    You'll probably want to look at AJAX. There are a lot of AJAX tutorials about, a quick google should help

    Can't be done with just PHP. Best looking at a mix of Flash/JS or just Flash for it.

    mfscripts is right... swfupload is using js & flash for uploading progressbar... Most of the uploading progress bars are made using js & flash only..
