[whatwg] Status bars and progress indicators

[viktor]

well my english its very poor but i wrote some ideas about the progress 
meters.
thinking about i found to tweak a little bit this progress meters to 
generate charts

the code:

<progress type="bar" name="loaderA" action="page_to_load.php" 
direction="horizontal" maxvalue="100" minvalue="0" />

type:
    bar
    status-bar
    numeric
    numeric-bar
    numeric-status
   
name:
    item name reference
   
action:
    page, file, behavior to attach the progress meter
   
direction:
    horizontal
    vertical
   
maxvalue
    maximun value

min value
    minimun value

the pages can handle some type of meta tag or server header response 
attached to the name of the progress meter    
   
<meta progress="loaderA" value="50" />

with dynamic lenguajes can handle like this:

<?php
header("progress:loaderA:50");
?>
