Hi
Could anyone explain to me how an upload speed test works?
What I'm doing right now is submit a textbox filled to capacity to the server and mark the bookend times to get the trasnfer rate, but I don't know if it eliminates the load time by the server, I don't think my technique is ok cause I have problems understanding exactly how the upload time is calculated
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Try using a hidden form field, and generate 100KB of random data into it just before submitting the form.
These tests are never 100% correct, but the larger the amount of data sent, the more accurate the results will be.

http://www.speedtest.nl is a good example
