GlobalDownload Module 
---------------------
Version: 1.0
Date:    February 2003
Authors: Bob Le Gob

Module Description:
This module provides a way to display progress of all current downloads 
performed through the Download v1.1 module in a centralized zone.
Display is performed in a zone, showing a defined background.
A progress bar in the zone gives an overview of what has been downloaded.
An "activity cursor" shows that downloads are still being processed.

Editor overview:
The Editor allows you to customize the zone background (Bitmap -bmp or jpg-
or color), the color used to show the progress bar and the color used to 
display the "activity cursor".

Actions:
- Start             (S) : activates the module on the client.
- Destroy           (S) : destroys the client.
- Register_Download (C) : linked to the Download modules RegisterDownload event.
- Register_File     (C) : linked to the Download modules RegisterFile event.

Events:
- Started           (S) : client module activated.
- Destroyed         (S) : client module destroyed.
- Ended             (S) : client lost connection, voluntarily or not.

Zones:
- Server interface: no
- Client interface: GlobalDownload (Shows download activity)
                  

Known issues:
- The progress bar may suddenly disappear while the activity cursor and downloads 
keep running. This is due to calculated values in the code which overrun Scol
capabilities while working with the 2D API. A workaround has already been implemented
in the code but it dimishes the risk for the problem, it doesn't solve it. So it
could appear again. Two reasons can explain the problem in your site: the amount
of data being downloaded (Tests have been performed with 9MB - already a fair amount
of data for a scol site - without any problem) and the width of the module's zone.
So if the problem occurs, you can already try to change the width of the zone 
before trying to lighten the downloads. (The above test has been performed with a 
1000 pixels wide zone without any problem).

Problems, questions and suggestions should be reported to bob.le.gob@wanadoo.fr and to 
the Scolring.
