Hi,

I have a vf page form that has an inputfile tag for uploading a file, and I use commandButton with status and reRender to show  progress text while file loading and then display file's content.
It's working without rerender but when does not show waiting text and when I added <apex:actionRegion>  to my code doesnot pass parametesrs to apex class.

How can I have progress text with inputfile and commandButton to dislpay info from file at same page?

Thank you.

below is my vf code snippet

<apex:commandButton value="Save" action="{!ReadFile}" status="theStatus" reRender="testblock"/>
        </apex:actionRegion>
     <apex:actionStatus id="theStatus">
                <apex:facet name="start">
                    <apex:outputPanel >
                        
                        Please wait...
                    </apex:outputPanel>
                </apex:facet>
    </apex:actionStatus>
      <apex:pageBlock id="testblock">
          <apex:pageBlockSection title="My Content Section" columns="2">   
           <apex:outputText >Namn:</apex:outputText>
                <apex:outputLabel value="{!nameFile}"/>
                   <apex:outputText >Namn1:</apex:outputText>
                <apex:outputLabel value="{!nameFile1}"/>
              <apex:outputText >Namn2:</apex:outputText>
                <apex:outputLabel value="{!nameFile2}"/>
            </apex:pageBlockSection>  

Apex:

 public void ReadFile()
    {
        
        if(nameFile == null)
            nameFile2 = 'File name is null ';
        else
            nameFile2 = 'Yohoooo ' + nameFile;
        
        if(contentFile == null)
            nameFile1 = ' content is null ';
        else
            nameFile1 = ' Yohoooo';
