[Discuss] Some testers needed



Hi Blu,

I posted an e-mail a while back asking about how to monitor the progress 
of an uploaded file through a web site. Well... I got a very informative 
response from Richard McCluskey (Thank you Richard). I've put it to use 
in creating a web site which has just gone live. Its

    http://httpvault.com

It's an e-mail attachment drop box web site service. There are countless 
times when I've sent that large e-mail attachment which gets bounced 
because it's to big for the recipient mail server to accept. So this web 
site is basically my scratching an itch I've had for a looong time. I 
know there are a bunch of alternative sites which do what I just did, 
but, being the kind of do it your self guy, I like to use my own stuff.

The other side of this is that I actually have a spare business class 
internet service provided by comcast which basically sits idle, so I 
figure why not set up a drop box web site to put the idle bandwidth to 
at least some use...

So, I was hoping that you guys would surf to httpvault.com and kick the 
wheels of the web site for me. It's a php/mysql/javascript composition 
and I have a feeling that it may cause problems depending on which 
browser is used to access the site. I developed the site against the 
latest firefox distributed by Fedora 16.

cheers. Steve.
