NSISdl question

Can anyone tell me EXACTLY how to show the download progress with NSISdl? When I use NSISdl::download the progress bar jumps 80% of the way immediately and it just says "Downloading" in the status. I want to show how much of the file has downloaded. The documentation doesn't explain it that well imo.

How large is this file?

Does the server return the content length header?

its either 180mb or 10mb. the installer checks to see if you need a full build or a patch. I'm not sure the server does any of that stuff as I don't run the server, but what exactly does it need to do, so I can tell the server people?

Does the same thing happen with the inetc plug-in? Regarding the content length - if you download the file in a web browser and it says "Unknown time remaining" then the server isn't giving the content length header.

I'm trying inetc now. What do I need to do to get my download info to show in it?

this is the line I have

inetc::get /RESUME RETRY_QUESTION "MyURL" $TEMP\vsi.exe

amyone?

You did not provide a error message or a description of the inetc problem, how are we supposed to help?

It is not that hard to figure out:

InitPluginsDir
inetc::get "http://forums.winamp.com/images/buttons/reply.gif" "$PluginsDir\r.gif" /END
