1

Hi,

I’m downloading many files at a time, i wants to show the list of
files downloading in pop up. For ex: “Downloading file 1 of 12” etc.
Anyone please help this, how to do this in rails 2.3.14.

Is the filemanager gem is useful for this. Awaiting for replies.

Thanks,
Deepika

The processes of zipping the files puts all the individual files into
one zip file, therefore you are actually downloading just one file,
the zip file, that contains information that allows the file to
unzipped back to the originals. Since you are only downloading one
file it is not possible to show a progress bar saying which file is
currently being downloaded.

Instead of Zip file, is there any other possibility to download multiple
files. I want to download multiple files without zip format and should
show the download files remaining while downloading. is there any other
methodin rails to do like this.

Thanks,
Deepika.
