    <p>I have been working on a file upload script using uploadify that calculates the remaining time of the upload. Uploadify offers a callback called onUploadProgress, which gives me some information on the current upload.</p> <p>I have this working to an extent, but the issue is on safari. The time remaining script is not accurate, it will jump around between say, 10 and 20 minutes remaining on a large file - this is acceptable. On Safari, the deviation is huge, it will move between 0 and 300 minutes remaining, even on small uploads.</p> <p>The idea I had was to average the time remaining by adding up the timeLeft value on each progress (total), and incrementing a value by 1 (numberofpolls), so the average could be calculated by total/numberofpolls. </p> <p>The code below contains the function for CalcTime and the callback for onUploadProgress.</p> <pre><code>var total = 0; var numberofpolls = 0; var avg = 0; function CalcTime(newTime) { total += parseFloat(newTime); numberofpolls++; avg = (total / numberofpolls); return avg; } ... 'onUploadProgress' : function(file, bytesUploaded, bytesTotal, totalBytesUploaded, totalBytesTotal) { // remaining amount of bytes in upload var remaining = totalBytesTotal - totalBytesUploaded; // approx amount of time left. var timeLeft = (((remaining - (Date.now() - timeStarted) * this.queueData.averageSpeed) / this.queueData.averageSpeed) /60)/1000; var tmp_time = CalcTime(timeLeft ); if (tmp_time&lt;=1) var suffix = "Less than a minute remaining"; else var suffix = ~~(tmp_time)+ ' minute(s) remaining'; } </code></pre> <p>The problem isn't in the calculation of timeLeft - as this worked before, the issue is averaging the values of timeLeft via CalcTime. If there is a better way to stop safari doing this, or a better way to calculate it, any help would be appreciated.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
