<script type="text/javascript">
	function update_progress(e)
	{
	  if (e.lengthComputable)
	  {
	    var percentage = Math.round((e.loaded/e.total)*100);
	    console.log("percent " + percentage + '%' );
	  }
	  else 
	  {
	  	console.log("Unable to compute progress information since the total size is unknown");
	  }
	}
	function transfer_complete(e){console.log("The transfer is complete.");}
	function transfer_failed(e){console.log("An error occurred while transferring the file.");}
	function transfer_canceled(e){console.log("The transfer has been canceled by the user.");}
	function get_post_ajax()
	{
	  	var xhttp;
	  	if (window.XMLHttpRequest){xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();}//code for modern browsers} 
	 	else{xhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");}// code for IE6, IE5	  	
	  	xhttp.onprogress = update_progress;
		xhttp.addEventListener("load", transfer_complete, false);
		xhttp.addEventListener("error", transfer_failed, false);
		xhttp.addEventListener("abort", transfer_canceled, false);	  	
	  	xhttp.onreadystatechange = function()
	  	{
	    	if (xhttp.readyState == 4 && xhttp.status == 200)
	    	{
	      		document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = xhttp.responseText;
