# FormFileSessionProgress
The `FormFileSessionProgress` view helper can be used to render a `` which can be used by the PHP 5.4+ File Upload Session
Progress feature.Unlike other laminas-form view helpers, the
`FormFileSessionProgress` helper does not accept an `Element` as a parameter.
An `id` attribute with a value of `"progress_key"` will automatically be added.
> ### Render early
>
> The view helper **must** be rendered *before* the file input in the form, or
> upload progress will not work correctly.
Best used with the [Laminas\ProgressBar\Upload\SessionProgress](https://docs.laminas.dev/laminas-progressbar/upload/#session-progress-handler)
handler.
See the [Session Upload Progress](http://php.net/session.upload-progress)
chapter in the PHP documentation for more information.
## Basic usage
```php
// Within your view...
echo $this->formFileSessionProgress();
// Result:
```
