# that will process the HTTP Upload.

# Print the progress as we wait...

    # Display the percentage complete and the number of bytes uploaded so far..
    # The total upload size will become set after the upload begins:

    # Sleep 2/10ths of a second.
    upload.SleepMs(200)

# Did the upload succeed?
