Doesn't the browser already report that progress to the user in the form of a progress bar?

yeah, but the user will never know when it'll finish.
I don't understand. If the browser reports progress why won't the user know when it's finished uploading the file?

And after 15 minutes it stopped and nothing happened
yes, that's the definition of a progress bar. When it stops it is complete.

with completion percentage
Where are you going to get the percentage information from?

hmmm i'm not sure of that
You ask a question about how to create a progress bar before you know how to get the information to put in the progress bar?

there is a for loop with command that does a time intensive operation, there's a way to calculate this but i'm not sure of it because i didn't write that, i'll just use it.
I'm not saying this just to be rude but you have no idea what you are doing. I can't help you any further.

Web-based progress bars and 'simple' are not words that usually appear together. The reason that almost no websites have a progress bar is because they are very difficult to do, require special features (activex,flash) or work differently in so many different browsers that it's not worth considering.
