Another thing is that I in fact open file on the server side without download to client.<br />
May be it can be easier ?

Client always gets either file or &quot;not found&quot; page. The question is how to show progress bar until page is actually opens ?<br />

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.
