Is there anyway I can tell if a file is currently being downloaded?
Here's the background to the question:
following on from a previous thread...
I suspect that a large file users can download is being corrupted when two people try to download at the same time.
Suggestion was to mirror which I definately need to do but I need a quick solution also
So I figured I could have 4 copies in different folders download0, download1, download2 and download3 then I could check which folder to use next and server that to the user rather than always hitting the same folder.
We're a low traffic site so I doubt I get 5 downloads at a time.
The only problem with this approach could be if I did get 5 I'd automatically put the user back to download0 (say) when infact that download might still be happening on a dialup connection but download1 might be finished because it had a broadband connection.
I currently just give the downloads at http://www.pcpropertymanager.com/v2/downloads/pcpmdemo.exe and I lose control over the download.
