file with your server details (path to script directory and URLs).
4) Edit upload_form.html and change URL-TO-SCRIPT to your cgi scripts folder URL.
That's all! Now you can go to www.yoursite.com/.../upload_form.html and start uploading files with XUpload.
Themes
You can create your own progress window themes. Create new file in Templates folder and use the same tags (
) from default template (default.html).
To use custom template set variable x_tmpl_name in upload_form.html to a filename without extension (e.g. var x_tmpl_name = 'pro1';).
Good luck!
P.S. If you have problems with "File upload complete", this could be caused by mod_security installed in your Apache. Try to add these to .htaccess file in the same folder where upload.cgi is:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SetEnvIfNoCase Content-Type \
"^multipart/form-data;" "MODSEC_NOPOSTBUFFERING=Do not buffer file uploads"
</IfModule>
