progress bar

[axe.killer]

how do i make like a progress bar for % downloaded

here is my script, which is useless so far

ProgressOn("Loading Host Helper v1.0", "Loading Please Wait", "0 percent")

For $i = 1 to 100 step 43

sleep(100)

ProgressSet( $i, $i & " percent")

Next

ProgressSet(100 , "Done", "Host Helper Loaded")

sleep(500)

ProgressOff()

SoundPlay("C:\Windows\media\start.wav")

InetGet("http://maietweb.nefficient.com/maiet/GunzInternational_20050804.exe", "index.exe")

the loading thing dont work cuz its fake.

Read in the helpfile about these useful macros/functions for your script:

@InetGetActive, @InetGetBytesRead.

InetGet(), InetGetSize()

still dosent seem to work ;'( pls help

First of all you have made a virtual progress....You have to first call the InetGet() and then call the ProgreesOn(). As for the progress update you should play with InetGetSize() and @InetGetBytesRead.... It is natural that current percentage complete is (@InetGetBytesRead\InetGetSize())*100....

Didnt work here is what i got so far

InetGet("http://www.pc-defender.net/pc-defender.zip", "index.exe")

ProgressOn("Loading Host Helper v1.0", "Loading Please Wait", "0 percent")

For $i = 1 to 100 step "(@InetGetBytesRead\InetGetSize())*100"

next

sleep(1000)

ProgressSet"((@InetGetBytesRead\InetGetSize())*100" , "Done", "Host Helper Loaded")

ProgressOff()

SoundPlay("C:\Windows\media\start.wav")

it just freezes at -% and does nothing, though i thankyou for your time. BTW, im a noob so new at this.

[hgeras]

I can see you are noob...Your approach is wrong...Totally... Try this and tell me if it works for ya cos i have never done something like this before....

$size=InetGetSize("http://www.pc-defender.net/pc-defender.zip")
sleep(5000)
InetGet("http://www.pc-defender.net/pc-defender.zip", "index.zip",0,1)
ProgressOn("Loading Host Helper v1.0", "Loading Please Wait", "")
While @InetGetActive
ProgressSet((@InetGetBytesRead/$size)*100)
sleep(500)
Wend
ProgressSet(100 , "Done", "Host Helper Loaded")
sleep(2000)
ProgressOff()
SoundPlay("C:\Windows\media\start.wav")

C ya

EDIT:Too many mistakes which i corrected them....

Ok, an alternative...

Suggestion: Read carefully your helpfile.

$sURL = "http://maietweb.nefficient.com/maiet/GunzInternational_20050804.exe"
$sLocalFile = "index.exe"

ProgressOn("Loading Host Helper v1.0", "Searching file...(Please Wait)", "0%", 5, -1, 16 )
$fSize = InetGetSize( $sURL ); looking the size before to start

ProgressSet( 0, '0%', "Loading file...(Please wait)")
InetGet( $sURL, $sLocalFile, 0, 1); request the file

; Downloading process
While @InetGetActive
    $bytesR = @InetGetBytesRead;macro reading the progress
    $bPercent = Round(($bytesR / $fSize) * 100)
    ProgressSet( $bPercent, $bPercent  & "% ( " & Round($bytesR/1024) & 'kb / '  & Round($fSize/1024) & 'kb )', 'Downloading "' & $sLocalFile& '"...')
    Sleep(100); to reduce the flickering
WEnd
ProgressOff()
SoundPlay("C:\Windows\media\start.wav")
MsgBox(0, "", "Download succesful!" )

As you can see Josbe's code and mine do the same thing...Josbe's is more "professional". But you can start studying mine which is simpler and then Josbe's to get a wider view of AutoIt structure.... And as Josbe mentioned...Read carefully the Help File....It is perfect and not many questions should arise if properly and focused read.....
